Christian- What does Bible say about Jesus coming again?
Will God literally wake up the dead people with their bodies and judge good ones from the bad ones? I haven't been really reading Bible, because I'm 14 and I would judge it all wrong. Yeah, my question is weird and it's deep for a teen. But I have been going through a lot of deaths of people close to me and that I really cared for, and I'm worried what will happen to our bodies when Jesus comes again? Cause, people see everything visually and body is a symbol of a person.

Don't worry about it. He will figure out how and probably in ways that you and I couldn't begin to guess at how it works.
"For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another" Job 19:25-27
"And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works." Revelation 20:13
"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years." Revelation 20:4-6
"we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself." Philippians 3:20-21
If you are his, don't worry about it, He will make it work.

I have always been taught that the second coming will happen so quickly that no one will realize that it has happend until it is over. it is said that those who die believing in Christ will be the first taken and then those who are alive and believe in him, nonbelievers will be left behind. That is the answer for that but what I think you are really asking is what happens to the people who have passed on. The bible says that those who believe in him shall not know death but have life everlasting.
Read John 11

I started reading the bible, the Gospels when I was 13..................you are never too young to understand the Love of Christ once you have an interest.
yes those that have died will arise from the grave when Christ returns, but will have a body made fit for heaven or hell, a body that is Eternal, like that of Jesus after He arose and took on a Eternal body.

The judgment is not of the living, but of the dead, as in dead. These are judged from the records on the books of their actions while alive. If this judgment is adverse - even their memory and records are destroyed for all eternity.
This judgment begins right after the end of Armageddon The ones who then receive favorable judgment get resurrected into Paradise on earth under kingdom rule.

Numerous passages in the Bible portray Jesus clearly stating that the Second Coming would occur WITHIN THE LIFETIME of his disciples.
"Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled."
— Matthew 24:34
"This generation" refers to a span of 30-40 years, thus placing the date of the second coming before the deaths of the disciples. C.S. Lewis called this "the most embarrassing verse in the Bible" in The World’s Last Night and Other Essays.
Three more verses explicitly state that some of the people listening to Jesus as he preached WOULD NOT DIE BEFORE HE RETURNED.
"Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom."
— Matthew 16:28
"And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power."
— Mark 9:1
"But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God."
— Luke 9:27
Jesus also told people that "the time is short and they should not get married, not mourn, not be happy, not buy things, and not live "in the world". This again indicates that Jesus himself believed his return to be extremely imminent.
"What I mean, brothers, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they had none; those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away.""
— 1 Corinthians 7:29-31
"But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer."
— 1 Peter 4:7
The term "Second Coming" NEVER APPEARS in the New Testament. Furthermore, in none of the Epistles which were written prior to the Gospels is Jesus ever referred to as "coming again" or "coming back" or "returning." The only terms used are "coming" or "will come." If the Jesus of the Gospels is legendary fiction, then this is exactly what would be expected if early Christians were looking forward to the First Coming of Jesus, much as practitioners of Judaism are still looking forward to the First Coming of the Messiah, not the Second Coming.

lower than a distinct call. yet, first, He comes interior. He would not come till human beings say, blessed be he who's on the marketplace contained in the call of the Lord, and purely then, with myriads of those who have already "disregarded." Ask the watchman in the journey that they see Him coming. they might recognize. there'll be an alarm set earlier He comes on the 'nighttime hour.' "He techniques!" -contained in the ten Virgins Parable. they're going to be dreaming desires and seeing visions. human beings will say, "Lo right here." or Lo there." No, do not go there, human beings will see because the "lightning flashes from the east to the west." each and everybody will see. (Lightning is electrical energy, so might want to or not it truly is with electrical energy via wires?)

The Bible says that the Jesus will return and he will walk among us,what is meant that we will no longer have our physical form(body) but we will be pure souls...like when you die you have no body and we will walk beside him for an eternity...

Problem is he may have changed his mind after getting up there and seeing the whole picture.
