The Second Coming

National Geographic travels inside the worlds of three men who believe the Second Coming has already occurred and that they walk the earth as the Messiah. Pastor Apollo Quiboloy, the founder of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ in the Philippines, claims to have built up a worldwide following of six million. Sergei Torop, a former Russian traffic policeman, is believed by thousands to be the literal reincarnation of Jesus of Nazareth. Finally, David Shayler, a former British MI5 agent and whistle-blower, claims to be the Jesus soul incarnated as man. Explore why these men believe they are Jesus Christ and why so many people are prepared to accept their extraordinary claims.
