Christians...about this..."second coming"?

Question

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071028103034AA4kHGX&r=w&pa=FZptHWf.BGRX3OFMiDdQWcBaYf_SqbYwgP3pmfi3V4i74L2mOw--&paid=answered#P8VPKHK_G0N4EzLwN2iP (hope it works, if not, here it is) What if someone comes up to you and says that they're God? What would you do?

Now, a majority of Christians said that they'd try and show him/her that there's only one God, or at the least give him/her no consideration. But here's something for you. You guys say that the End of Times is near, well, what if the same person that says "I'm God" is...well...Jesus...How would you know if that was Jesus or not? What if he/she is and you just tried to convert them or called cops, etc.? I'm just wondering....no need to be mean, merely wondering.

Answer 1

we have this book in the Bible, called revelation, that tells us the context under which it will or has happen(ed)

Answer 2

The serious answer is:


1Th es 4:16
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
(KJV)

This verse refers to what modern Christians call the Rapture.

Some sound will be heard and recognized by the Born-Again Christians. When they look up they will see Jesus in the clouds.

This is the prophecy. So no man on earth can fit this description ever.

If I meet one of these "I am God" types face to face I will just tell them -- you are filled with the spirit of the Anti-Christ.

I met a follower of a false Christ in Siberia. We were in a Moscow Airport. He was really nice until I brought up scriptures from the Bible. At this point he became very hostile. Not the proper reaction from those who actually believe in the Bible.

I expect a non-believer to be skeptical. I actually respect this. But I cannot stand a so-called Christian who does not know or understand the Bible.

Answer 3

Well, that is interesting. Did you happen to see this person descend from the sky on a white horse with eyes of fire? Were his robes dipped in blood? Was this after a bunch of really scary things happened?

If so, then yeah, you'd probably know it was Jesus AKA the Word of God.

Answer 4

Luke 21:27: "At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory."

He won't be just walking up to anyone.

EVERYONE will see it...and EVERYONE will know immediately who it is....

I Thessalonians 4:16-17 "For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air."

That leaves no room for maybe....even for atheists.

Answer 5

Matthew 24:27

For 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.

Jesus' second coming wont be subtle

Answer 7

Brethren,

And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:

For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
