When Jesus comes back, it is called the "Second Coming," also known as the "Second Advent" or the "Parousia." This event refers to Jesus Christ's return to Earth after His ascension to Heaven. The Second Coming is understood as a future event when Jesus will judge, establish His kingdom, and reign in glory, visible to all people. There are also distinct stages often discussed in Christian theology regarding His return: the "Rapture," where Jesus comes suddenly to take believers to Heaven, and the "Glorious Appearing," when He returns visibly to Earth to establish His rule. The term "Rapture" specifically refers to Jesus coming for believers, while the "Second Coming" includes the later return with power and judgment visible to everyone. In addition, some Christian traditions believe Jesus will have a new name when He returns, as mentioned in the Book of Revelation.
