Many are led in the world by the mind and not the Spirit.
Only Spirit provides clarity, not 'worldly logic' and all it's illusions in a hall of mirrors.

No - The Second Coming of Christ is a threat to all established authority, the only recourse they have is to call him evil.

Accodring to LaHaye and Lindsey the Christian parousia involves killing people too...No Christ today anyway would see a point in killing people, or a challenge for that matter.
19 Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse and his army. 20 But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who had performed the signs on its behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. 21 The rest were killed with the sword coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse, and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh.

One who does not Know the Father on this earth, does not Love the Father. One who does not Love the Father is not in Alignment with His Spirit that Reveals what textbooks of men cannot.
Take a personal Walk with Him if you so choose. We all have a choice, as not all Faith is blind--He will show you that.
If only you Knew what he has shown me.
Or you can continue with limited worldly based 'theories' and 'logical' perspectives.
I do not adhere with the teachings of men, I ask that I Adhere with Him to Lead and Guide always. He has Served well for my trust and devotion.
I am not the one displaying a LIMITED VIEW. The fact that you used the term...LIMITED WORLDLY....shows all that you have not a clue to what I was talking about.
Another example of your thoughts and minds limitations is your concept of GOD having GENDER.
You are only speaking from concepts you have be TAUGHT and have not used your abilities...if you have them...to consider alternatives.
If we take this principle one step further.....thus define the conditions of our world and the actions of Men that are a product of GODS creation as you believe....then by logic of observation....we have a very POOR GOD who is supposedly watching over us.
Jesus taught love and understanding and desired Men to love their brothers and sisters reguardless of their beliefs or even actions. I think this a good teaching with the exception of the actions part for I know and have experienced all to often and well....that the most dangerous and EVIL of Men....is a Man of uncompromising faith. There is no greater danger to the fate of Mankind than those who think in absolutes.
