Jesus' Four Failed Prophecies About Him Returning In The Lifetimes Of His Apostles

He does still exist in the other worlds of God, of course, as you know.
If course He does but that does not help us in this world.

Luke 1:32-33
New International Version


32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”


Jesus will rule in Heaven, but never again on Earth.

“The Throne upon which He sat is the Eternal Throne from which Christ reigns for ever, a heavenly throne, not an earthly one, for the things of earth pass away but heavenly things pass not away. He re-interpreted and completed the Law of Moses and fulfilled the Law of the Prophets. His word conquered the East and the West. His Kingdom is everlasting.”
Abdu'l-Baha, Paris Talks
 
Those verses are from the Bible so they only apply to the Christian dispensation...
They only applied until the end of the age. The former age ended when a new age began in 1844 A.D.

Time does not stand still so God speaks again in every new age. You an continue listening to the old Voice of God or listen to what God had to say for people living in the present age and find out what God wants of you in this age.

The eternal covenant is the Mosaic Covenant.

The overall covenant God made with His followers in Judaism, known to Jews as the Mosaic Covenant, and to Christians as the Old Covenant, put forth the stipulation of the oneness of God – “Thou shalt have no other gods before me” (Exodus 20:2) – as the primary law of the Ten Commandments. In exchange for following those principles, God promised that he would never leave His followers without guidance:

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid … for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. – Deuteronomy 31:6.

This eternal covenant between God and humanity, the Baha’i teachings say, remains in force today. The Creator has bestowed bounties on us all, and in return asks us to recognize His prophets and messengers and abide by their laws and spiritual principles. The Baha’i teachings joyously celebrate that covenant:
How to Understand the Baha’i Covenant

The new Covenant that Baha'u'llah made with His followers is called the Covenant of Baha'u'llah.

Where is that in the teaching of the apostles acts 2:42

What was his mission? he was a heretical Jew who let himself die, if he existed.
His mission was to bear witness unto the truth about God and set forth teachings for us to live by and finally die on the cross for the sins and inequities of humanity.

John 18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

Before Jesus died He said it was finished, and it was finished as soon as he died.

John 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

Whoops, you forgot the age in between, the age that began at about 610 A.D.
I did not forget it but I did not want to muddy the waters. Besides, the Dispensation of Muhammad was not really a new age because it was part of the old age that began with Adam and ended with Muhammad and sealed off the Age of Prophecy, bringing it to an end.

Where is this new age in prophecy

what happened to the hippies age of Aquarius?
The Age of Prophecy began with Adam and it ended with Muhammad. It was not a new age, it was the age previous to the age we are now living in, which is called the Age of Fulfillment, because all the Bible prophecies will be fulfilled during this age.

The hippies age of Aquarius is not related to religion so it dose not figure into any of this.

You're right about the prophets. Yes, God told the prophets of the Old Testament and God also told Jesus.
The prophecies for the return of Christ have all been fulfilled and the Bible prophecies and exactly how they were fulfilled by Baha'u'llah are listed in the book entitled Thief in the Night by William Sears.
there is no new revelation Jude 1:3
Islam and the buba or bab is false
False religion false doctrine
You are free to believe whatever you want to, but that verse does not support your belief that there could be no new revelations after Christ.

To believe that the 1.9 Muslims all believe in a revelation that is false defies any kind of logic or reason, but such is the nature of Christianity.

What was not fulfilled at the first coming of Jesus Christ will not be fulfilled at a second coming because Jesus Christ is not going to return to this world.

John 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

John 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

John 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
