Second Coming
The Second Coming refers to the
Christian
and
Islamic
belief in the return of
Jesus Christ
to the earth, an event that will fulfill aspects of
Messianic prophecy
, such as the general
resurrection of the dead
,
last judgment of the dead and the living
and the full establishment of the
Kingdom of God
on earth (also called the "Reign of God"), including the
Messianic Age
. Views about the nature of this return vary among
Christian denominations
. The original Greek of the New Testament uses the term 'Parousia' (παρουσία), the "appearance and subsequent presence with" (in the ancient world referring to official visits by royalty). The Second Coming is also referred to as the Second Advent, from the Latin term "adventus," for "coming." Teachings about the last days comprise
Christian eschatology
.
