A note attached to the cards, printed in English, German, and French, will state: THIS IS AN ART PROCESS. THIS CARD IS FREE. PLEASE RETURN IT (OR A SUBSTITUTE) TO THE ARTIST WITH ANY MESSAGE. THANK YOU. Ms. van Raay will then proceed to various sites in Venice which have souvenir post card racks. She will place her "Fish in Venice" postcards among the souvenir cards; photograph each rack at its location; record the exact time of placement, and the numbers of the cards, to complete her documentation. She will continue this process until all of the 100 cards have been distributed throughout the city of Venice. "The Second Coming" will then complete itself.
39 of the postcards were returned to me. 8 people sent other things. The results were published in a self-made book "Second Coming."

Introduction
Welcome the Second Coming of Christ | Christian Video "Break the Spell"
| God Is My Salvation
Fu Jinhua is an elder in a house church in China. She has believed in the Lord for a number of years and has always thought that the Bible was inspired by God, that all of the words in the Bible are God's words, that she needs only believe in the Lord
and adhere to the Bible, and when the Lord comes down on a cloud she will be raptured into the kingdom of heaven. However, her coworkers plant a seed of doubt. The four blood moons have appeared, and the prophecies of the Lord's coming have been fulfilled. It stands to reason that the Lord has already returned, so why have we not welcomed Him as He comes down on a cloud? … After some reflection, Fu Jinhua decides to seek and investigate Almighty God's work in the last days. Through fellowship and debates with witnesses from The Church of Almighty God, Fu Jinhua finally clearly sees the path to enter the kingdom of heaven and breaks free of the ""spell"" she's been under for years. She accepts Almighty God's work of the last days, is brought up before God's throne, and attends the wedding feast of the Lamb.

How to Treat Those Who Testify God’s Second Coming?
By Sun Nan
After reading this story, I was inspired and started to think: If no matter what we encounter, we always deal with them by our own notions and imaginations, unwilling to accept others opinions or humbling ourselves, but stubbornly holding to our own imaginations no matter how people speak, our life will be ruined. If we don’t settle our notions, it’s too dangerous. Then I think about brothers and sisters in the church, they are living in a state of passivity and weakness, and are expecting the Lord can return soon; but at the same time, they have many notions and imaginations about the Lord’s return. The majority of them believe that the Lord will descend on the clouds. Some of them imagine that the Lord will come riding on a horse. … Aren’t they just the same as the soldier in the story, who only believes his own notions and imaginations and almost ruin his life? We all know that it is now near the end of the last days. The prophesies in the Bible have basically been fulfilled. It is time for the Lord to return, and the Lord must have returned. So, we must find a church that has the work of the Holy Spirit and follow God’s footsteps. Some people, however, dare not go out seeking and investigating, thinking that there would be false Christs in the last days. For the Lord Jesus said: “And then if any man shall say to you, See, here is Christ; or, see, he is there; believe him not: For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect” (Mark 13:21–22). Many of us believers expound the prophesies according to our notions and imagination, thinking that all news preaching the Lord has returned is false. As long as we don’t listen or read, we’ll not be deceived. But, is this really after the Lord’s will? If we always keep to such notions, being passive and guarding against all the news, will we ignore someone who says that the Lord has returned and miss the opportunity of being raptured into the kingdom of heaven?

Have You Noticed the Signs of the Second Coming?
By Lin Hua
In the church, Pastor Zhu who wore a suit and leather shoes was standing at the pulpit, with a Bible in his hand. He preached: “Brothers and sisters, the prophecies of the the second coming of Jesus in the Revelation have basically been fulfilled. We shall be watching and waiting. Now is the time that the Lord comes again, so we must keep our meetings no matter how weak we are.”...
Brother Zhang seemed to suddenly see the light, he knocked at his head and said: “Oh! I see. The true way has suffered persecution since ancient times. This is why the religious world reacts so sharply to the Eastern Lightning. I think of the Lord Jesus’ words: ‘Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me’ (Rev 3:20). ‘My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me’ (John 10:27). ‘And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes; go you out to meet him’ (Matthew 25:6). From these verses we can see that the Lord told us to welcome and listen to His voice once we hear someone preach the message of His return. Can it be that the Eastern Lightning condemned by them is precisely the return of the Lord Jesus?” Sister Mu thought for a while, then she said: “That’s right! I remember something. At that time, all Judaism wildly opposed and condemned the Lord Jesus. Only those who sought the truth welcomed the coming of the Lord, such as Peter, John, Matthew, Mark, Nathanael, and so forth. They recognized that the Lord Jesus was actually the coming Messiah through seeking and investigating. Besides, because the Lord Jesus exposed the Samaritan woman’s hidden facts of darkness during their conversation, the Samaritan woman recognized through His words that the Lord Jesus was the coming Messiah. They were all wise virgins who recognized the Lord’s voice and welcomed His appearance. On the contrary, when the Pharisees heard the Lord’s voice, not only did they not seek or investigate, nor could they recognize God’s voice, but they crucified the Lord on the cross. Finally, they were forsaken by the Lord, and suffered the loss of their nation. Nowadays, we should never become the modern Pharisees. We should seek and investigate the Eastern Lightning actively, see whether what they are preaching is the return of the Lord Jesus, and listen whether Eastern Lightning is the voice of God. Many verses of the Revelation told us that ‘He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches’ (Rev 2:7).” Hearing their conversation, Sister Wang said with surprise: “Right! The Lord Jesus said: ‘I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. However, when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come’ (Jhn 16:12–13). Can it be that the words of the Spirit of truth are words of God, or words of the Holy Spirit to the churches? Why have so many good sheep of various denominations and sects all accepted the Eastern Lightning? Now, the Eastern Lightning has shaken all denominations and sects. Isn’t this the sign of the second coming?”

How to Welcome Jesus’ Return to Be After God’s Will
Gao Huimin:
Hello, brothers and sisters! Acts 1:11 says: “You men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven.” The Lord left on a white cloud after His resurrection, and so He will return on a white cloud. Holding fast to this viewpoint, I’ve been on constant lookout for the Lord’s descending on a cloud. However, some time ago, I heard from my classmate that the Lord had returned, and that He had become flesh and come down to the earth as the Son of man to do His work and speak. I can’t see this matter clearly. It’s true that the prophecies of the Lord’s second coming have been basically fulfilled. But I still haven’t seen the Lord coming with a cloud to take us. I feel confused: Am I right to await the Lord’s coming on a cloud? I’d like to discuss this with you and hope you can give me some help.
Sister Yu:
I’ve just seen your post, and I feel the same way. In 2000, the pastors said that the Lord would be bound to return and take us back to the heavenly home someday. But it’s 2018 now, and yet we haven’t seen the Lord coming with clouds to take us. Nowadays, disasters are frequently happening all over the world, such as flood, drought, earthquakes and wars, which exactly fulfills the prophecies of the last days the Lord Jesus said to His disciples. Judging from the signs, we can see that the time of the Lord’s return seems to have come. What your classmate said may be a fact. I think the Lord’s coming is an important thing and you should make an investigation.
Sister Zhu:
Sister Gao and Sister Yu, we can’t lose faith in the Lord, because He is trustworthy. The Bible clearly says: “And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory” (Luke 21:27). It was said by the Lord Himself that He will come with clouds at His return, and that every eye will see Him. The Lord’s words won’t be wrong. So there is no need to worry, and we just continue to await the Lord’s descending on a cloud to take us.
