The Second Coming


A web page that appears to be associated with the Seventh Day Adventists has a Flash presentation that illustrates what scripture says about the second coming (click here).

This was brought to my attention by my father-in-law.

It was interesting reading the Seventh Day Adventists Fundamental Beliefs page, particularly item numbers 25, 26, 27, and 28. The page had a copyright claim at the bottom or I would have posted them here. However, I included some phrases (paraphrased) which I found interesting and somewhat different than my current understanding of end-time prophecy. The added emphasis is mine.

At Jesus' return, the righteous deceased will be resurrected, and together with those living who are righteous, will be glorified and taken up to heaven, not so for the unrighteous, they will die.

...death is a state of unconsciousness for all people.

The millennium, a thousand-year reign of Christ... ...During the mellennium the rest of the dead (the wicked) will be judged; the earth will be void of human beings and utterly desolate. Earth will be solely occupied by Satan and those under his dominion (his angels).
