From the 3 hour EDP, which 2 prophecies does the returning Christ being born on earth fulfill and explain how each is fulfilled.
1. "But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation." Jesus foresaw that at the Second Advent, the Christians would be likely to persecute the Christ and condemn him as a heretic when he is born in the flesh. That is why he foretold that the Lord would suffer and be rejected by his generation.
2. "On that day many will say to me, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?” And then will I declare to them, “I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.”" At the Second Advent of Christ, those Christians who expect his miraculous and glorious appearance will almost certainly reject him if he comes in the flesh of humble birth. No matter how faithful they may be, the Lord will be left with no choice but to abandon them because they will have transgressed against God.
