Greek for “presence”—refers to Christ’s fulfilled return in 70 A.D., not a future event.
What is
Parousia
Parousia is a Greek word meaning “presence” or “arrival.” TGNN teaches that it refers to Christ’s spiritual coming in 70 A.D., not a visible future return to earth.
ExplanationIn many theological traditions, Parousia is interpreted as a yet-to-happen physical return of Jesus. But TGNN emphasizes the original Greek meaning—“presence” or “arrival”—and teaches that the Parousia occurred in 70 A.D. as a spiritual fulfillment of Jesus’ promise to return within a generation (Matthew 24:34).This coming was not about Jesus touching down on earth, but about His divine presence in judgment, vindication, and transition. It marked the conclusion of the old covenant system and the full establishment of the Kingdom of God in the Age of the Spirit.Understanding the Parousia this way reframes Jesus’ return as already accomplished—bringing peace, not expectation or fear.
