What does the Bible say about the return of the Lord?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible teaches that the Lord will return suddenly, like a thief in the night, bringing judgment and fulfillment of God's promises.

Scripture teaches that the return of the Lord will be sudden and unexpected, described in 2 Peter 3:10 as coming 'as a thief in the night.' This signifies a moment of great surprise for the unprepared and a fulfillment of God's promise to His people. The day when the heavens and earth will pass away is a certainty, as stated throughout the New Testament, highlighting God's sovereignty and the just nature of His judgment. Believers are encouraged to be watchful and ready for this day, as it will come to pass in accordance with God's perfect timing, which is rooted in His long-suffering and desire for all of His elect to come to repentance.
