most biblical sources irrelevant[edit]

most biblical sources at the beginning of the article refer to assension to heaven or the kingdom of god, not the second coming. check them out. unless i don't know of some kind of connection between all those that makes them the same. even if some kind of logic makes the same it has to be addressed. without it, they are logically different things.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.76.99.106 (talk • contribs) 04:10, April 20, 2006

It is relevant because that was when He promised to return.

Imbalanced Representation[edit]

Each paragraph outlining basic religious beliefs has at least a sizable paragraph summarizing the beliefs the religious set of ideas, with one exception. May I suggest adding a few summarizing points about the beliefs of the Latter-day Saint beliefs on the second coming, rather than leaving it saying that the Latter-day Saints have many notable distinctive and specific beliefs? Just because there are many differences in Latter-day Saint beliefs and the specificity of those beliefs does not mean that they are not worth summarizing as is done with every other group. I would suggest at least a few points so that readers have some idea of what those distinctions are, not just knowing that there is a distinction. If we're going for brevity, let's be brief across the board and say that each group simply has distinctive beliefs. I would be happy to attempt a Latter-day Saint summary if there is agreement. Thank you.

Islamic contradictions[edit]

According to the article: How can Jesus be THE Messiah but also only A prophet? THE puts him above all others while A prophet is just one figure among many. How can Muslims believe that Mary was a virgin while being pregnant with Jesus while denying him the title "son of God"?? If Jesus has no biological father which Christians and Muslims both agree on who else could be the father to Jesus other than God? Clearly if you believe that Mary was a virgin you have to accept God as father and creator of Jesus. 93.206.54.181 (talk) 02:54, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Link to German article?[edit]

The German article Parusie https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parusie lists https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parousia as English equivalent, which forwards to Second Coming. There is no path back from Second Coming to Parusie through the language menu. 78.102.93.178 (talk) 10:21, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bibleverse link (false?) errors[edit]

Would someone with experience with {{bibleverse}} please fix these? They are in Second Coming#Terminology Second Coming#References as "(Stephanas, Fortunatus and Achaicus,[3] Titus,[4] and Paul the Apostle[5])". The links seem to work OK, but there is a big red "Template:Bibleverse with invalid book" which inhibited me from clicking on the link. Thank you Adakiko (talk) 20:22, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
