In 2 John 7 :

 hOTI POLLOI PLANOI EXHLQON EIS TON KOSMON hOI MH hOMOLOGOUNTES IHSOUN
CRISTON ERCOMENON EN SARKI hOUTOS ESTIN hO PLANOS KAI hO ANTICRISTOS

"ERCOMENON" here is a "Present Middle participle accusative singular
masculine"
Here "IHSOUN CRISTON ERCOMENON EN SARKI" means "Jesus Christ as coming in
flesh", however it could be understood as "Jesus Christ as the one who has
come in the flesh".
The action is incomplete in ERCOMENON, however i think it could be
understood as it were complete.

Is it correct?,  could we say that a present participle is sometimes
regarded in a perfect aspect?
Do you know about other examples?
