Understand this market
This market is asking whether the event described in Christian theology as the Second Coming — Jesus Christ physically returning to Earth — will happen before the end of 2026. A Yes means that event occurs and is widely recognized as having occurred. A No means it does not happen by that deadline, which is how this market will almost certainly settle, given the nature of the question.

Read the full market guide →Prediction markets currently show this question resolving 'No' by an overwhelming margin, with volume heavily concentrated against the occurrence of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ before 31 December 2026. The market is structured as a binary yes/no question with resolution dependent on a consensus of credible sources confirming such an event. No credible sources currently report any such event occurring.
Market structure
The market is a single binary outcome — 'Yes' if the Second Coming of Jesus Christ occurs by 31 December 2026, 11:59 PM ET, and 'No' otherwise. Volume is overwhelmingly concentrated on the 'No' outcome. Resolution is determined by a consensus of credible sources. The market carries an inherent methodological complexity: the nature of the event makes defining a credible-source consensus exceptionally difficult to operationalise.
Background
Prediction markets occasionally list questions touching on theological or metaphysical events, typically attracting very low volume and functioning more as curiosities than liquid markets. The Second Coming of Jesus Christ is a central eschatological concept in Christianity, described across the New Testament and elaborated through centuries of theological tradition. Numerous historical figures and movements have predicted imminent returns, none of which were confirmed. The question sits at an unusual intersection of religious belief, measurable probability, and market mechanics — making it one of the more philosophically contested resolution scenarios a prediction market can host.
Key factors
The primary structural challenge for this market is resolution: identifying a 'consensus of credible sources' for a theological or supernatural event has no established precedent in journalism, law, or institutional frameworks. Competing religious interpretations of what constitutes the Second Coming — bodily return, spiritual manifestation, symbolic fulfilment — mean that even hypothetical triggering events could be disputed across denominations and institutions. The deadline is fixed at 31 December 2026, after which a 'No' resolution is automatic in the absence of a confirmed event. Market operators would face significant definitional questions if any event were claimed as fulfilment by a subset of sources but disputed by others.
FAQ
How is the 'Will Jesus Christ return before 2027?' market resolved?
The market resolves 'Yes' if a consensus of credible sources confirms the Second Coming of Jesus Christ has occurred by 31 December 2026, 11:59 PM ET. It resolves 'No' if no such consensus is reached by that deadline.
When does the Jesus Christ Second Coming prediction market resolve?
The market resolves at 31 December 2026, 11:59 PM ET. If no credible-source consensus confirming the event exists by that point, the market resolves automatically to 'No'.
What happens if a religious group claims the Second Coming has occurred but others dispute it?
Resolution depends on a consensus of credible sources, not the claims of any single group or denomination. A disputed or minority claim would not be sufficient for a 'Yes' resolution; broad agreement across independent credible sources would be required.
What does the market currently show for the Second Coming question?
Volume is overwhelmingly concentrated on the 'No' outcome. The 'Yes' outcome attracts minimal backing, making this one of the most one-sided markets by implied trader sentiment currently listed on the platform.
