How do we know that Jesus will return?

The return of Jesus Christ is firmly established in Scripture through His own words and the prophetic writings of the apostles. In John 14:3, Jesus reassures His disciples, saying, 'If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.' This promise from Jesus serves as a foundational truth for Christians who await His return.

Moreover, prophecies throughout the Old and New Testaments, such as those found in the writings of Paul and the prophetic figures like Enoch in Jude 1:14, speak to the certainty of His return. The Apostle Paul's teachings in 1 Thessalonians 4 assure believers that Christ will not only come back but will do so with a loud command and with the heavenly hosts. Collectively, these teachings create a robust theological framework that assures believers of Christ's return, providing hope amidst trials.
