Everyone who believes in the Bible knows that Christ will come a second time however, many people don't understand what will happen when he comes.

Matthew 24:3- As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"

The Apostles are clearly asking Jesus about two events in this verse, first his coming and second the end of the age.

Matthew 24:30-At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. 31And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

This verse testifies Jesus will come a second time on the clouds to GATHER THE ELECT.

2Thessalonians 1:6- God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

In this verse, Jesus will return in blazing fire to bring punishment, can these two events be the same?

Of course not, then which should occur first? Jesus brings fire, punishment, and judgment or he gathers the elect? Obviously he must gather the elect first however, in my next post we will see through the Bible why Jesus must come on the clouds.

Thanks to our Heavenly Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and Heavenly Mother for revealing all the mysteries contained in their words.
