There are two ways of looking at the Lord's Coming. There is looking for and there is a looking at it. It is possible to look at it with keen intellect and profound interest, and yet have it mean nothing to us personally. It is possible to know but little of the theology and exegesis of the subject, and yet have a deep and holy longing for our Lord to appear. When a wedding is about to occur, the public is looking at it, but the bride is looking for it. Oh, that this great theme may not only be our study but our personal hope, for unto them that look for Him shall He appear a second time without sin unto salvation.
-A. B. Simpson
