Putting in "in context" we always want to make sure yet who is telling us about this "context"? Heb 9:28.. what was talked about before and after this verse? 2nd coming without sin unto salvation. But His one sacrifice He has removed believers sin forever. When He returns He will not come as a sacrifice, nor will He come to condemn and remind believers of theirs sins. He will come to bring what He promised. The inheritance secured and guaranteed by His atoning death.
One can keep saying "third" yet as you have clearly shown there is no NT verse for this it has never been taught. I know some by scrolls after 90ad 300-400ad and on that talked about Christ coming back 2nd time. Never a third time. Yet even what I just said unless its written its just what some believed. Like 300-400ad that Hymn writer/preacher wrote about Christ coming to take the Church before the great tribulation. That in its self is nothing more then what that man believed and those that he wrote to.
Rev 1:7..when was Rev written? He is coming not He did come. Yes when Rev was written tells all here
So where do you come up with third time?
As for a few said.. this means allot to the poster so.. wise not to make fun of him. That's how it came across to me. Sorry OP you were treated this way.

Listen, professor, one thing is not understanding where I'm coming from, quite another is accusing me of having no clue. Your limited knowledge of God's word reveals that it is you who has no clue. I understand God's word far more than you could imagine. The problem is not me, but you sir.
Let me inform you again, so you don't continue to be confused. The first coming of God the Son was the incarnation, God becoming Man and living among us as if He were an ordinary human being which He did for 30 long years. The second coming is when He returned to judge harlot Jerusalem for all her sins against Him from their inception as a nation. You do understand that Yeshua went back to the beginning to accuse the leaders of Israel of why He was judging them, don't you? (Mat. 23:34-38). Paul wrote a few times in reference to the Lord's coming which most Christians have assumed that will happen in the future, just like they assume Revelation is about OUR future, not the future of the believers of the first century. Paul himself tells us in 1Thes. 2:14-16 that the judgment was around the corner, so do you understand that for the judgment to take place the Judge must be present to declare His final word, correct?
Yeshua came for the second time in AD 70 whether you choose to believe it or not, and He will come a third time in His final return to judge the living and the dead.
Perhaps, it is you who has no clue of what the scriptures really teach.

You overestimate the significance of the 70AD destruction of Jerusalem. It was a judgement on Israel, yes- but the old covenant was already over. The existence of the temple did not keep it going.
But besides that- if you're going to say revelation is about the first century, then please do tell us what you think the Abomination of Desolation was at the time, and who the Anti-christ and false prophets were. Because if I had a convincing preterist argument, it would probably include that, and I would lead with that instead of some "third coming!!" Terminology shenanigans. .

Yes, she is participating in the wedding in heaven.
Revelation 19
4And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
5And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
6And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
7Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
This takes place in Heaven before we return with Him to Earth for the Millennial Reign.

1 Thessalonians 4
15 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.
16 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:
17 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.

More over, when in AD70 did you have two witnesses appear?
Also in the biblical account of the end times, what happens is that the gentile nations rise up against Israel, yes, 2/3 of Israel is slaughtered, yes. But one thing that also happens is that the pagan nations who are against Israel will eventually LOSE and get slapped back to last week. That DID NOT happen to the romans! The romans were a-okay.

Actually, the Bible does say Jesus is at the right hand of God, which is a position of power, a position of power given to Him by the Father, so He is second in command. That is explicitly what the Bible teaches:
1 Corinthians 15:27-28
For he “has put everything under his feet.” Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ. When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all.
