2. The second coming of Jesus Christ
This is the point of Apocalypse (revelation) of Jesus Christ
Chapter 1 verse 7 tells us he will come with the clouds to judge and every eye will see Him
Matthew 24 v 29 – 31Jesus speaks of his own coming
After the tribulation
Light into darkness
All the earth seeing Him
Rev 19 v 11 – heaven open – perfect tense – having been opened.
Opened in rev 4 verse 1

3. The second coming of Jesus Christ
Overview
Comes to judge and make war
Eyes like a flame of fire
On His head many diadem crowns
Clothed with a robe dipped in blood
Isaiah 63
Armies in heaven followed Him
Jude 14 tells us there will be ten thousands of His saints among them
Matt 24 v 31 – the elect gathered from one end of heaven to the other
Disciples promised they will sit on thrones and judge the 12 tribes with Jesus
Probably a mixture of angels and men - Rev 17 v 14
We will not wet our sword – He will slay them with the sword of His mouth
He Himself treads the winepress of God’s wrath

4. The second coming of Jesus Christ
He comes on a white horse
The triumphal entry – white donkey – was not the triumphal entry
This fulfilled Zechariah 9 v 9, but was not the white horse of battle
This was Christ the Lamb not Christ the Judge
Acts 1 v 6 to 8
Is it at this time? – He said He would restore the kingdom but would not tell them the time.
Acts 1 v 11 – He will come in like manner
Both the fact and the manner of His coming is foretold.
Is there a description of this more magnificent coming in the Old Testament
Psalm 45 – the regal and mighty Lord rides into history a second time

5. The second coming of Jesus Christ
There are some parallels here with Jewish weddings
Virgins go out to meet the groom as he comes – Matt 25
Bridegroom comes and many with Him
Sometimes would ride in to get his bride on a horse
Same imagery in Song of Songs chapter 3
The bridegroom’s entry was always spectacular
The next few verses should be seen as the spectacular revelation of Jesus Christ at His second coming
Let’s review his spectacular names

6. The second coming of Jesus Christ
Reliability
Faithful and true – is in the present tense – ‘is and continues to be’
Names are not just labels in the Bible, but indicate character, attributes and qualities
1000 references to the name of the Lord in Scripture – always above other names
Chapter 1 v 5 – faithful and true
Chapter 3 v 15 – faithful and true
Deuteronomy7 v 9 – a God who delivers on His promises
The two persons at the ascension predicted the 2nd coming and its manner

2 Thess 3 v 3 – he protects us from Satan (evil = the evil one)
2 Tim 2 v 13 and Heb 13 v 5 – He’ll never leave us or forsake us

7. The second coming of Jesus Christ
1 john 1 v 9 – forgives because He is faithful
John 7 v 18 – seeks the glory of the Father, not His own glory
1 John 5 v 20 tells us He is true – the only genuine God
‘This’ is a singular masculine demonstrative pronoun and must agree with the noun it modifies in gender and number. This is the true God!
Titus 2 v 13 – application of the Granville Sharpe rule God and Saviour – Jesus is both.
Verse 12 – a name only He knew
To name someone is to have authority over them – no one has!
Isaiah 9 v 6 Hid name is wonderful (incomprehensible/secret)
Judges 13 v 15 – secret (wonderful)
Psalm 139 – God’s omniscience is too wonderful (incomprehensible)

8. The second coming of Jesus Christ
Isaiah 28 v 29 – wonderful in counsel
Also called ‘The Word of God’
John 1 v 1 the word was ‘with’ God – ‘Pros’ – has the sense of facing or equal to hence: “the word was God”
Verse 14 – the word became flesh – Ginomai – became – pre existed and became flesh
John 14 v 9 – if you have seen me you have seen the Father – He is God
‘Was God’ – no definite article – God among no others
God is substance, essence and being

9. The second coming of Jesus Christ
1 John 1 v 1 – 3 – we share the Father and Jesus in common
Koinonia – fellowship (sharing in common)
Not common ideas, likes and dislikes but Jesus, who we share in common because we are His possession.
