Posted by Chris on 3/22/2007, 4:24 am, in reply to "Re: His Appearing and His Coming" You both know these scriptures so well, so I am not attempting to say anything new to you, but just putting my understanding of the case OK. In 2 Thessalonians 2:8, the word epiphania (G2015) is used as a characteristic, translated (brightness). However in 1 Tim. 6:14, 2 Tim. 1:10 and 4:1,8 and also in Titus 2:13 it is translated (appearing) which is not a characterisation but an 'event', yes? G3952 (Parousia) is translated (coming) each and every time, talking of a bodily presence, yet we are not looking for a bodily presence, here on earth, we are looking for his appearing (manifestation, 'phanaroo,' in glory) where we shall be manifested with Him. [G5319 (Phanaroo) is translated both as manifestation and appearing. In Christ Chris
