Here’s the simple test. Could Jesus return today? Tomorrow? A week from Thursday? If so, looking at it from the perspective of right now, wouldn’t his return be counted as soon? If not, what is the biblical evidence suggestive of some event that needs to occur before we can start “the countdown to his return”?
We will be transformed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye ... and that quickly disappear because He will have re-created us into higher dimensional beings able to see Jesus as He really is.
You can’t redefine the word “Soon” to mean “anytime” or “sometime in the next 10,000 years.”
That’s not “Soon.”
