parousia

I agree with your understanding. For the word Parousia does mean presence or arrival. Coming is a bad translation for it is a process. Presence is the end of the "coming" process. Arrival also pictures the end of the "coming" process. "Coming" gives a very bad understanding of the Greek word, parousia.
