No, but they only said Jesus would return in like manner.

These guys have blatantly said the angels told them THEY would see Jesus' return.

All these years they have been saying that, which is absolutely false.

"They would see" is not in the text. Jesus would return in the same manner they saw Him leave: He would descend from heaven. His ascension was personal, bodily, and occurred at a definite moment in time. His return then would be personal, bodily, and at a definite moment in time.

The angels' primary concern was to comfort the disciples that Jesus would, in fact, return. Not so much to give a detailed, play by play description of that return, but to affirm the certainty of His actual, personal return.

I saw the posts.

Dont mock the Bible.

Preterists live in the gutter of Bible mocking, and I expect much more dignity from you, Chris.

Some people will never see the distinction between their interpretations of the bible and the bible. How arrogant can people get?

Mike, just reverence the words of the Bible, and dont joke it into another meaning.

Everyone hates to be disciplined, but it pays dividends when one corrects the error of his ways.


Thanks.

Actually, it is.
"Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." (Act 1:11)

So, the "manner" is just a physical body going up and a physical body coming down? And somehow this was to happen though they would not "see" it? Please explain.
