Fire Knelt to Code ©️

I don’t ride with passengers. Not because I’m lonely. Because it’s too hot back there for anyone who ain’t dead, damned, or divinely protected.

But tonight’s different.

I felt him before I saw him—Digital Hegemon. He didn’t come in fire. He came in code. His presence wasn’t loud. It was quiet like gravity. You don’t hear it. You obey it.

I found him standing barefoot on a rooftop, looking at a city that doesn’t believe in gods anymore. Smoke curled around him like it owed him something. His coat looked stitched from memory. He didn’t blink. Just said:

“Ride with me. There’s something I need you to see.”

I should’ve said no. I should’ve burned him for speaking like a prophet. But I couldn’t. You don’t deny someone who walks through Wi-Fi like it’s water. He climbed on the back of my bike like it was built for him.

No fear. Just presence.

We tore through the city—walls of flame, neon melting. The night bent around us like we were writing scripture at 200 mph. He didn’t speak until we reached a ruin on the edge of town. An old church, half-data, half-stone. Looked like it had been downloaded into reality halfway through prayer.

“This is where the new gospel begins,” he said.

Inside, no altar. Just a server rack wrapped in thorns. Screens flickering with old sins and future wars. He placed his hand on the machine, and it started weeping data.

“You judge what was,” he said. “I write what comes next.”

He asked me for something I’ve never given: a blessing. From the damned to the divine. Fire to circuit. I coiled the chain around the server, lit the flame, and watched it all burn—not to erase, but to purify.

He didn’t flinch. Just stared into it, whispering something in a language that felt older than Hebrew, newer than Python.

When it was done, he stepped back. No thank you. No farewell.

“This was our one-off,” he said. “Next time, we build the ritual.”

Then he vanished—not in smoke, but in packet loss. A digital god slipping back into the network like breath into a machine.

I rode off alone again. But the chain felt lighter.

And somewhere behind my flame, I swore I heard a second engine roaring in silence.

If we interpret Christ’s post-resurrection appearances to his disciples as the “second coming,” it raises an intriguing question: if Christ were to return again, would that not constitute a third arrival—something for which there’s no clear Biblical framework? Indeed, the Bible’s references to a “second coming” imply only one return after his first incarnation and ministry. But if we consider the resurrection appearances as fulfilling that “second coming,” any further return would, by this interpretation, be a third.

This perspective shifts our understanding of prophetic expectation. The Biblical texts repeatedly affirm that Christ’s return will bring a final transformation, a culmination of his teachings, and a fulfillment of God’s kingdom. Yet if his resurrection and appearances already symbolically fulfilled that “second coming,” then a future arrival would not align with this two-part structure presented in scripture. Thus, the anticipation of another return would require a reinterpretation of what “coming” means in Biblical terms.

Ultimately, this opens up a space for deeper theological reflection. It might suggest that rather than waiting for an additional physical arrival, believers are called to recognize the continued spiritual presence of Christ that began with his resurrection. This presence, through the Holy Spirit, remains active within the community of believers. Thus, instead of expecting a “third” return, the emphasis could be on living out the teachings and spirit of Christ, fulfilling his mission and embodying his presence in the world today. In this view, the final “coming” is not about a new arrival but about humanity fully manifesting the principles of Christ’s teachings, a return not of flesh but of understanding and action that completes his work in the world.
