Hey mods, I noticed that we do not have a 'Second Coming' category, so I thought I would post this here. Please feel free to move if necessary. Thanks! Guys! I just found something very cool. How about what looks like a description, in detail, of the Second Coming... but not in Revelation... in Psalms! Psalms 18:6-15

yardstick , hello my brother. I think a thread for the second coming is a great idea. Here's a question for you, since you started this one? People often conflate the second coming and the rapture and many people even say "second coming" but actually they are referring to the Second Advent - the entire series of events including the rapture, and the events surrounding the Tribulation- just before, during and just after. yardstick, i don't want to put words in your mouth, but i know people have very different understandings of what the phrase means. Are you meaning specifically the event where Christ comes back with his Bride and touches his feet on the Mt of Olives? For the sake of clarity, do you see this as the Day of the Lord and separate from Harpazo or the same thing? Check out this vivid description of the Terrible day of the Lord in Zephania 1:14,15 Day of judgment, wrath, punishment, darkness and doom. There's also a trumpet which matches Paul's description. Maranatha Disciple4Life

Maranatha Disciple4Life I agree with your statement which I bolded and colored above. I believe there is a distinction. I believe that there is a general sense 'Day of the Lord' (i.e.: OT passages with 'in that day' are indicative - see Pastor J. Vernon McGhee's opinions on this), which is either the full 7 year Trib, or at least the second half. I also believe there is a specific sense, which is the final day, on which the Lord descends as described in that Psalms passage and in Revelation. The jury is still out on whether it can be both, but if I was painted into a corner right now, I would choose the single day. Which would mean that there are lots of ways of describing the same event. Some of which use A LOT of hyperbole, rather than literal verbiage.
