The Place of His Birth

The birth of Christ’s Second Coming will be in Jerusalem in order to fulfill the prophecy:

“And I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared and ready, like a bride dressed to meet her husband. I heard a loud voice speaking from the throne: “Now God’s home is with mankind! He will live with them, and they shall be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God. He will wipe away all tears from their eyes. There will be no more death, no more grief or crying or pain. The old things have disappeared.” Then the one who sits on the throne said, “And now I make all things new!” He also said to me, “write this, because these words are true and can be trusted.” And he said, “It is done! I am the first and the last, the beginning and the end. To anyone who is thirsty I will give the right to drink from the spring of the water of life without paying for it. Whoever wins the victory will receive this from me: I will be his God, and he will be my son. But cowards, traitors, perverts, murderers, the immoral, those who practice magic, those who worship idols, and all liars—the place for them is the lake burning with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.” (Revelation 21.2-8)

The New Jerusalem has two dimensions: the first is physical and a faint shadow of the spiritual Jerusalem, the second dimension that represents the bride of the returning Christ, which is his Heavenly Mission. This Mission (bride) will appear in Lebanon to fulfill the prophecies written in Revelation, Song of Songs, and Isaiah:

“The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come!” Everyone who hears this must also say, “Come!” Come, whoever is thirsty; accept water of life as gift, whoever wants it.” (Revelation 22.17)

 “A very little while, and Lebanon shall be changed into an orchard, and the orchard be regarded as a forest! On that day the deaf will hear when a book is read, and the eyes of the blind will see out of impenetrable darkness; the lowly will once again rejoice in the Lord…” (Isaiah 29.17-19).

“Come from Lebanon, my bride, come from Lebanon, come! (Song of Songs 4.8).
