Sermons preached

1. Before Christ's Coming in the Flesh, the Saints waited for him. I have waited for thy Salvation, O Lord, saith Jacob, Gen. 49. 18. And Simeon for Christ, the Saviour of the World; for so it is explained, Mine Eyes have seen thy Salvation. And our Lord tells us, Abraham rejoiced to see my Day, Joh. 8. 56. And it is said of Anna, and others, That they waited for the Consolation of Israel, Luk. 2. 25, 38. And after Christ was come, the Disciples were commanded to wait for the Promise of the Spirit, Acts 1. 4. So by parity of Reason we must wait for the Coming of Christ, for that is the next great Promise to be accomplished, and the great Thing to put Life into our Religion.
