The second coming of Christ is a perfect exercise in Biblical interpretation. Nothing happens or is described without a direct reference to previous scripture. It is through a complete understanding of God's Word that we come to a proper understanding of who Jesus is, what He's promised, and how we live in light of those realities.

1. Jesus is identified by claims made about God and the Messiah in the Old and New Testaments.
2. The angel's announcement of the Battle of Armageddon is an intentional quotation of the Old Testament.
3. Our hope in God is formed and informed by His Word.
