Thirdly, At Christs incarnation, so Luke 2. 10, 11.

(Secondly,) There is the spiritual coming of Christ: and this is in his Ordinances. This is his Chariot wherein he rides on conquering, Psa. 45. 3, 4. Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, and in thy Majesty ride prosperously.

Now in this respect Christ is come, exhibiting himself in the voice of the Gospel: there Christ doth show himself, and impart himself to his people.
