Is come.
We understand the person, let us come to his Coming. And herein, Ecce veritatem; behold his Truth. Did God promise a Son of a virgin; Emanuel, a Saviour? He is as good as his word; Venit, he is come. Did the sacrificed blood of so many Bulls, Goats, and Lambs, prefigure the expiatory blood of the Lamb of God to be shed? mEcce agnus Dei; Behold that Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world. Is the Seed of the woman promised to break the head of the serpent? Behold he breaks the heavens, and comes down to do it. nFor this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the Devil. Did God engage his word for a Redeemer to purge our sins? oCall his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.
