The second coming of Christ is the
blessed hope of the church, the grand climax of the gospel. The Saviour's
coming will be literal, personal, visible, and worldwide. When He returns, the
righteous dead will be resurrected, and together with the righteous living will
be glorified and taken to heaven, but the unrighteous will die. The almost
complete fulfillment of most lines of prophecy, together with the present
condition of the world, indicates that Christ's coming is imminent. The time of
that event has not been revealed, and we are therefore exhorted to be ready at
all times.
