Christ's Return Discussed: He is Returning

By Mark Heimbuch

Wrestling with: Ancient predictions of Christ's return in our generation, a timeline for the signs Jesus warns us to watch for, expectations for a period of refinement and patient endurance until the Rapture, and the urgency to make Christ your Lord. Whether you believe Christ will Return in your lifetime or not, let's have this vital discussion ASAP because He can. I wrote this for you because I believe He will. In this book, we will wrestle with the Bible's prophetic statements concerning the mystery of Christ being fully revealed in the Last Days while focusing on the hope this provides. Daniel 12 will serve as a pivotal chapter in establishing a tribulation timeline using an interpretation of it as a parting gift of hope specifically for tribulation believers. We will review two non-Biblical Dead Sea Scrolls that speak of a coming Messiah and introduce the concept of an appointed seven thousand years for mankind from the biblically recorded time of Adam to the end of the Millennium. These ancient sources each predicted the timing for Christ's first coming and together predict His second coming in our immediate future. There will also be discussions about specific dates to watch for based on forgotten holidays celebrated by the Jewish community who left us the Dead Sea Scrolls as well as the timing of future events such as an Asteroid named Apophis that will approach Earth in 2029 and 2036. This book has been written to help you hope for, watch for, wait for, and prepare your hearts for.... Christ's Return. Chapter 1: The Summary Chapter 2: Self-Reflection for the Reader Chapter 3: Ancient Prophecy Found in the Dead Sea Scrolls 1 Enoch and 11Q13 Chapter 4: Timelines and Discussions on Key Bible Prophecy New and Old Testament Chapter 5: Modern-Day Dreams and Data Chapter 6: Parting Thoughts Chapter 7: New Testament Verses on "Things to Come" Chapter 8: Daniel's Verses on the End Time Chapter 9: Prophetic Verses from Other Old Testament Books Old Testament Scripture paints a picture of the Messiah ruling from Jerusalem and all the world's kingdoms worshiping God. Jesus' first coming was a stumbling block to many Jews because this is what they expected. While Jesus' resurrection and ascension did establish the Kingdom of God on Earth with power, there were, and currently are, spiritual and human enemies of His Kingdom and His Kingdom is still operating with mystery through his disciples. This current state of His Kingdom's operation is prophesied to radically change after His second coming. I believe that the faithful who are waiting, watching, and ready in the last generation will be able to stand firm through the severity of the chaos and confusion prophesied to be part of this transition. In Luke 12:56 we see Jesus chastising the religious leaders of his day saying, "How is it that you don't know how to interpret this present time?" If we are alive to witness the events leading up to His second coming, then I believe this challenge by Jesus will apply to our generation as well. This book should motivate you to be watching for the signs of Christ's return. In it, Scripture is laid out for you to evaluate your current interpretations and expectations with the goal of helping you be ready to stand firm until His appearing and our Rapture.
