They will think the 1st is the anti-christ, the second the real one, and then when the third comes their heads will explode because they weren't prepared for that.

Ask the real Jesus. He'll tell you. Or wait.....how do we know the original guy was really Jesus?

Do their actions back the claims that they make. Just as when Jesus was here in the past, if His claims did not match what He said and the prophecies He was supposed to fulfill, then no one would have seen Him as valid. If someone claims to be Jesus and does not fulfill the prophecies then He would be seen as a fraud. And the claims that are made are so amazing, there will be no doubt that it is Jesus.
C.S. Lewis said that there are three options for Jesus according to the claims He made when here. He either has to be a lunatic, a liar, or God. There is no room for any other option if you look at His claims. But the evidence that He was God is seen in the fulfillment of the prophecies and claims that He made.

The pop-theology version of rapture is based on an interpretation of figurative language which conflicts with clear language in scripture.
Peter clearly indicates that EVERYTHING will be destroyed at Jesus' return.
2Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow to keep his promise. He is not slow in the way some people understand it. He is patient with you. He doesn’t want anyone to be destroyed. Instead, he wants all people to turn away from their sins. 10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar. Fire will destroy everything in them. God will judge the earth and everything in it. 11 So everything will be destroyed. And what kind of people should you be? You should lead holy and godly lives.
What about Jesus' kingdom? Jesus told people during his lifetime that they would see the kingdom before they died. HE ALSO SAID THAT HIS KINGDOM "WAS NOT OF THIS WORLD." It IS HERE and JESUS IS REIGNING.
Luke 9:27 “What I’m about to tell you is true. Some who are standing here will not die before they see God’s kingdom.”
John 18:36 Jesus said, “My kingdom is not part of this world. If it were, those who serve me would fight. They would try to keep the Jews from arresting me. My kingdom is from another place.”

Hi 6000,
When Jesus returns this time, it will not be as it was when he came before. Yes there will be false prophets, there will be anti- christ but when Jesus returns it will be in his Glory and it will be such that everyone will recognize and acknowledge that he is the son of God. Signs will follow him and prophecy will be fulfilled. There will be no doubt even for the unbeliever.
This I know to be true!

Oh, you'll know. I don't think you're going to be happy, but you'll definitely know when Christ returns.
Phillipinans 2:9-11
"Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."

The Bible says in Matthew 24:30 "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory" Only God can do that. God Bless you.

As I believe, once Jesus comes back and takes us all to paradise there will be no living thing left on earth. So I don't think that will be a problem. Plus the bible talks about how every eye will see him.

I am not worry about that one bit, Because when Jesus does come back, I will be in heaven before any other can claim to be Jesus. You thought you had me did you.

The question is moot. Jesus died a lonnnnng time ago, and isn't coming back. He was a great guy. Son of God? Not so much.
The truth is if he really did come back today and say "hey I'm the son of God" he'd be institutionalized. I guess he could ask his dad for assistance, but you see what that got him the first time around.

Matthew 24
Specifically...
Matthew 24:24-31
24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25Behold, I have told you before.
26Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29Immediately 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:
30And then shall appear the sign 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.
31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Read your Bible a little more carefully and I think you'll be able to figure out when the real Christ returns.
I'll give you a clue, when Christ returns it will be in His glorified state and not in a human form.
