Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Visible Return

This verse describes a future inability to find Jesus and an inability to go where he is, which does not inherently describe a return, visible or otherwise. The language focuses on separation and inaccessibility, not on a future appearance.
