One of the chief messages of the Bible is that Jesus Christ will return visibly and in glory at the end of history. First to raise the dead, judge the world, and then destroy all evil and opposition to God. He will thereafter consummate His kingdom. Christians are encouraged to be prepared for the second coming of Jesus Christ with eagerness and joy. Several passages of the Old Testament Bible predicted the second coming of Jesus, Daniel 7:13-14 says:
"...one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven...And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

Also, several passages of the New Testament Bible foretold the second coming of Jesus. In Acts 1:11, two angels announced the second coming of Christ by saying:
"...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."

However, because at least two thousand years have passed without the actual fulfillment of this prophecy, unbelievers and Christians alike are beginning to doubt the reality or possibility of rapture or the second coming of Jesus Christ. Brethren, do not be deceived, JESUS IS COMING BACK AGAIN. This truth is very important to the continued relevance of the Church of God in general and that of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in particular. Focusing on the second coming of Jesus Christ should be our duty, in order to realign the worldview and mindset of Christians and unbelievers alike with the Word of God. The matter is settled in Heaven and the earth has witnessed the fulfilment of almost all the signs of the end times as recorded in the Word of God.

We are witnesses to the increased knowledge, false prophets, wars and rumours of wars, famines and earthquakes, the re-gathering of the nation of Israel, man's inhumanity to man, extreme wickedness, and diverse forms of immorality. The second coming of Jesus will occur unexpectedly at God's appointed time. Be warned, be watchful and be ready.

Jesus came to show the way to overcome the ego and set us on the path of spiritual rebirth to reunite with the Creator.

Asking and waiting for Jesus to come back shows the ego is still controlling us and we are not ready to embark on the journey of spiritual rebirth, which is personal, tough and has a price tag: overcoming ones ego.

Jesus went for a cigarette some 2000years ago

We're witnessed to theses things 2,000 years ago too, in fact humanity had always been witnessed to these things. Nothing new about any if them, in fact there are even less wars, deaths, hunger and even fatal diseases today than in the time of jesus. So boo-yah
