What does the Bible say about the return of Jesus Christ?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that Jesus will return in glory to gather His people and judge the world.
The return of Jesus Christ is a central theme of biblical prophecy, emphasizing His second coming in great power and glory. In Acts 1:11, angels declare that Jesus will return in the same way He ascended into heaven. This promise is reinforced throughout Scripture, including in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, where it describes how the Lord will descend from heaven, raising the dead in Christ and gathering His living followers to meet Him. The return signifies both the culmination of God’s redemptive history and the promise of eternal fellowship with Him for believers. It also serves as a somber warning of judgment for those who do not obey the Gospel, as indicated in 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9.
