The Lord Jesus shall come again. This is a clear teaching of the Bible (Acts 1:11; Matthew 24:30-31; Matthew 25:1-12; Acts 17:30-31; 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11; 1 Corinthians 16:52).

But the Bible tells us quite clearly that nobody, except God the Father, knows when Jesus will come again (Matthew 24:36) and all attempts of man to figure out the exact date will be wrong. The only thing that can be said with certainty is that his second coming will mean the end of the world (Matthew 24:3) and the judgement of the wicked (2 Thessalonians 1:7-10).

It will be a joyful day for all true Christians because it will mean their full salvation (with resurrected glorified bodies and souls), but a very awful and terrible day for all unbelievers: Matthew 13:49,50; John 5:25-29; 1 Corinthians 4:5; 15:23-24; Phillipians 3:20-21.

Because that day will come suddenly just like “a thief in the night” (1 Thessalonians 5:2) we must be prepared every day for His coming. We must be wide-awake, true  Christians who follow Jesus with our whole hearts.
