Prophet Isaiah in chapter 7 verse 14 said, “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”
Mary mother of Jesus had sought a child in God’s image and God heard her prayers. God gave the child his very own nature. Since Jesus was born with a nature of God, His was a pure (virgin) birth. Therefore, Joseph was not Jesus’ father; but God was His father. Therefore, we know him as Son of God.
Jesus said He would come again. At Luke 21:27 it is written, “And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.” How do you perceive Jesus’ second coming; the way he came before, or would He come in a cloud as his disciple Luke had stated?

I vision Him coming down from the clouds like the scripture says. I think just for me that is a beautiful image. Remember Jesus said we don't know the time or hour He will come. I just like to think of Him coming from the clouds with all of these angels behind Him. I don't know how He is coming only that He will be here and we have to be ready as best we can.

I think He will come back not in human form again. I think he'll come in spirit.

It is true He abides as 'Holy Spirit', but if He comes again as Spirit none might not see Him. Coming in cloud also might mean coming in clouds of gloom. Didn't he say He would come again when there is famine, war and troubled times?

I think Jesus would come in a cloud like what His disciple Luke had stated. He couldn't be a Baby all over again, could He? But of course He is God and therefore can make all things possible. Yet, as I see it, it is is not in the how that we must concern ourselves but in our preparedness when He comes. The natural disasters and the diseases and the political and financial confusion are alerts for humankind to reassess their values and their priorities. Jesus is coming, definitely! Are we ready?
