The Second Coming (sometimes called the Second Advent or the Parousia) is the Christian and Muslim belief that Jesus Christ will return to Earth after his ascension to Heaven (which is said to have occurred about two thousand years ago). The idea is based on messianic prophecies and is part of most Christian eschatologies. Other faiths have various interpretations of it.
