The Second Coming
The Second Coming is merely the return of SENSE. Can this POSSIBLY be fearful?
The "second coming" is a well known expected event in the "christian" religion. It is associated with the belief in a judgment at an end of time event for the world. So the question that is asked is, is there really gonna be a second coming and what should that mean to us if anything? Below is an answer given to us from Jesus, in "A Course in Miracles".
In the course Jesus states,
"The first coming of Christ is just another name for the Creation. The SECOND coming of Christ means nothing more than the healing of the part of the mind of man the ego rules.
Christ is the Son of God, [the total of all souls projected as God's only and original creation, his son.
The SECOND coming of Christ means nothing more than the end of the belief in the ego, and the healing of the part of the mind of man, the ego rules over.
The ego literally lives on borrowed time, and ITS days ARE numbered.
Do not fear the last judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego’s time is borrowed from YOUR eternity.
This IS the Second Coming, which was made FOR you, as the First was created.
The Second Coming is merely the return of SENSE. Can this POSSIBLY be fearful?
What can be fearful but "fantasy", and no one turns to fantasy unless he despairs of satisfaction in reality. But it is CERTAIN that he will NEVER find satisfaction in fantasy, so that his ONLY hope is to change his mind about REALITY.
Only if the decision that reality is fearful is WRONG, can GOD be right. And I ASSURE you that God IS right.
Be glad, then, that you HAVE been wrong, but this was only because you did not know who you WERE.
Had you REMEMBERED, you could no more have been wrong than God can. The impossible can happen ONLY in fantasy.
When you search for reality in fantasies, you will not find it.
The symbols of fantasy are of the ego, and of THESE you will find many. But do not look for meaning in them. They have no more meaning than the fantasies into which they are woven.
Fairy tales can be pleasant or fearful, pretty or ugly, but NO ONE calls them TRUE. Children may believe them, and so, for a while, they ARE true for them. But when Reality dawns, they are gone. REALITY has NOT gone in the meanwhile.
The Second Coming is the awareness of Reality, not its RETURN. Behold, my children, Reality is here. It belongs to you and me and God, and is perfectly satisfying to all of us. Only THIS awareness heals, because it is the awareness of truth."
"I was created like you in the First, and I am reminding you that I have called you to join with me in the Second."
