Christ Not Coming Back Again (Part 1) - By Danilo T. Nacua

Why are all the so-called Christians in the world hope and expect for Christ to come back to Earth for the third time?

Ooopps… I said ‘third’ because it is a deeply rooted misinterpretation of biblical statements of Jesus Christ handed down through the centuries prevailing until the present times and blinded as they are, it’s the only hope of salvation presented by their religious leaders.

With these misinterpretations, they cling on to false hopes and expectations and become blind to the truth that Christ had promised to send someone to judge the world according to its own sins. We are here to correct that misconception.

If in due course we will come across passages and prophecies which concern us, the present readers of the Bible, then we, by all means must partake of such promises. Then and only then have we the right to lay claims to such promises, if there be any.

At the outset I would like to reiterate that I am not against Biblical passages regarding the coming of Christ per se. If some passages tend to indicate future advent, some care must be taken into consideration and the time element must also be scrutinized, and most important is whether we, the present readers of the Bible, have the right to qualify ourselves as partakers of Christ’s statements which were exclusively promised to his disciples.

Today’s self-proclaimed Christians who are hoping for Christ’s supposedly Second Coming are subjected to dismay every time their religious leaders try to guess the time of his arrival. They have not understood well what the Bible wants us to understand that Christ’s second coming have passed and we have nothing to do with it because the promise was specific only to his disciples and church members at that time.

Remember that when Christ used prophesy to prove himself, there was no bible yet as we know it today. There were only Scrolls of Scriptures without chapters and verses divisions to easily identify texts or quotations. So, when his disciples cited some texts from Scriptures, they merely refer to the author or writer prophet and mentioned the texts to their listeners and only the diligent audience would try to verify the truthfulness or the accuracy of the scriptural information related to them (Acts 17:11 TEV). Not like today that it’s very easy to verify biblical texts by merely citing the author, chapter and verse.

Let’s take the case of Jesus Christ on the claim of his being the “cornerstone”. He asked his listeners in Matthew 21:42 (TEV) that “haven’t you ever read what the Scriptures say?” Then he went on to quote Scriptures: ‘the stone which the builders rejected as worthless turned out to be the most important of all…’. He was actually declaring to his audience that he was claiming to be the one prophesied as the “cornerstone” that the builders would reject later on. Jesus never mentioned where in the Scriptures those words could be found nor did he mention whoever said those words because there were no text divisions at that time. Today, we have no problem finding that prophesy cited by Jesus Christ. If Jesus were preaching today instead of in his own time, he would have merely said, “haven’t you read Psalms 118:22-23”? That’s where he quoted the prophesy.

But wait a minute! How come Jesus claimed to be the fulfillment of the “cornerstone” prophesy when in fact his name was not written within the texts of the prophesy! Was it spiritually legal for him to make such claim? Well, if you were a believer you would have no problem accepting his claim, but if you are not, then no amount of argumentation and debate would convince you to believe.

So then, it’s easy to resolve that biblical prophesies concerning personalities are not accompanied with actual names of the would be fulfillment. If so, how then are we to know that anyone who claims as the fulfillment of certain prophecy is the real one and not an impostor? That’s easy. A certain prophecy for a certain person is accompanied not by a name but by certain feats only the real claimant can do to support the claim.

In the case of the “cornerstone” prophesy, some of the accompanying feats to be done by the claimant are found in Isaiah 35:4-6 (TEV) saying, “Tell everyone who is discouraged, ‘Be strong and don’t be afraid! God is coming to your rescue, coming to punish your enemies. The blind will be able to see, and the deaf will hear. The lame will leap and dance, and those who cannot speak will shout for joy!’”

If you’ll examine these texts in any translation you can never find the name of Jesus Christ written along with the prophesy as the one who will do these miracles. But in Matthew 11:2-6 (TEV), when Jesus was asked by the disciples of John the Baptist if he were the one prophesied as “coming”, he told the emissaries of John Baptist to “go back and tell John what you are hearing and seeing; the blind can see, the lame can walk, those who suffer from dreaded skin diseases are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead are brought back to life and the good news is preached to the poor. How happy are those who have no doubts about me.” Again he claimed as the fulfillment of the prophesy mentioned in Isaiah 35:4-6 (TEV) even though his name was not written along with the prophesy.

Did Jesus really do these feats of miracles mentioned as proof of his claim as the “cornerstone”? Yes! In Matthew 9:27-34 (TEV) Jesus made the blind see and the dumb man talk. Luke 5:12-26 told of the cleansing of a leper and the cure of a paralytic. The raising of the dead can be read in John 11:38-44 (TEV).

The ministry of Jesus Christ were filled with miracles just to prove himself to the people that he was the one sent by the Lord Jehovah by virtue of the miracles that he performed as mentioned in the prophecies. From Genesis to Zechariah, the books that came to be known as The Old Testament but were known as Scriptures, prophecies can be found concerning Jesus Christ but his name was never written along with any of the prophecies.

Now it’s clear that when God makes a prophecy he does not include the name of the person or entity concerned but only the feats or the works. There are lots of other examples like ones mentioned above but those will suffice for now.

That was the reason why Jesus Christ was having a hard time explaining and persuading his countrymen about himself and was he was even rejected when he claimed to be the messiah because he was just the son of a lowly carpenter. In Matthew 13:56-58 (New living Translation) he was scorned for his lowly status to which Jesus merely answered, “a prophet is honored everywhere except in his hometown and by his own family.” Most of all his name was not written in Scriptures to support his claim as the messiah.

So is with the advent of the Holy Spirit incarnate Master Tomas D. Eugenio, Sr.

The fundamental doctrine of the PBCM is based primarily on the promise Jesus Christ and the Old Testament prophets. Let’s take a few of the many prophesies in the bible concerning the arrival of the Holy Spirit. John 14:15-17 reads that “If you love me, you will obey my commandments. I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, who will stay with you forever. He is the Spirit, who reveals the truth about God…” and this Helper “…the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and make you remember all that I have told you.”

The Holy Spirit has a personal name as mentioned in Matthew 28:19. Of all the names involved only the personal name of the Holy Spirit is not yet known. In order for the people not to get confused with the three personal names, distinctive foundation titles were attributed to each. As a reminder, the name of the Father – Jehovah (Isaiah 42:8 KJV), holds the foundation title of a “stone or a rock” as cited in Deuteronomy 32:3-4 (KJV); and the name of the Son – Jesus Christ (Romans 1:3 KJV) holds the foundation title of a “cornerstone” in Ephesians 2:20 (KJV).

Now, for the foundation title of the Holy Spirit, the book of Revelation 2:17 reveals a “new name” written on a “white stone”. This “new name” cannot be attributed to either Jehovah or Jesus Christ by virtue of their own respective and distinctive foundation titles already possessed by them. Therefore, of all the personal names mentioned in Matthew 28:19 only the personal name of the Holy Spirit qualifies the prophesy in Revelation 2:17 as the “new name” and a “white stone” for a foundation title.

Please remember that no actual name is written in these prophecies but merely mentioned the “name” of the Holy Spirit. Anybody can claim that he is the Holy Spirit by mere mention of the prophecy alone. The problem of the would-be claimant is if can do the accompanying feats what the Holy Spirit is expected to do when he arrives. In John 16:15 (NIV) Christ said, “All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you.

The would-be claimant Holy Spirit must show that “all things” possessed by Jesus Christ that was given to him the Father are now in his possessions. These “things” are “all power in heaven and in earth” as declared by Christ in Matthew 28:18 (KJV).

Did Master Tomas D. Eugenio, Sr., the fulfillment of the Holy Spirit incarnate as we proclaimed him to be, possess these powers? Yes. We would not be so confident in preaching him to everyone if it were not true. Do we have proof? Yes. To verify it, all you have to do is interview the members and ask them what they had seen in Master Tomas D. Eugenio, Sr. that made them believe in him.

In The Living Bible, John 14:26, Christ said that “…when the Father sends the Comforter instead of me - and by Comforter I mean the Holy Spirit – he will teach you as much, as well as remind you of everything I myself have told you”. So, it is the Holy Spirit that will teach the world now and will remind the world what Christ said before. And what did Christ say that only the Holy Spirit can remind us? In John 16:10 Christ said, “I am going to the Father and you will not see me anymore.”

Did your religious leader remind you that Christ said he returned to the Father and will not come back to earth anymore? Of course no; because if he did then he will no longer have a hold on you and besides only the true fulfillment of the Holy Spirit incarnate can do it and that’s why we are here telling the world now that no Christ is coming back to earth.
