The Coming of the King - Part 1 | Doug Batchelor

What will the return of Jesus actually be like? Is the rapture a silent, secret event where people suddenly vanish, or does the Bible paint a far more climatic picture? In Part 1 of "The Coming of the King," Pastor Doug Batchelor kicks off the Pinnacle of Prophecy series by diving into one of the most critical subjects in scripture: the literal, visible return of Jesus Christ. Grounded in the prophecies of Revelation 14, this presentation explores how the enemy uses deception to confuse the world about how Christ returns, and how you can avoid being misled by dangerous modern theories.
