The Two Advents: Contrast Between Them
Acts 1:10-11
And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;…


Christ came the first time in the guise of humanity; He is to come the second time in brightness, as a light to the godly, a terror to the wicked. He came the first time in weakness, He is to come the second time in might; the first time in our littleness, the second time in His own majesty; the first time in mercy, the second in judgment; the first time to redeem, the second to recompense, and that all the more terribly because of the long-suffering and delay.

(A. Hildebert.)
