The Return of Christ


The Return of Jesus Christ to earth is the culminating event of human history. For critics and scoffers of biblical history, fulfilled prophecy will stand as a credible witness against their arrogance. Respected scholar, J. Barton Payne lists 1817 prophecies in the Bible. He lists 191 specific prophecies concerning the first advent of Jesus the Messiah and Savior. Jesus Christ literally fulfilled all of these predictions.

The Bible contains many references concerning the second coming of Christ. It is mentioned 380 times in the New Testament alone. Twenty-three out of the twenty-seven New Testament books speak of this glorious event. Since all of the prophecies concerning Christ's first coming were precisely fulfilled, why would any thinking person question Christ's return?
