Apostles John and Paul Speak

How many will see Him when He comes?BR-ASI9 229.1

“Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him.” Revelation 1:7.BR-ASI9 229.2

Note.—Christ’s second coming will be as real as was His first, and as visible as His ascension, and far more glorious. To spiritualize our Lord’s return is to pervert the obvious meaning of His promise, “I will come again,” and nullify the whole plan of redemption; for the reward of the faithful of all ages is to be given at this most glorious of all events.BR-ASI9 229.3

What demonstration will accompany His coming?BR-ASI9 229.4

“The Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.” 1 Thessalonians 4:16.BR-ASI9 229.5
