The Second Coming of Jesus Christ
By H. M. Butler
THERE is a second coming of Jesus Christ. It is often spoken of as the "second advent." "We believe that He will come to be our Judge." This human life of ours on earth is not intended by God, who gave it, to last forever. Here it is stamped by three dark shadows—the shadow of sin, the shadow of9sorrow, and the shadow of death. They will not be forever. There will be a close of what is expressively, if not unconsciously, called this earthly "scene;" and then a great change. Jesus Christ will be revealed, to good and bad alike, with a "glorious majesty" that may either be feared or welcomed, but can not be questioned or ignored. "Heaven and earth shall pass away; but My words shall not pass away."—Rev. H. M. Butler.
