Christ Expected in His Own Way

A minister in San Francisco tells us that "one of the saddest things in the life of our Lord is that he came at a time when he was not expected." But he was expected, all the world was in expectancy, and the devout of Israel, like Simeon and Anna, were "waiting for the consolation of Israel." The difficulty with the majority was that they were looking for Christ to come according to their own ideas. So many are expecting him now, but not in his way as set forth in the Word.
