“When He Comes Again” is the “suggested song” for the New Testament lesson “The Son of Man Shall Come” studying JS Matt 1; Matthew 24-25; Mark 12-13; Luke 21.
In the Come Follow Me Lesson Manual it says:
“It can be unsettling to read about the events leading up to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. But when Jesus prophesied of these events, He told His disciples to “be not troubled” (Joseph Smith—Matthew 1:23). How can you “be not troubled” as you hear about earthquakes, wars, deceptions, and famines?”
One thought I turn to sometimes is “All will be made right someday through Christ, our Lord”; this belief brings me peace. Another thought I can go to is, “Mankind has the greatest gift of all, agency, and the only thing I can really focus on is what I choose to do with that gift.”
The following scriptures are excerpts from Joseph Smith Matthew. In the manual, it explains what this book of scripture is. It says “Joseph Smith—Matthew, located in the Pearl of Great Price, is the Joseph Smith Translation of the last verse of Matthew 23 and all of Matthew 24. Joseph Smith’s inspired revisions restore precious truths that had been lost. Verses 12–21 refer to the destruction of Jerusalem anciently; verses 21–55 contain prophecies about the last days.”
- Joseph Smith Matthew 1:35 Although, the days will come, that heaven and earth shall pass away; yet my words shall not pass away, but all shall be fulfilled. 37 And whoso treasureth up my word, shall not be deceived, for the Son of Man shall come, and he shall send his angels before him with the great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together the remainder of his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
