I read your question several times in order to figure out what exactly you were "asking" since it seems like you won't believe the answers anyway (with the last statement). Since you are asking the question, I will assume it is to gain knowledge and will answer with what I can provide and then you can choose to take it how you wish.
Jesus tells us in the Bible how He will return and nobody will be able to recreate what will happen so an imposter may be able to foll the "masses" (but only for a short time) but not those who trust in Christ. I could write much more on this so if you really want to know, send me a message.
Jesus tells us "where" by saying that all people will see him. In other words, everywhere!
Jesus doesn't tell us "when". He said we don't need to know and I'm fine with that. He will return at the right time and that's what matters.
His return will not be to "die again" since He already did that. His return will be to claim His people and defeat evil and hatred forever (in a paraphrased sense). Again, much more about this in the Bible...
Finally, nobody is "lying" to anybody when we talk of the return of Christ. I did not make this up - this is what I TRULY believe. I am merely a messenger. People can choose to listen or ignore.
Last, as a Christian, the return of Christ (or the end of the world or whatever terms people use) is not a fearful thing but a glorious thing! People always make it sound bad, but the BIble makes it sound awesome. Since I believe the Bible...
Be blessed!

Raheem,
According to scripture, Jesus left us with some very detailed warnings, so that His followers would not be deceived. He made it clear, that His feet would not touch the ground at His return. He said that if people say He is in the desert, or in the inner chambers, we are not to go.
It is said, that He will come on the clouds, with great glory, and that it will be as lightening, flashing from east, to west. That His angels will gather His wheat into the barn, but that the chaff will be burned up. He also said that no one knows the day of His return, not even Himself, but only God, and that He would come as a thief in the night, with no warning whatsoever, so be prepared, for it comes at a time when you do not expect it.

The bible states each and every word that Jesus will be coming. Scientists have tried going against the bible, but in the end, they admit that the bible is true. It is a fact.
Christians have very strong faith that Jesus will be coming very soon. We believe that he will come.
It's up to you to believe and accept Him and be raptured when the time comes or reject Him and fade away with the rest of the earth.
Where will you go?
God Bless you! =)

Return of Jesus is a question of belief. Believers of this statement can recognise him if it happened Jesus to return. I wish he did return this time not to die for the sins of the world but to kill the sinners.

Jesus will return with the Rapture of His followers and thos that truly know Him will go with Him. The others will e left on earth for seven years of tribulation and for testifying their face against the devil... then jesus willl come and all who believe will know it is Him. If you are a christian now you won't have to worry about it.

It is said that Jesus's return will be undeniable. He will return in glory, not as a common man.

When we consider the glorious and powerful things that Christ will accomplish at his second coming it becomes even more apparent that he would not return as a human. For a human to lead the spiritual forces involved in carrying out Jehovah’s purposes during Christ’s second presence would be even more incongruous and unthinkable than for a general on a donkey to be at the head of a vast fleet of armored tanks as they charge into battle or for an admiral to use a sailboat to lead a flotilla of superdreadnoughts in an assault. Christ Jesus comes again for the purpose of judging and executing judgment and, as the Head of mighty spirit forces, he is the mightiest and most glorious of them all.—Rev. 19:11-15.
Not only are we not to look for Christ to be visible to human eyes when he comes again but we should not even think of his leaving heaven and coming within the confines of earth’s atmosphere for him to be present. He returns or “visits” the earth as did his Father in times past, by turning his attention to things of earth. Thus his Father did not literally come down or “visit” (King James Version) the Israelites while they were in Egypt or at the time of the birth of John the Baptist; rather, he “turned his attention” to them. Likewise, when he began to call out a people from the nations for his name he did not literally “visit” but “turned his attention to the nations.” (Ex. 4:31; Luke 1:68; Acts 15:14, NW) See also An American Translation and Moffatt
The Scriptures indicate three features to follow Christ’s second coming and use three Greek words to refer to them: his parousia, or presence; his epiphaneia, or “manifestation”; and his apokalypsis, or “revelation.” Many Scriptures speak of the act of Christ’s second “coming” (e′levsis), such as Acts 7:52; but the Christian Greek Scriptures speak also many times of his second presence (par·ou·sía), his being invisibly here, not his being on the way.
In answer to his apostles’ question as to the sign of his second parousia or presence Jesus did not tell them to look in the sky but gave them a composite sign by which they could tell he was present. All the physical facts indicate that this sign has been seen since 1914. Has it not been since that year that we have seen warfare, earthquakes, pestilences and famine to an unprecedented extent? And have we not since then seen persecution of Christians in all nations and the preaching of the good news of God’s kingdom in all the inhabited earth?—Matthew 24; Mark 13; Luke 21.
Additionally, Bible chronology, based on Daniel’s prophecy regarding the “seven times,” when viewed in the light of God’s measuring rule of a “day for a year,” corroborates 1914 as the time for the coming of him “whose right it is,” namely, Christ Jesus.—Dan. 4:1-37; Ezek. 4:6; 21:27.
All these facts regarding Christ’s second presence expose the fallacy of the teaching that Christ comes again in that man applies Christ’s principles to his problems. Jesus told us to expect just the opposite: his parousia would be marked by “increasing of lawlessness,” and it would be a question as to whether he found “faith on the earth.” And Paul foretold that the last days would be “critical times hard to deal with.” For Christ’s return to wait upon man’s applying his principles would mean for Christ never to come.—Matt. 24:12; Luke 18:8; 2 Tim. 3:1, NW.
