Why Understanding “The Return of Messiah” is Important - 03/01/25
Teaching through the book of Zechariah at our Saturday Shabbat services has been an amazing experience for me. I've learned so much and our congregations were so excited to take a "deep dive" into the promise of our Messiah's return, the restoration of Israel and the establishment of the Messianic Kingdom.
Over the next few weeks at our services I will be speaking on the return or second coming of Yeshua our Messiah. Many suppose that the promise of the return of Yeshua is of secondary concern; yet, interestingly, it is prominent in the Scriptures.
It is said that there are some 300 prophecies of the first coming of Messiah in the Hebrew Scriptures, and nearly three times as many prophecies of Yeshua's second coming. Sometimes these second coming prophecies are inseparably connected to first coming prophecies, but not always.
The Lord is coming and He's coming soon. If we need to repent and turn to Him we should, because He's coming soon. If we need to love Him (or perhaps love Him more) we should, because He's coming soon. Are you ready for His coming?
Maranatha! Even so come, Lord Yeshua!
