That quote was from the New Testament. Jesus, as depicted in the New Testament, is portrayed as believing wholeheartedly in the Old Testament. Why modern Christians reject much of the Old Testament and embrace the New is a mystery to me. Clearly it has something to do with the really wacky stories you find in the Old Testament that couldn't possibly be true, but the New Testament isn't much more reliable. It speaks of things to come all right, but the New Testament makes it clear that all Jesus' predictions were supposed to happen within the lifetimes of the people Jesus was talking to, which obviously was not the case. So while it speaks of things to come, there is a definite time limit for the predictions set out by Jesus himself, which has passed without the predictions coming true. Therefore, the Second Coming is clearly as fictional as Noah's Flood.
