We believe in THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST.

    His return from heaven will be personal, visible, and glorious - a Blessed Hope for which we should constantly watch and pray. The time of His return is unrevealed but always imminent1.  

    When He comes He will first by resurrection and translation remove from the earth His waiting Church2, then pour out the righteous judgments of God upon the unbelieving world3. Afterwards, He will descend with His Church and establish His glorious and literal kingdom over all the nations for a thousand years4. At the close of those thousand years, also known as the millennium, He will raise and judge the unsaved dead5. Finally, as the Son of David, He will deliver up His Messianic Kingdom to God the Father6, in order that as the Eternal Son, He may reign forever with the Father in the New Heavens and the New Earth7.
