Many of these same prophets above have prophesied of His coming return.

Then the Lord will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights on a day of battle. On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south.

Zechariah 14: 2-4

The King will return.

Today we thank God for the greatest gift ever given and thank Him for His fulfilled word, as we hold on to what has been spoken.

What a hope we have!

Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
