VIDEO: Billy Graham is Convinced that Jesus is Coming. Are You Ready for Him?

This sermon is from 1969, but it is just as accurate and legitimate now as it was when it was first told to the people. The world isn’t ready for Jesus’ second coming to Earth and many do not believe that He will indeed come back to us.
But He will come and He will change all you know and decide who is worthy and who is not. Do you think that you are ready for Him? Think again and try harder. Be the best you can possibly be.

Here is some information on the second coming of Jesus, provided by Wikipedia.

The Second Coming (sometimes called the Second Advent or the Parousia) is a Christian concept regarding the future return of Jesus to Earth after his “first coming” and ascension to heaven about two thousand years ago. The belief is based on messianic prophecies found in the canonical gospels and is part of most Christian eschatologies. Views about the nature of Jesus’ Second Coming vary among Christian denominations and among individual Christians.

According to historian Charles Freeman, early Christians expected Jesus to return within a generation of his death and the non-occurrence of the second coming surprised the early Christian communities.

Most English versions of the Nicene Creed in current use include the following statements about Jesus: “…he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. … We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.”

It is the traditional view of Roman Catholics and Orthodox Christians, preserved from the early Church, that the second coming will be a sudden and unmistakable incident, like “a flash of lightning”. They hold the general view that Jesus will not spend any time on the earth in ministry or preaching. They also agree that the ministry of the Antichrist will take place right before the Second Coming.

Orthodox layman Alexander Kalomiros explains the original Church’s position regarding the Second Coming in River of Fire and Against False Union, stating that those who contend that Christ will reign on earth for a thousand years “do not wait for Christ, but for the Antichrist.” The idea of Jesus returning to this earth as a king is a heretical concept to the Church, equated to “the expectations of the Jews who wanted the Messiah to be an earthly King.” The Church instead teaches that which it has taught since the beginning—Christ will not return to earth, rather the Kingdom of Heaven, the New Jerusalem, will be established through the Resurrection of the dead.

In modern culture, Jesus Christ returning to earth has been a theme in several movies and books, for example: “Black Jesus” – Comedy Central Adult Swim Television Series (2014), “Left Behind” – Film- and book-franchise (1995), “The Seventh Sign” – 1988 film, “End of Days” – 1999 action-adventure film, “The Second Coming: A Love Story by Scott Pinsker” – 2014 novel.
