Another dodge
JLB... Did Jesus allow Thomas to touch Him? Is that that hard of a question.. I see clearly why you are unwilling to sayso. The Verses i posted imply He ascended and returned but that just does not fit into the theology of many..
Absolutely it says second time..
28 so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him
He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.
Hebrews 9:28
So some how Heb 9 :28 and John 20 :17 have to 'jive' or blend together ...
Also Hebrews 9:28 does not say He will not return a 3 ,4 -the time,,,, that thought is being read into the verse.. Please note i have not stated He will return over and over... I simply said the verse does not rule out another ...
