How do we know the doctrine of Christ's return is true?

Answered in 9 sources

The truth of Christ's return is validated by Scripture, particularly in Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, which provide clear prophecies about His second coming.

The certainty of Christ's return is grounded in the prophetic word of God, as revealed in the Bible. In Matthew 24, Jesus speaks of His coming in the clouds with great power and glory, and in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, the Apostle Paul reassures believers that the Lord will descend from heaven and gather His elect. Such scripture not only affirms the doctrine but also encourages believers to find comfort and hope in the promise of Christ’s return. As history unfolds, we are reminded that God’s promises are always fulfilled, making His return a blessed certainty for those who believe.
