When do you guys think Jesus will return?
I think hes next to dragons in actually believing, so I want to ask the religious people when do you guys think he is going to return? I say never because made up fairy tales cannot come true, but if he hasnt come back now, while the world is the way it is, dont you think youre waiting on nothing?
Also, if he died for our sins, why are their still sins? Why were their sins before he died, and still after? Doesn't that prove his death was meaningless? ( If he was real )
And if he doesn't, will you stop believing?

Hey, I'm here. What's up?
EDIT: Actually, darling as my above comment is, I think I want to seriously answer this one.
I'm not Christian... I'm not religious. But I do have an interest in several religions, and think they all have some virtue, and I suppose I believe in certain aspects.
The idea behind Jesus' death is the Holy Trinity... God/Father, Son/Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. There isn't any word/form of words in English to combine them, but in Hebrew and other languages, they're often combined... so they plurally are one singular.
Jesus death was to tie them in and endow everyone with the grace needed to overcome sin... not to eliminate sin completely. Basically, Man singularly (represented by Christ) is detached from the Holy Spirit and thus detached from God (and vice versa), because they lack the "perfection" that they endow God and the Holy Spirit with... so man, without them, is inferior, and thus not connected within the Holy Trinity.
So Jesus died to make that connection... to welcome and accept the Holy Spirit (which many felt unworthy to do) and the grace that entails then, once acheiving it, he died, just like Man. God and the Holy Spirit never die, but man does. So Jesus, as the embodiment of the Holy Spirit (by the grace of the Father), died just as man does... thus establishing man's right/connection to the Holy Spirit and the Father.
So... the point wasn't to end sin. It was to give people the eternal connection (that continues past their own mortal life) enabling them to overcome sin and mortal restrictions and become part of the Holy Trinity (which man can choose to do or not).

I don't think he is going to come until another estimated 500 years. Although, it's hard to put a date on it because Jesus said no one know when he is going to come back.
He died for our sins to save us from the condemnation of sin which is hell. We still are subjected to the sinful nature, but are saved by faith through the cross.

We are in the last days...from what I know and have read, and deducted I would say between 2011 to 2014. But only God knows when Jesus is coming. Mt 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy COMING, and of the end of the world?

"But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." Matthew 24:36 See 2 Peter 3:9. "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." "Any" and "All" refers to those who are selected to become saved. Longsuffering means patient. JHVH has a proper time for every thing. See Ecclesiastes 3:1. "To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven."

Very, very soon.
Mankind still sins -- that never goes away until Christ comes again and we are judged. But because Christ died on the cross and was resurrected, our sins will be wiped away in front of God, and we will have everlasting life with Him in His kingdom.

No1 but the father knows when Jesus is coming to get his people and put theives, liars, adultrous etc to the lake of fire.. If you dont believe in him, you will regret cuz blessed are those who believe in him and his word. If you really dont think he is real.. why dont you ask him yourself to him himself to you, to reveal him to you.. i promise to you that if u ask in faith to enter you heart and to reveal himself to you, it will happen.
stop doubting and start trusting the one who gave you life and can take it away as well..
i will pray for your lack of trust and faith..

I'm going to say within my lifetime - I'm about 30.
If I'm wrong then I guess I'll just find out the 'truth' when I die.
