Hello!
Would you help me with the translation of the word PAROUSIA ?
Does it denote "arriving, appearing" or just "presence (without
coming)" ?
Some people point out that PAROUSIA literally means "to be present"
and thus applying this meaning to the "coming of the Lord Jesus" they
deny that there is such coming.
As I have read the context of many passages I think that it means
"coming" or "being present by the result of appearing,coming" , that
is, "coming" would be more accurate translation.
So does PAROUSIA mean "coming" or just "presence"?
Thank you
