Best Answer

no but He might return oneday

Answer:

The Bible reveals very specific prophecies for which to watch for His return. A particular time to "look up" and see Him.

The fifth seal of Revelation 6 represents the coming "Great Tribulation" described by Jesus in Matthew 24:9-28.

In that description, He tells us that global events will threaten to end all life on earth if something doesn't "shorten those days" [verses 21-22].

This takes us to the sixth seal of Revelation 6: the "heavenly signs."

This matches Jesus' description in Matthew 24, found in [verse 29].

"Immediately after the Tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light...".

The earth darkened by what is prophesied to be some sort of "cloud layering" along with stars... meteor showers, asteroids (?) falling to earth will "shorten" those days, which will probably curtail man's destructive activity on earth and delay the treatened end of life on earth.

None of these things have happened yet. And until the world experiences them, Jesus will not return... because He tells us:

"...and THEN shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven..." (Matt.24:30).

The Bible tells us that Jesus is coming back. Most of the world doubts it... but the prophecies are written. So, a person either "believes" it... or he doesn't.

And until we actually "sees" these prophecies being fulfilled, the inner peace, knowledge and understanding of the Holy Spirit upholding a person's belief, faith and hope are what we have.

And the world will continue on its prophesied path toward the day when all life on earth is threatened with extinction. And when that happens, Jesus will arrive just in time to prevent it.

At least, that's what He tells us.

The return of Jesus has been prophesied ever since Mark's Gospel had Jesus saying that the world would end and that they would see him returning in clouds with great glory during the lifetimes of those still living. This did not happen.

There is no reason to expect that Jesus will really return to earth. And just as he has not returned on any prophesied occasion over the last two thousand years, there is no reason to expect that he will return during the present century if he returns at all.

And what would be the purpose of that return? Presumably everyone who deserves to do so will go to heaven, in Christian belief. So, Jesus only has to wait a few years and everyone alive at any particular time will soon be in his presence. If he comes to save the world - save it from what? There will be no great angelic fight on earth between Michael and Satan. Save us from evil? But evil is what people do, of their own free will. Evil is what Hitler and Pol Pot gave us, along with many others. How would Jesus stop future evil dictators or pedophiles doing evil things, if he is unable to do so in heaven?

Saving the world is something that is in our own power. Jesus will not come to save us that responsibility.

Many people think so. Many people don't. He's recorded as having claimed so (John 14:3); it's up to you to decide whether to believe it or not.
