In Christianity, the second coming of Christ, the second advent, sometimes called the parousia, is the anticipated return of Jesus Christ from Heaven, where he sits at the right hand of God, to earth. This belief is based on prophecies found in the canonical gospels and in most Christian and Islamic eschatologies. Christians generally believe the anticipated event is predicted in biblical messianic prophecies. Views about the nature of Jesus' Second Coming vary among Christian denominations and sometimes among individual Christians within these denominations.
Most English versions of the Nicene Creed in current use include the phrase: "He [Jesus] will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. ... We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen."
Several different terms are used to refer to the second coming of Christ.
In the New Testament the Greek word ἐπιφάνεια (epiphaneia, appearing) is used five times to refer to the return of Christ.[original research?]
