===Methodism=== [[Methodist]] denominations teach that the Second Coming is connected with the Last Judgment, as professed in the Creeds.<ref name="Gorrie1852">{{cite book |last1=Gorrie |first1=Peter Douglass |title=Episcopal Methodism |date=1852 |publisher=Derby and Miller |page=148 |language=English}}</ref> Methodist denominations differ on the nature of the Second Coming. For example, the [[United Methodist Church]] does not teach that there will be a "[[rapture]]".<ref>{{cite web |title=What does the UMC teach about the second coming? |url=https://www.umc.org/en/content/ask-the-umc-what-does-the-united-methodist-church-teach-about-the-second-coming |publisher=The United Methodist Church |access-date=31 December 2022 |language=en}}</ref> On the other hand, the [[Evangelical Methodist Church Conference]] teaches, with regard to the Second Coming of Christ:<ref name="EMCC2017"/> {{blockquote|We believe that the coming of our Lord is to be personal and pre-millenial, also that it is imminent. We must distinguish between the Rapture—His coming in the air to receive his saints, which may occur at any moment, and the Revelation—His coming down to earth with His saints, the latter of which will not occur until after the gathering of Israel, the manifestation of Antichrist, and other prophesied events.
