What It Means by Christ's Coming 9/2 Monday Meditation

[The examples that Simpson cites were all popular attempts to explain away Christ's Second Coming in Simpson's day.]



1. We do not mean His coming to the individual Christian's heart... This is not His second coming... Indeed, the more we know Jesus spiritually, the more will we long for His personal and eternal presence in the fuller and more glorious sense which His personal advent will bring.

2. We do not mean His coming at death. It is doubtful whether He does really come for us at death...

3. We do not mean... the progress of Christianity. This is nowhere recognized... as the personal coming of Christ...

His truth is to prevail; His cause is to triumph, but He is coming personally, and He is infinitely more than even His truth and cause.



-- A.B. Simpson, The Four-fold Gospel
