재림, or "Second Coming," refers to the belief in the return of 예수 그리스도 (Jesus Christ) to Earth, as prophesied in Christian theology. This event is often associated with the fulfillment of biblical prophecies found in the 신약 성경 (New Testament), particularly in the books of 마태복음 (Matthew) and 요한계시록 (Revelation). Many Christians believe that the 재림 will bring about the final judgment of humanity and the establishment of God's kingdom. Different denominations interpret the timing and nature of this event in various ways, leading to diverse beliefs about its significance and implications for believers and the world.
