Becky asked LDS folks what they are doing to prepare for the second coming of Christ.

For you non-LDS folk I present the same question:

What are you doing to prepare for the second coming of Christ and what are you teaching your families?

I don't do anything more or less that what I think Jesus taught concerning the matter - simply try to keep his command to love God and love others. Not much more else to do IMO.

Well, I pay my bills late and run up the credit cards hoping He'll come before the bills are due or anything gets shut off.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I would be interested to see what else some people think is necessary.

By the way, how's that working out for you?

N/A.

In the Baha'i view, the Second Coming of the Christ Spirit already took place over 150 years ago, and we (my family and I) celebrate it along with other Baha'is around the world every day! . . . :)

Best,

I don't live my life obsessing on the parousia. I'm concerned about living the abundant life today.

Nor do I.

However, I long for the day when God will end all suffering. It's about time that God clean up this mess.

With most people, it's no big deal. With some, I need God's help.:eek:

Jesus’ departure was observed only by his loyal followers.
The same would be true when Christ returned in Kingdom power. (John 14:19)
Only his faithful anointed disciples would discern his royal presence.
that insight would have a profound effect on them, culminating in the gathering of millions who would become Jesus’ earthly subjects.—Revelation 7:9, 14.
