Maybe he just changed his mind Decided that it isn't worth it
Maybe he decided that we don't deserve it That it would be a waste of time
Maybe he was hijacked by a shooting star Carried away by a light that took him too far
Maybe his father called him home For another, more important, chore
Maybe someone more worthy Needs him a whole lot more
Who knows why? He's not coming back

Nonsense, you silly, nilly, dilly person. Wahhh! Mommy! The big bad wolf is coming! The only thing that is coming back is the blowback from the things we've done. And this blowback is entirely of our own making. Welcome to Responsibility Land, bruh.

"Hope" The last refuge of human cowardice. And the first step on the road to waking up. While millions watch and wait, eyes fixed on the skies, I'll be in the Presence now. I'm not worried, nor do I ask you to be worried for me. I have all the faith I need, to know that, whatever the Ultimate Ground of Being is, it knows my heart, and my heart is clear.

The Christlike spirit is in our hearts when we only open them to pure love. Love allows all things, trusts all things and transcends all things. Namaste.

My nephew is a sucker - like all soldiers throughout history
I hope my nephew gets back in October. He won't be in the best of shape of course. He will spend much of the rest of his life looking for roadside bombs.

You can't even find any contemporary historical records mentioning him so you don't even know that he existed. I.E you don't even know if there was an existent man 2000 years ago who founded the religion that came to be known a Christian. If there was such a person, he was an ordinary man and has none of the supernatural qualities Christianity attributes to him. So in the sense you mean, he was never here in the first place.
You may as well stop praying. Nothing fails like prayer.
Ron Paul was laughed at by the globalist candidates and the rabid reporters at the fox debate. Jesus also was laughed at as he prepared to bring a young girl back to life. Am I a fool to believe? I would be a fool to not believe. The atheist crowd choose live with no hope and refuse to acknowledge the creator,and that is your right and I support that right.
I will hold fast to the old rugged cross. When the coming storm shakes the foundations of this world many will be consumed by fear. Perfect love casts out all fear. If you could only know the rock of the ages in the power of his resurrection you might have some hope for the future,be it good or bad.

The Jesus story is a moving story, whether one believes it to be truth or fiction. For one like myself, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not. I fear neither the future nor eternity. I have no interest in being "saved." I'm not worried about Hell. Any trepidation I have is based on the recognition that life on this planet need not be as bad as we have made it. It could be so much better. And we could make it so, if we grew up a little. Nontheless, I have made my peace with the (for want of a better word) Creator, myself, and life. I glory in the present moment, the eternal Now. And in that moment are "all things shinning," regardless of how good or bad things are with the present state of the human condition. I don't have to wait for later to find out what will happen. I don't have to wait, in hope, for Heaven, or wait in fear of Hell. As Jesus, supposedly, said: "The kingdom of heaven is within you." And he wasn't lying.

He will be entering into Jebus by way of the eastern gate which as predicted by Ezekiel has remained sealed (strange isnt it?) attempts to reopen the gate have failed, check this link;
