There are three terms used in Scripture for the second coming of Christ. The first of these is “apocalypsis”, which means “revelation”. It has the idea of the removal of the veil, showing something which is otherwise hidden. It is the term used by Paul, when he says to the Corinthians, “So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ”—1 Corinthians 1, verses 7–8).
