Second Coming

As someone who is in the countermissionary field, I often get e-mails from readers of my website or blog stating that Jesus fulfilled all of Messianic prophecy. But the beliefs of Messianic "Judaism"-Christianity prove that this is not true. The belief of the Second Coming specifically proves that this is not true.
After all, why does Jesus need a "second coming?" The answer is that he needs a second coming because he did not fulfill all of Messianic prophecy in his "first coming." Had he fulfilled all of Messianic prophecy when he lived 2000 years ago, a second coming would be unnecessary. After all, we would already be in the Messianic age! Yet, we can look around us and see that the world is clearly far from the perfection that the Bible promises us will happen at the time of the Messiah.
Jesus simply was not the Messiah. The belief in a "Second Coming" proves that Judaism was correct for rejected Jesus as the Messiah, just as Judaism has rejected every Messianic "contender" that has come to us. None have fulfilled all of Messianic prophecy in their lifetimes. All of them need a "second coming!"

Interesting blog. I am a former member of Beth Messiah Congregation in Cincinnati. I now doubt Jesus even existed as an historical figure. Have you investigated that?
