Jesus hasn't returned in the way described by him in Matthew 24 or described by Paul in 1 Thessalonians 4 or 1 Corinthians 15.....it is this event which the scripture terms, 'the day of the Lord'
Job 19:23-27 KJV
23) Oh that my words were now written! oh that they were printed in a book!
24) That they were graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock for ever!
25) For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that
he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26) And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet
in my flesh shall I see God:
27)
Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
Job foretold the time when he would personally see
God standing upon the earth.
That means resurrection, that means Jesus is God, and that mean He will stand upon the earth in the latter day.
Job will see Him with his eye. God's material presence on the earth. Jesus.
Much love!
