So lets begin at 2 Thess 2
Now regarding the
arrival (coming) of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to be with him 2 Thess 2:1.
(You may find JW's teach
"Parousia" to mean his invisible presence. (Maybe
@Keiw @Aunty Jane can confirm this) However, it means a literal, visible presence as the below text show:
2 Cor 7:6 — The coming of Titus
1 Cor 16:17 — The coming of visitors to Paul
Phil 1:26 — Paul's coming to the Philippians.
I believe the JW's believe in an invisible presence because they have Jesus in Heaven with their 144,000 "special ones"...but this is not the meaning of the word nor its application here. Christ will return visibly to the earth to establish God's Kingdom once more.
