A:
The Apostle Paul expected the return of Jesus within his own lifetime. From what Paul said, he was preparing people for that second coming, not so much to build a church that would last down through the centuries. The author of the first New Testament gospel, now known as Mark's Gospel, agrees with Paul and also expected the second coming within the lifetimes of some of his own generation. This did not occur as expected, and the later evangelists had to emphasise that no one knows when Jesus will come. Other predictions of the imminent return of Jesus have been made quite frequently down through the centuries.
If there ever will be a Second Coming of Jesus, it seems most unlikely that it will occur in the lifetimes of anyone alive today. There is no preparation appropriate for this life, and we could never know how to begin to prepare in the next, if indeed there is a life after death.
