Christ - the Spiritual-Being/Firstborn Son of God - promising to His Disciples He would leave this world for a "little while" (2000 years), and that He
WILL return and see them again.
John 16:19-28
16:19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them,
Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
16:20
Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into Joy.
16:21
A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. (
Rev. 12:1-5)
16:22
And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN, and your heart shall rejoice, and your Joy no man taketh from you.
16:23
And in THAT day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, He will give [it] you (if you are doing His Will).
16:24
Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your Joy may be full.
16:25
These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father.
16:26
At THAT day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
16:27
For the Father Himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
16:28
I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father (see: John 20:17; Acts 1:9).
Revelation 12:1-5
12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman (Israel) clothed with the "sun" (
Psalm 89:36), and the "moon" under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars (the Crown of Israel - one star per tribe):
12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered (
John 16:21).
12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
12:4 And his tale (of lies -
John 8:35) drew the third part of the "Stars" (
ch. 9:1) of heaven (into his army), and did (cause them to be) cast to the Earth (for their treason against God): and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born (Christ - Second Coming).
12:5 And she brought forth a Man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and [to] His Throne.
Confirmation that Christ's Second Coming will be just
before Judgment Day.
Malachi 4
4:1 For, behold, the Day cometh, that shall burn like an oven; and
all the proud, yea, and
all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the "I AM" Lord of hosts, that it shall leave of them neither
root nor
branch (nothing).
4:2 But unto you that fear My name shall
the Sun of Righteousness (Christ, The Light of the world) arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
4:3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be
ashes under the soles of your feet in The Day that I shall do [this], saith the "I AM" Lord of hosts.
4:4
Remember ye and return to The Law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for
all Israel, [with] the Statutes and Judgments.
4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the Prophet
before the coming of the great and dreadful Day of the "I AM" (
Sura 43:61):
Further confirmation that Christ will be here in a new body which, when it dies, Christ will then be seen coming in the "clouds" with the heavenly host (aka "the eagles"):
Matthew 24:27-31
24:27
For as the lightening cometh out of the East, and shineth even unto the West; so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be (Christ's Second Coming, when He will enlighten this faithless world).
24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
24:29 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:
24:30 And then shall appear the Sign ("Star") 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.
24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet (7th.), and they shall gather together his Elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Christ is the ONLY Way to Father (John 14:6), which art in heaven (Matt. 6:9), our home.
And with regard to the sheep hearing His Voice that the goats will never hear nor recognize, please see Matthew 25:31-46 and John 10:1-18.
So again, everything that was just personally shared is straight out of Scripture, but the goats hear not the Truth.
