Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
If Jesus returns and he can be seen in the sky then what about those people which live in a country which does not face Jesus because the earth is turning?
Let's say Jesus comes from left to the sun then a lot of countries will not even be able to see him when he comes. Does the bible teach that everybody will see him at the same time? Cause this would sound like the bible teaches a flat earth.

Dear Brother- Other Scriptures declare He will be seen from the East to the West, etc. Secondly- God's Word speaks of the brightness of His coming- (Brightness of His Glory) at His return.
Third- Christ will return as King of Kings and Lord of Lord's, from the "3rd Heaven", which is out beyond the celestial Heavens.
You can find in God's word if read, the 1st Heavens is the firmament around the earth. the Second Heaven is the "Celestial Heavens" and the 3rd is God's Domain, from which satan and his followers were cast from.
So, from that distance, and showing pure Glorious Brightness, do you not think every eye shall see his coming back?
God Bless my friend!!

But not at the same time.
I mean this is like saying everybody on earth can see the sun at the same time. When we see the sun others cannot see it. This is how I imagine it with Jesus. If he comes from 1 point in space then not everybody can see him at the same time. Maybe in Europe they'll see him and in Australia they won't.

Dear Friend- You forget God's Glory is as bright if not brighter than the sun, as constantly refered to in His Word. Do you not think that kind of pure brightness would not shine clear over to us here from the moment Christ enters our physical world?
Secondly- As mentioned, the Brightness of His Glory as He returns will shine to all the four corners- North, South, East and West, of the earth as declared. This is not saying from the first moment He will be recognized as Christ, but shortly there after He will when realized what this "Light" of Glory means.
Remember my boy, even many of God's first chosen did not recognize Christ as the Messiah when He spoke it earnestly. Later they did, while still others would not. But, as God declares, every eye shall see this, but recognizing what It means is another thing.
