I don't think that his return is soon at all. I believe that when the church of God is restored to what it is supposed to be, then Jesus will return, but I've heard my whole life that he is coming soon and I don't believe it. What do you think?

Chaos rules the world.
If there was ever a time that needed his appearance, it's now.
To answer your question, no, it's not time yet.

The Bible has Jesus quoted as saying that the end of times would be about 2,000 years ago. Matthew 23:36, Matthew 24:29-35, Matthew 16:28, Mark 13:30-31, Mark 9:1, Luke 9:27, John 21:22, and Luke 21:25-33 are all evidence of this point (I believe so at least). Read those verses and decide what you think he's talking about. Some of them even have so-called "signs" of the end of times. Check especially Matthew 24:29-35. Jesus says: "the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky...Amen, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away."

I think that I've heard similar ideologies to yours. I do reject them though.
He won't return until after the Earth goes through a period of time called the Great Tribulation. Before that can happen, he will take the church, his 'body' so to speak, out of the way. God's wrath will pour out on the Earth after that.
After a 7 year time period, that's when Jesus will come back. Those that are with Him will return also. The Earth will then face a period of time called the Millenium, where sinful man is still present, yet will worship God from Earth until that 1000 year time period is ended.

No, i'm no longer waiting, I nonetheless gotta get all the way down to the ironmongery shop, p.c.. up some somewhat long nails and a pair of 6 foot boards.

That is not the point. The point is that his return could happen any time. We do not know what time that is, so we have to prepare ourselves. We also do not know how much time we have left on this earth, so we must strive to be closer to Him.
Besides, time is relative. To God, a minute is like a million years and a million years is like a minute. Who is to say what he would mean if he said "soon"
Some bible scholars also say that the word for "soon" actually meant "quickly" which means when it comes it will be fast, so prepare yourself.
The kingdom of God is at hand!
God bless.

Do not mock Jesus ! This can be attributed to the DA Vinci code. You people have been brain washed ! Yes he his returning soon, read revelations. The apocalypse is near. Look at the onslaught in the middle east ?

The Bible tells us that he will come at a time that no one will know or expect. This inclines me to believe that if everyone is saying the end is near, it probably isn't. And the things that are going on now have been going on since the beginning of time.
No one knows. All we can do is make sure that our heart and soul are ready, and otherwise go on living and planning for many tomorrows.

I truly believe Jesus is coming back really soon the signs are all there, and he isn't going to rapture us christians so we will miss the time of trouble so study to show yourself approved, we aren't getting out that easy. Satan's final attack will no t be fun, but if you are safely in Jesus you will make it through!

Well you could be right who can really tell. For sure though it is nearer now than when you first heard about it.
The fact of the matter is that if you die now it is the end of the world for you so it's better to be ready at all times for the coming of Jesus.
