[QUOTE="Somebodyelse'sGrandpa, post: 2478003, member: 738464"] Along with reading Matthew 24, the following will help you to understand and recgonize God's arrival: http://asvbible.com/matthew/24.htm Acts 1:9-11 specifies that Jesus was obscured by clouds as he left, and that he would return in the same way: "9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." (KJV) Revelation 1:7 also specifies that Jesus is coming in the clouds, even though every eye would see him: "Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen." (KJV) Matthew 24:27-30 not only specifies that the sign of Jesus' presence* would be in heaven, and that he would be seen in the clouds of heaven, but also explains that the manner in which every eye would see Jesus is indirectly, as the flash from lightning that's obscured by clouds is visible, reflected from the opposite direction, and as a carcass could be spotted by the scavengers clustered around it: "27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory." (KJV) He is invisible, because he said not to believe it, if anyone says, "here is Christ". - Matthew 24:23 That is why Jesus described so thoroughly the sign of his presence in Matthew 24. If he were visible, what's the point of giving us this sign? Please read Matthew 24, and see if doesn't describe what you see around us! Yes, everyone sees the sign, but how many ignore it while waiting for a visible Jesus? Therefore, they mourn. [/QUOTE]
