The Second Coming of Christ

As I was reading through Zecharia, I came to an important verse showing the touchdown, the second coming of Jesus to earth. In the end times, the Day of the LORD comes and at the end of tribulation, Jesus returns. Let's look at the end of the first coming and the start of the second coming of Christ.

The first coming of Christ ended when he ascended into the clouds to heaven from the Mt. of Olives.

The Ascension

Act 1:9 ... as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight.
Act 1:10 And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes,
Act 1:11 and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven."
Jesus came the first time as a gentle Lamb to be the sin offering for his people. He will return as a warrior king at the end of the time of tribulation, fighting against his enemies.

Mat 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Mat 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

The prophet Zecharia prophesied of the second coming of the Lord.

Zec 14:3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
Zec 14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

The mount of Olives will split and be divided when the Lord's feet touch down and there shall be a great valley.

Mic 1:3 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
Mic 1:4 And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as the waters that are poured down a steep place.

The kingdom of God will come to a renewed earth and there will be peace for a thousand years with Jesus as King.
