Thank you so much to Kristie Riggs for teaching our lesson on Sunday - The Second Coming of Jesus Christ. We will miss having her teach our Relief Society lessons, but she will be a wonderful advisor to the Mia Maid class!
The lesson centered around 5 things that the Savior will do when he comes again.
1. He will cleanse the earth.
2. He will judge His people.
3. He will usher in the Millennium.
4. He will complete the First Resurrection.
5. He will take His rightful place as King of heaven and earth.
One of my favorite parts of the lesson was when we took note that, "When Jesus Christ first came to the earth, He did not come in glory. He was born in a lowly stable and laid in a manger of hay. He did not come with great armies as the Jews had expected of their Savior. Instead, He came saying, “Love your enemies, … do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you” (Matthew 5:44). He was rejected and crucified. But He will not be rejected at His Second Coming, “for every ear shall hear it, and every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess” that Jesus is the Christ (D&C 88:104). He will be greeted as “Lord of lords, and King of kings” (Revelation 17:14). He will be called “Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6)." Won't that be an amazing and awe inspiring sight! On Sugardoodle I found a link to a description which relates just what that day might be like when it happens. Click here to read the description.
