Default Beliefs in the second comming. Is it required?
Do all living denominations absolutly believe in the second comming of Jesus? Is this something a person must accept to call themselves a Christian? I know there are several theological variations of the second coming such as premilleniumism and postmilleniumism etc, but are there Christians that don't believe in the second coming at all, and if they don't believe that, what do they believe?

I think that most do believe in a second coming of some sort - I don't think that all of them do, but I can't think of one that doesn't.

The second coming of Christ will be different.

Here a prophecy of Jesus about this subject

A prophecy of Jesus from
TRUE LIFE IN GOD
True Life In God - Vassula Ryden
The Messages
okt. 20 1998

I SHALL MAKE THE PROPHECIES
OF ISAIAH COME TRUE
june 18 1992





Is there anyone to work with vigour and love willing
To rebuild this House that is so tottering ?

Is there anyone in there who is willing this House to defend?
Is there anyone now who what I am saying understands ?

Is there anyone in the Lord's House who is disposed a lot
To expand the great Kingdom of God?"

If there is anyone willing I then, will shine on him
With My splendour.......with Myself clothing him

I shall make Myself known and he will see Me standing before him
Yes he will see Me................. the Eternal and Immortal King

I would have enriched His soul With My immutable Divinity
And he will draw all men................. to Me

And I would have adorned him with every imaginable ornament
And in his royal stature he would heal this generation ....he is gent

The deaf will hear and the blind will see clear
And all together in one voice will cry out here

We belong to the Holy Trinity: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit

I believe Jesus will come back someday, but not in the way that is written in revelation and I'm not preparing to be raptured either.

Yes, the Qu'ran is peppered with references to "those who believe in God and the Last Day."

I've run across individual Christians whose belief in a Return doesn't seem to involve Jesus coming back either literally or in some other form as an individual, though.

I'm not sure what the basis is that for that belief. It would be interesting to see someone respond here who held such a belief.

Since the return of Jesus to judge the living and the dead is part of all the pre-schismatic creeds, I'd suggest that it is a bottom-line belief. After all, one becomes a Christian by confessing Jesus is Lord and by believing that God raised him from the dead. In raising Jesus from the dead, God has declared Jesus to be the Son of God with power (Romans 1:3 - 4) so that "at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father." The event that will see every knee bow is the return of Jesus to judge the living and the dead. So yeah, I'd say that if a person confesses to be a Christian yet does not believe in the literal return of Jesus to this here earth is either uninformed or apostate.

Is a belief in the Second Coming Required? Yes it is.

The Nicene Creed:
Quote:

We believe in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, light from light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary
and became truly human.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father [and the Son],
who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

LDS Christians absolutely believe in the Second Coming of Christ. No disclaimers, no qualifiers. Just plain, "yes."

Christ will come again, it is a cornerstone of the Faith.

Maranatha!

Concerning the "status" of those who disbelieve, i will not stand in the place of God and Judge them, but it has been a teachign of the holy Scriptures and the catholic Church for 2000 years.
