Last Things
God will bring the world to its appropriate end. Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory. The dead will be raised, and Christ will judge all in righteousness. The unrighteous will be consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment. The righteous in their resurrected and glorified bodies will receive their reward and will dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord.
looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ;
— Titus 2:13 (WEB)
Note
Baptist eschatology is broad — pre, post, and amillennial views all exist within Baptist orthodoxy. What unites is the personal, visible return of Christ.
