“Behold, I Come-quickly” Rev. xxii, 12.

“It is a very awful and solemn thought, that every one of us must stand before the judgment-seat of Christ. And yet how very apt are we all to forget it. The scoffer says, “Where is the promise of his coming?” and we justly condemn him, but practically we too often act as if he were not coming—as if the Lord Jesus Christ had gone, never to return, never to come again to judge the quick and dead! Yet, ‘The Lord is not slack concerning His promise.’ He has promised, and he has not forgotten his promise, as some men think he has forgotten it: he is simply long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish.”
