When Jesus comes back will he have to be human? ~ Kenny W. Briscoe
When Jesus comes back, it will be in the air to receive the children of God, both the living and the dead.
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 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: 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” (1 Thessalonians 4:13-17).
While Jesus may have human form upon His return, obviously, He will exhibit divine qualities as He will be in the air or sky, and from there summon both the righteous living and dead to His side. Afterward, the destination of the same is eternity in heaven (John 14:1-3). The Bible does not teach that Christ will live once more on the earth.
