Jesus returns because God brings Jesus back. Thus proving that Jesus isn't the great God.
1 Thessalonians 4
14For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again,
even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
Titus 2
13Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of
the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Jesus doesn't return under his own power, similar to how Acts says Jesus didn't go to heaven under his own power. This is why Jesus is brought back the same way he was taken:
Acts 1
11“Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky?
This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven.”
nope read again as this single verse refutes your false claims.
2 Thessalonians 2:8
8 Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by
the appearance(epiphenia
) of His
coming(parousia
);
Above we see both words are combined to the singular event- the 2nd Coming of Christ.
Peter refers to Christ as our God and Saviour- Lord and Saviour just the same as Paul in
Titus 2:13 and it’s the same Greek construction in
Titus 2:13 as it is in
2 Peter 1:1and
1:11.
And the One who is coming / appearing in the NT is always the Son and NEVER the Father

8 in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing.

13 looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,
Titus 2:13
Of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ tou megalou Theou kai sooteeros Ieesou Christou. This is the necessary meaning of the one article with Theou and sooteeros just as in
2 Peter 1:1,
11. See Robertson, Grammar, p. 786. Westcott and Hort read Christou Ieesou.

And
2 Thessalonians 2:8 links both His appearing / coming as the same event of Christ not the Father. Both epiphenea and parousia together below in the same verse.
2 Thessalonians 2:8
8 Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming;
1 Peter 1:7
7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
Conclusion : This is where Unitarians really fail badly because they are so consumed with disproving the Deity of Christ that they fail with a well rounded theology which would benefit them greatly . You see how all biblical doctrines fit together seamlessly and especially in this case prove beyond all doubt that the one and only Person Paul was referring to in
Titus 2:13 as God was Jesus and not the Father for He is never once in Scripture referred to as the One who is Coming/ Appearing .
hope this helps !!!
