When Jesus Christ returns to set up his world-wide theocracy at the end of the Great Tribulation, he will dismiss the scotus, the US Constitution, all federal, state and local laws, and put His law in practice. No more ssm, no more abortion, no more legal divorce, no more homosexuals, no more adultery that does not carry a death sentence. Lots of changes coming, and it won't be long until they arrive.

and when the messiah will come the Jewish temple will come from the sky to Jerusalem.
until then, we live in secular society
"When Jesus Christ returns"
Reporter: "I'm here in the hotel room that the returned Jesus is staying at for the moment. And first, Jesus, how come you've only returned now, when you before you left the first time, told your disciples that you'd return in such a short time that some of them would still be alive to see You coming back?"
Jesus (puts down his glass of water turned into wine): "I spoke from the fact that we, my fellow magic-spaceship astronauts and me, were going to return in such an amount of time from OUR point of view. It wasn't until I had been beamed up and we were getting ready for departure I remembered we were gonna travel at reaaallly close to the speed of light!"
Reporter: "You forgot to factor in time dilation?"
Jesus: "Yes!" (Slaps forehead like Homer Simpson) "D'OH!!"
Jesus is going to have to deal with the U.S. military, because they've sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
no more adultery that does not carry a death sentence
Because in the bible story when they brought the adulteress before him, Jesus said, "sure, stone the shit out of her!"
According to some sect of Christianity, 1000 years is like a day to God. A generation generally is 40 years. So by doing the math...
I'm using 364.25 so I can account for the Leap Years
364.25 x 40 = 14,570 days
...add a few zeros... 14,570,000 days
14,570,000 / 354.25 = 40,000 years.
This might take awhile.
You mean Jesus's rules about treating others as you would be treated, loving thy neighbor, respecting the law of the land, and not being a dick?
Wow are people like YOU in for a rude awakening. Better hope he takes his time, Gary.
If he's gong to put his law into practice, it will mean this that anyone that has been working on the sabbath, wearing mixed fabrics, eating shellfish, planting two crops in the same field, or trimming their hair and beard are pretty much going to get a death sentence, right? You haven't been doing any of those, have you Gary? Better check your clothing labels...
When Jesus Christ returns, he will probably return to the place he went to last time; the Middle East. The Americas are not even mentioned in the Bible.
Ever hear "Render unto Caesar..."?
Chapter and verse where abortion is against His law, please.
Lots of changes indeed. No more eating shellfish, no more working on the Sabbath, no more sowing the wrong crop in the wrong field, no more mixing of fabrics, no more eating pork, no more mixing milk and meat, no more presenting newborns to family members before the fortieth day, no more letting menstruating women out in public, no more...
Nah, it won't be long now; any millennium.
Don't hold your breath, Gary.
(Actually, do: it'd be fun to watch.)
So the obvious solution is to imprison the bastard. I normal don't subscribe to an anti-theist approach, because most people who are religious don't believe their god is as monstrous as this.
But when a believer says stuff like the OP, well I think we can all agree that if it were true, we killed the asshole once, we'll do it again. We don't negotiate with terrorists, the Jesus you describe is a terrorist.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
