Theres a rule about copying and pasting walls of text into your posts... ye know...
This noble being, who calls himself “the Christ,” stands so tall that he is easily seen.
I understand this is a take on the situation which gets spread around but it is just not accurate. The prophecy was for a glorious appearing just as there was in the days of Moses, where YHWH would manifest himself and be a warrior for Israel to defeat their enemies and to cause a flourishing in the land and that his presence would be there in the temple continuously.
They merely overlooked that he would come in glory the second time he came and not as the 'suffering servant like he did the first time.
Right, so no need for Jesus to come back. Revelation is not talking about a second coming but is the spiritual telling of what already happened and how it was prophecy fulfilled but on a spiritual level.
. . . Jesus absolutely fulfilled all the Messianic prophecies from the OT perfectly to the letter . . .
I haven't really thought about that up until you just asked me. I was never taught that, or actually any creed, for that matter. If it says that, then I would say, no, that God judges continually.

I guess you don't believe the Apostle's Creed? The part where it says "He shall come again to judge the living and the dead."

The creed is basically the most fundamental summation of Christianity.

So the sixth commandment isn't about the act of murder, it's about the emotions of anger, greed, etc. behind the murder. OK. I'm thinking you should reread that part and talk to a real ambassador of Christ. You're getting bad advice. a reply to: Locoman8
