THE SECOND COMING OF GOD AND CHRIST
Jesse M. Hendley
Proverbs 8:22-30
In our study of eschatology, the doctrine of the final
events in God's plan for the ages, we have considered
a number of questions:
What are the signs of the times?
What is the order of coming events?
Where will the closing drama of the ages be played? Is
there more than one part to Jesus' return?
How do we interpret Bible prophecy?
Who is the Antichrist?
What nations will be involved in the final conflict?
What is the War of Armageddon, and where will it take
place?
Now, in relation to the second coming of Christ after
the Great Tribulation, I want to share with you five

In Proverbs 8 we have the record of Wisdom personified

universe.
"The Lord possessed Me in the beginning of His ways,
before His works of old. I have been established from
everlasting, from the beginning, before there was ever
an earth. When there were no depths, I was brought
forth---when there were no fountains abounding with
water. Before the mountains were settled, before the
hills, I was brought forth; while as yet He had not
made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part
of the dust of the world.
"When He prepared the heavens, I was there; when He
set a compass on the face of the deep; when He
established the clouds above; when He strengthened the
fountains of the deep; when He gave to the sea its
limit, that the waters should not pass His
commandment; when He appointed the foundations of the
earth, then I was beside Him, as one brought up with
Him; and I was daily His delight, rejoicing always
before Him" (vv.22-30).
That is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful pictures
in the Bible of Christ with His Father. It gives us
