The Next Time He comes....Things will be MUCH Different!

His First Coming	His Second Coming
The first time He came, he was the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the earth who opened not His mouth, who was led to the slaughter for your redemption and mine!	When He returns the second time, He will be the Lion of Judah who roars and makes the earth tremble with His power and His glory.  He will crush the kings of the east and the west, who will be led by the Antichrist.
The first time He came, He was dragged before Pilate and Herod.	The next time He comes, kings and queens, presidents and prime ministers, senators and governors from the nations of the world will line up in Jerusalem to bow before Jesus Christ the carpenter's son, the Son of King David, a blood descendant of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.  The Bible says that "every knee should bow ... and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" (Phil. 2:10-11)
The first time He came, He rode a donkey into Jerusalem.	The second time He comes He will be mounted on a white stallion.  His name will be called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He will judge and make war. His eyes will be as a flame of fire, and on His head will be many crowns.  He will be clothed with a robe dipped in the blood of His enemies and the enemies of Israel, and His name will be called the Word of God.  The armies that are in heaven, adorned in white linen, will follow Him on white horses. Out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, which is His spoken Word.  He will strike down the nations and will rule them with a rod of iron.  He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of God Almighty.  And He will have on His robe and on His thigh a name written: "KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS" (Rev. 19:15-16)
