Will Christ's second coming be shared online-- by Facebook, Twitter, Google, Youtube?

Christ said His 'appearing' (Parousia) would happen to those standing in front of Him, and within a generation.

The 'stars' along with sun and moon are used in the Old Testament to reference rulers and powers on earth. (Joseph's dream in Genesis is one instance) When John wrote Revelation, he borrowed this imagery to communicate to his audience (the 7 churches in Asia) the fall of present government on earth in the first century.

Revelation is a highly symbolic letter written in apocalyptic style, and it was understood by the first recipients just as we understand our newspapers today. When we try to interpret it 20 centuries later through today's modern filter, everything gets misconstrued. The end of the world we think this is describing is actually the end of the Jewish age (old 'heavens & earth'/Temple righteousness) that first century people witnessed.

So the stars already fell, and the moon already turned to blood, when Jerusalem was destroyed and the Old Covenant world disintegrated. This all happened during the Roman Jewish War from AD 66-70.
