I. JESUS CHRIST WILL COME AGAIN.

1. Not in humble guise, but in His glorious majesty.

2. Not to procure salvation, but to inquire who among men have sought His salvation and accepted His offers, and to pronounce sentence accordingly.

II. CHRIST WILL COME WHEN WE DO NOT EXPECT HIM.

1. The world generally will be unprepared.

2. For each of us, death is the coming of the Son of Man.

III. THE NECESSITY OF BEING PREPARED TO MEET OUR GOD WHEN HE COMES.

1. Are you forgiven?

2. Are you growing in holiness?

(A. Bibby.)
