As believers in Jesus Christ, we are aware of the promises in the Bible referring to His Return. We are also aware of the warnings given to protect us against false prophets who would rob us of that priceless heritage. In this book, using the Bible as our guide, we will investigate the claim that Christ has returned. (0:3)

A more astounding claim than this can hardly be imagined. It must surely involve either the salvation of the whole world or an evil deception. The manner of Christ's First Coming was altogether surprising to the people of His time, and the claim that He could have already returned is equally surprising to the people of this age. (0:4)

The Bible clearly states that we are not to simply reject every claim that comes our way. Rather, it states that it contains the guidance necessary for the believer to distinguish who is true and who is false, and we are to use this guidance as the perfect test: (0:5)

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God. (1 John 4:1) (0:6) see

If a man love me, he will keep my words. (John 14:23) (0:7) see

If we believe in Christ, wouldn't we follow His Words and put the spirits to the test? Let us take Jesus's admonition with faith that God will guide us through His Word. (0:8)
