He is not finished yet. The best day in history has not happened yet. He is still coming.
parousia Β· G3952 Β· GREEK
The Greek word parousia (ΟΞ±ΟΞΏΟ ΟΞ―Ξ±) was used in the ancient world for the official arrival of a king or emperor β the day the most powerful person in the world came to your city and everything stopped. Paul, Peter, and Jesus himself used this word for the return of Christ: a coming in power and great glory, bringing final justice and resurrection, and establishing a kingdom without end. It is the event the whole Bible is moving toward.
Which verse about the parousia feels most alive to where you are in your faith right now?
