Dan. 7:13 "As I watched in the night visions, I saw one like a human being coming with the clouds of heaven. And he came to the Ancient One and was presented before him."
Do you think this inspired the idea meeting the lord in the air on the last days?
Clouds are really used as a metaphor .
Jeremiah used clouds to describe the coming of the king of Assyria, 4:13 "Look! He comes up like clouds, his chariots like the whirlwind; his horses are swifter than eagles" woe to us, for we are ruined!"

As an agnostic and a skeptic to all of this stuff, I think to myself : "At least one of them is right, but both can't be. AND.. of course, both can be wrong."JehovahsWitness wrote:
No you are wrong, Jesus was never accused of "claiming to be God" in any of the gospel accounts.

dio9 wrote:According to these Jesus was accused of that blasphemy.
I wonder what crime Jesus was punished for?
