Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Look, he's coming back with the clouds, and everyone's going to see him. Even the people who hurt him will see him coming. Every family, every nation on earth is going to cry out when they realize what's happening. That's just how it is. Amen.
When Jesus returns, it won't be a secret, the whole world will know, and it's going to hit different for everyone.
