The born-again Christian has One: "Art Thou He who will come, or should we wait for another?" Ah, we who believe do indeed know the answer. "Even so, Come quickly, Lord Jesus!" Amen!

Matthew 24:23-27 KJV (23) Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. (24) For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. (25) Behold, I have told you before. (26) Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. (27) For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 KJV (16) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (17) Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (18) Wherefore comfort one another with these words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Roman Caesars? very similar Humanists? DING DING DING DING! "We have no need of a savior, we can save ourselves." (from Humanist Manifesto 2) The idea that man could be like God has been around since the Fall. Humanism codifies it. Don't think 'who', think 'whom'.
