Why should Christ come from the East?

I'm kinda racking my brain: OK from the east might be a little relevant but why? why not Israel again? I thought it should follow the same exact conditions. BUT then again God shouldn't have to fit my thought! well Isaiah wrote: "He pursues them and moves on unscathed,by a path his feet have not traveled before"(Isaiah 41:3). Then he has to appear to a path his feet have never touched before. 2,000 years ago, Christ appeared to Israel and only stayed there. Then in his second coming he must appear in the east. That explains my thoughts but Where in the east????

Christ AhnSanhngHong will appear in the East?

OK so second comming christ will appear in the flesh, in 1948 but where? The prophet Isaiah said:

"10 I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say: My purpose will stand,and I will do all that I please. 11 From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said, that will I bring about; what I have planned, that will I do...13 I am bringing my righteousness near,it is not far away;and my salvation will not be delayed.I will grant salvation to Zion,my splendor to Israel." (Isaiah 46:10-13).

God allows us to see the end from the begining. From the EAST a bird of prey will grant salvation to Zion. But a Bird of prey? I thought it might be like more "magestic" of flying creatures, well I looked it up this time through the bible and this is what i found:

Exodus 19:3-4: "4 'You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself." Then God refers tohimself as an eagle. Then that must mean God is comming from the East to bring salvation!!!

Christ Ahn sahng hong will appear in 1948?

OK back with some dirt... I never knew this but Isreal did loose its country... check out the prophecy:

Luke 21- Its all about the signs of the end. Jesus gave his followers (christians) a warning 2,000 years ago. Luke 21:20:"When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. He let them know when you see these things occur, flee. But I looked it up in History:

In AD 68 Jerusalem was surrounded by Vespasianus a Roman General. But immediately he withdrew from Jerusalem to put down a riot following King Nero's suicide. And then at this time the Jews were divided into two kinds of people, some stayed and some fled to neighboring city of Pella. Some of the Jews thought they defeted the Roman Armies so they stayed in Jerusalem. ONLY those that believed in Jesus fled at this time because they believed the phrophecy he spoke was comming true. Later on Vespasianus was enthroned , he sent his son Titus to Jerusalem in AD 70 and in that time Jerusalem fell. Many people were destroyed (over 1 million)and some people were captured in this time but followers of Christ were saved because they obeyed what Jesus commanded them. In this time Isreal lost its country and the remaining Jews were scattered allover the world. Then all this occured to fulfill the prophecy in Matthew 24:33- this is when the prophetical fig tree died (isreal losing its country). Stil what does this have to do with 2nd Comming Christ???

check this out: Jeremiah 30: 1
1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD : 2 "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'Write in a book all the words I have spoken to you. 3 The days are coming,' declares the LORD, 'when I will bring my people Israel and Judah back from captivity and restore them to the land I gave their forefathers to possess,' says the LORD."

Then God said he would restore their land. After 1900 years of not having a country, Isreal was granted its land back. In 1948 it was declared that Isreal was a country once again. But in Matthew 24:34- When this happens we will see 2nd comming Christ! Then in 1948 he must appear? wow !!! I believe the prophecies are true then he will appear in 1948!!!!!!

what do figs have to do with Christ AhnSahngHong

I still dont get what do Figs have to do with 2nd comming christs appearnce! So I'm looking furter into this issue of Figs...

Refering back to Mathew 24:32-33:
32"Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door.

Well when the twigs of a fig tree get tender it means the tree is commming back to life (it begins to bloom again). Then we will see second comming christ? OK duh, this has to be spirtiual because figs grow all the time. well like i said before figs=Jews(Isreal). and Jesus spoke in parables. Then this must mean Isreal will come back to life or grow? Did something happen to Isreal? Let me research this!!!! Because according to the bible: if something did happen then when Isreal comes back to life, second comming christ will appear!

He will appear?

Fine, 2nd comming christ will appear in the flesh. but when??????

Matthew 24: 32and 33:
32"Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. (But in the foot note it says it means he).

Learn the lesson from the fig tree? Ok well I KNOW Jesus spoke in Parables but what do figs have to do with his second comming? Lets see: what do Figs Represent?:

Jeremiah 24:5: "like these good figs, i regard as good the exiles from Judah"... OK then God compares Figs to people from Judah. The only kind of people that live in Judah are Jewish. God refers to the Jews as Figs. Then Figs=Jews (people from Isreal)....

Still what could this have to do with Christs 2nd appearance????

When Part 2:

32"Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. ~ Matthew 24: 32-33.

Ok when will Christ appear again...
I really want to know but it says learn this lesson from the fig tree...

weird because if i look at it stright on (well physically) I can never understand this one... OK so more investigation is needed in this one... I'll have to look into this one... actually if you read the foot note in the bible -it means he is at the door. Thats crazy because from the fig tree lesson we can understand about when 2nd comming Christ will appear.....
WOW i have to know!!!!

When:

OK so i still have to know when will 2nd comming christ appear... AHH this question is racking my brain... but also i guess i want to know where he will come from... but i think i have too many questions.....

On a cloud? I think NOT!!

Ok.... Finnally proof Christ will come. so heres how:
Luke22:27-28- Son of Man = Christ. he will come again on the clouds. it says the same thing in Matthew 24:30. In Jude 1:12: These men are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm shepherds who feed only themselves. they are clouds without rain..." Here men are compared to as clouds again.

but as we know jesus christ always spoke in parables (Matthew 13:34). Also the prophet Daniel spoke about the propecy of Jesus comming in the Old Testement (Daniel 7:13) Daniel saw one like the son of man. This propesy was fulfilled by Jesus Christ.

Then Luke 22:27 and Matthew 24:30 must be talking about second Comming Christ!!! But is he really going to cme on a cloud? i think NOT!

Duh, Jesus came 2,000 years ago. How? IN THE FLESH! Then how must he appear again? IN THE FLESH OF COURSE! But now remains another question....

WHEN WILL HE COME?!?!

37 Years Left Out Standing?!?

Back again and more amped then ever... OK so Jehovah in the bible prophesied that he would come again (Isa 9). But he said he would come as a child (meaning he has to come as a human being). The way we would recognize him was that he would sit on David's throne.... then in Mathew (first book) it talks about Jesus' birth. Through that phropesy we could recognize that he was the Messiah. BUT...... King David in the bible only reigned for forty years and interesting enough he was anointed in his kingship at the age of thirty (2 Samuel 5:4). So then in order for Jesus to be the messiah he has to fulfill the phrophesy of king David (well be "prophetical" king David)!

totoootoo(my trumpet sound :) ) Jesus Christ was Baptized at the age of Thirty (Luke 3:21). Baptism is anointing! OK so he fulfilled that part of the phropesy (big deal!), BUT... Jesus only preached the gospel for three years and then ascended to heaven! OKKKK CONTRIDICTION!! In order for him to be the true Messiah he should have preached for forty years... That Leaves thirty seven years unfulfilled!! But in Matthew 24, Jesus prophesied he would come again! so then shouldn't he fulfill the thirty Seven years?

Judgement and Salvation together?

So as you can see im very intreigued by this topic of clouds.... According to Matthew 24, Christ will come on the clouds. But as im sitting at my desk doing some work, i cant help but think... God must come to bring salvation but he will also come to bring Judgement. There are so many diffrent religions in the world today... alot in which they dont believe in creator God. If God came on a cloud (literally), who wouldn't believe. Even Muslim or Buddaist, they would believe!Ha some one that came out of a cloud.... we'd all believe...God must come to bring salvation meaning not everyone is going to accept. Wether we believe or not thats the way to the kingdom of heaven. it doent make sense that his second coming he will bring salvation and Judgement... First he must bring salvation (then we can be saved) and later bring Judgement... Lodgically it makes sense, doesn't it?

Christ Ahnsahnghong? Why that name?

It’s been a crazy week between work and school. I got a chance to meet up with my friend and ask him my question about Clouds vs. Flesh. So he showed me Hebrew 12:1, it shows how the bible refers to people as clouds. And told me to come and study… ahh so todays my day off and I went to the Chruch of God today!!! Wow… Clouds really does mean flesh! According to Prophesy God must come again to establish the truth. But 2,000 years ago God came (Jesus) to show the people how to worship. Then now Christ Ahn Sahng Hong came to establish all the truths that have been Tampered with. OK so I have to ask now…. Why Ahnsahnghong? Why that name? I'm going back tomarrow (I'm keeping my 2nd Sabbath... so excited)... so to be continued for now!!!

I'm still pondering on my questions... My Youth Pastor called me today asking where i've been! so i told him i'd be studying the bible and stuff... he wasnt too thrilled about that. Well i told him i couldnt go back and he got upset. all i said was " you keep sunday worship and thats not in the bible". well lets just say some not so holy words came out... then i asked him out of curosity what he had to say about second coming christ. He told me there was no such thing! What?!? I thought to myself how can he say that! so i told him open your bible and look at Hebrews 9:28....

Welll I'll spare you the details of that conversation. Only Church of God shows me the bible...I know its hard to believe Christ came again... but according to phropesy it has to happen... but when? Well in the old testement it said Christ was going to be born in Bethlehem. what about Second Coming Christ?

Clouds..?

Haha... i always thought of Clouds as white puffy things and the care bears and all that funky stuff. BUT God coming on a Cloud? Clouds have to mean something? I'm going back tonight i have to look more into this....

2nd Comming Messiah?

OK so we know God's comming again but i was reading Mathew 24 today....
It's talking about the signs of the end of age, in verse 3 the disiciples asked: "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of YOUR comming and the end of age?" I guess i have this fixed concept that when Christ comes again thats it! but actually its two seperate commings. First he has to come and bring salvation. And then at the last comming it will be judgement (actually I have alot of questions about that, maybe someone can answer that?).

But then in verse 30: "they will see the son of Man comming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. and he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heavens to the other." OK First of all WHO can understand this? SECOND Son of Man (Jesus) will come on a cloud? lol i've seen pictures of this but i thought that was fairy tale! besides who is God's elect? OK confusing.

Should Jesus really come on a cloud the second time? I mean Hebrews 9:28: "so christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time not to bear sin but to bring salvation." Appear meaning it has to follow the same conditions and guide lines as the first time! Well Jesus came as a man 2,000 years ago. Cloud and flesh, I don't know?

2nd Coming Christ Ahn Sahng Hong

I was driving and I got this phone call. Well a number I thought was my boyfriend calling. The radio was playing and I sang along “God sent me an angel from the heavens above...” (My favorite song) Just then I picked up the phone and heard a friendly voice. A friend of my boyfriends, who had been inviting us to come to his church for a long time now. Again I thought, but then again who is passionate about the bible now a days? Even though we go to the same Presbyterian Church since I was a kid. But somehow I just don’t feel right, most of the time. My pastor talks about things that are supposed to make us feel good. But what is the point in believing in God?

I thought it was to repent and receive salvation. “For you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls” (1 peter 1:9) I’m such a sinner, and all I have to do is pray and say I’m sorry? According to Pastor that’s it but there has to be more!!! Well I feel so confused! Today I went to talk to him and all he kept showing me was this verse: “for, everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13). How can I know God 100%? God is my father why do I feel so far from him?

Well at my attempt to go “soul searching”, God found me! Once I stepped foot in Church of God World Misson Socitey… I felt at home. I got shocked who studies the bible like this? There is NO way anyone can know the bible or study it so in depth. I had to ask, how do you know everything through the bible? “Because Christ Ahnsahnghong taught us!” my friend answered back.

What!!!!!!! And then I saw for myself: “So Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time not to bear sin but to bring salvation” (Hebrews 9:28). Christ MUST appear to bring salvation. Then whoever brings salvation must be 2^nd coming Christ!
