Answer: The Messiah will not be a savior who comes to
rescue individuals solely from sin. He will be the leading
representative of the Jewish people in all respects
and will fulfill his mission during his lifetime (no
second advent is needed). It is he who will complete
the ingathering of the Jewish exiles and who will bring
about a world at peace where "the earth will be full
of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the
sea" (Isaiah 11:9). Obviously, he has not yet come.
