Yes we do all need Him. But nobody knows the day nor the hour when the son of Man shall come. All we can do is interpret the signs of the times, and so far? Just about all of them are in place.
Does not mean we are in the official end times, as in the end of the world, but many believe we are dawning on a new (renewed era). I do believe that there will be an intervention of God very soon for mankind and also believe this era is winding down (or winding up, however you see it).
Please read Isaiah 65 and keep reading. The time he speaks of is a time of renewal for the world and for everybody. It is not the end of the world, for it is not eternal, it is a period of time. Within that period, people will have a much longer life span, health, and continue to marry and give birth. That is a time we are awaiting, a springtime for the earth. It is not a time of perfection as such, but it will be a splendid era and good will rule, rather than the evil we're now seeing.
As for the end of the world? That is when Christ comes for the final last time to gather together all the living and then dead to pronounce their sentence for eternity (either Heaven or Hell). Once this occurs, no more will people die, no more will people be given in marriage or give birth. Heaven and earth will be joined.
Again, it is not possible for anybody to perfectly interpret each event, when it will happen and exactly how. God has made it very clear to us that we are to live eachday as if it were our last, as nobody knows when their last hour is.
He has however told us to look at the signs of the times! and believe me, they are all around us and literally screaming to wake up!

If we knew exactly when Jesus were coming back, he wouldn't be much better than Santa Claus.
Whose to say he hasn't returned already and been put to death by lethal injection? Or lived a nice, quiet life and died peacefully? He could be your next door neighbor. How would we know? If Jesus appeared and announced himself as "Jesus," he would be mobbed. Why do you think he kept his first coming a semi-secret?

Nobody in the world knows when Jesus is gonna come back, but it's gonna be on the judgement day. We all need Him right now, but you should realize that Jesus is with you right now, and He is helping you 24/7, in His own way, you just don't know it.

Noone has an exact time and date but in the bible it says when all nations come together and unite as one and all this really strange stuff happens like the rapture and the prophet comes. sometime after all this happens it won't be in our life time though. It sure is nice to hear i'm not the only who needs him like that. God Bless You...

Actually no one knows the exact day or hour. Even Jesus doesn't know. The only one who does know it God the Father. I agree we all need him.

Matthew 24:36 "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
So that means nobody knows.

Jesus is in meetings all day... and tomorrow. He may have an opening next week sometime. Would you like to make an appointment?

People have been waiting for 2000 years.
I suggest you find something else to do with your time. Sorry, but I don't think he's returning in our life time.

No one on this earth can answer that. Only the Almighty can.
