how? by what process?[/b]
Christ's coming is from two directions.
1.) He comes from some place to the earth. Don't ask me where that place is. I don't know that much. But He must travel from there to here physically.
In this day of advance cosmology and worm holes and all kinds of strange new theories, this should be less of a problem to the modern mind than say 400 years ago. He comes from some dimension somewhere. He comes from Heaven.
2.) A far less appreciated fact is that He comes from within in the way of maturity. His life is in some of the people. He is suppose to grow. He is suppose to take them over and develop in them conforming them more and more to His character.
This is like two ends of a circle meeting. He comes from without and He comes from within.
The without we cannot control. But we can allow Him to come into our hearts and grow more and more. Bit by bit. drop by drop. Here a little, there a little - more and more Jesus is to grow in our personality.
He is coming from above and He is coming from within.
