But Jesus remained silent and gave no answer. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?” “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Mark 14:61-62 NIV
In the sham legal trial, on the day of his crucifixion, Jesus himself promised the High Priest that he would return to earth one day. Christians from that time till now, have been waiting for this promise to be fulfilled. It seems a long time ago and plenty have scoffed and thought followers were just believing fairytales. However, the prophecies of the Bible have always proved true, so we can depend upon God to bring about this magnificent and glorious event in his own time. General Macarthur, was driven out of the Philippines in the war, and he promised to return. The General kept his promise on Oct 20, 1944 and God will keep his too. Hold on to your faith for our God is trustworthy and he will do it.
