I have. The second coming is always a visible, literal and physical return of Christ. This is what Christ taught and what the disciples knew and wrote about. Your position isn't supported as far as the return of Christ is concerned. OT none visible examples of God doing this or that does not apply and is far out of context to the second coming.
Rather, those OT examples form the entire backdrop for the doctrine of the "coming" of Christ,
for it was in this manner of the Father's glory that Christ said he would come (Matt 16:27-28; Lk. 9:26; Matt 24:33-34).
It [Rev 14:14-20] doesn't support your argument simply because it doesn't address the second coming.
Then exegete Revelation 14:14-20 for us...
what Coming of Christ on the clouds to reap the harvest of the earth IS Rev 14:14-20 depicting in your view? And How is/was it different from the "2nd coming" coming of Christ on the clouds for the harvest of the earth?
Show us where scripture teaches these are separate and distinct "comings of Jesus on the clouds to harvest the earth", as you claim.
Have you read Rev 19, the part showing Christ returning with an army? That's a depiction of the second coming.
Kinda like this description of God descending upon Mt Sinai to deliver the tablets to Moses depicted here, right?:
And he said: “The Lord came from Sinai, And dawned on them from Seir; He shone forth from Mount Paran, And He came with ten thousands of saints; From His right hand Came a fiery law for them. (Deuteronomy 33:2)
How come none of the people saw those ten thousand saints? Surely 10,000 saints descending from Heaven upon Mt Sinai would be visible for miles around, no?
As I indicated, The cloud-coming of
Revelation 1:7 that "every eye would see" is shown in
Revelation 14:14-20 to be an event that occurs in the heavenly realms. As the passage reveals, Christ's actions and commands in the heavenlies result in various tribulation-period disasters that transpire on earth. Simply put,
Revelation 14:14-20 is the cloud-coming that "every eye would see." This is significant, for St. John is not describing the coming of Christ as some visual spectacular with cumulus clouds in the skies overhead, but as the coming of Yahweh himself, making Christ equal with the Father, precisely in the manner and tradition of Yahweh's Old-Testament-era comings.
You have to completely ignore or redact these precedent-setting scriptures, and instead apply a totally foreign, hyper-literal definition to this language that would be unrecognizable to Jesus and the Apostles and Prophets of God.
Such remains untenable.
