False. He isn't coming back. Certainly most have heard the reason:

Aliens visit Earth, meet with various leaders of the world. They meet with the Pope, who of course tries to tell them of Christianity.

Pope: “You know of Jesus already?” Alien: “Of course we do. He visits regularly.”

Pope: “He’s only been here once. We are still awaiting His Second Coming!”

Alien: “Wow! When He came to us, we had a big party and gave Him our chocolate to try. He loved it and keeps coming back. What did you lot do to Him?”
