To: Salvation

There is only one sign: the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Matthew 12:39 reads: “...An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas”.

No sign will be given except the death, burial and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. One sign.

Even today an evil generation seeks after a “second sign.”

Isn’t that a tad myopic?? Jesus specifically answered His disciples questions about what would be the signs of His return.

Yup. I’m kinda surprised how people get so involved in looking for so many meanings in some scripture. It’s good to study and look for parallel references, but sometimes bible scholars remind me of the character that picks up a thrown sandal in Life of Brian.
