4. Whence, and whither Christ shall come.
WE look for our judge Christ from heaven: For whither the Apostle saw him ascend, from thence shall he come.1 The Lord Jesus shall show himself from heaven, with his mighty Angels. Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of the power of God, and come in the clouds of the heaven. From heaven then, where he sitteth at Gods right hand (not out of the air, or the sea, or the earth:2 For as ye have seen him go into heaven, so shall he come.) He shall descend into the clouds; that is, he shall descend from heaven visibly into this region of the air, as he did indeed visibly ascend. These things are necessarily proposed, that the Church may know whence to expect their Judge and Redeemer: For as he will have it known whither he ascended, so also will he have it known whence he shall come again: that he might thereby signify that he hath not laid away that humane nature which he took.
