Kids’ Questions 10: When is God coming back?

Aleesa, 11
God is preparing a place for all His children (John 14:2,3). He will come for each of us — either when we die or on the day He comes for all His family, a day called the Rapture.
Death should not be a fearful thing for the believer. Second Corinthians 5:8 tells us that if we leave our bodies at death, we are immediately with God, and that is something we can look forward to.
The Rapture is the other possibility. This is when Jesus returns to take His church out of this world. (See 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17.)
But no one knows the day of his or her death and no one knows when the Rapture will take place. “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only” (Matthew 24:36).
