I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing."-- 2 Timothy 4:6-8.
[365]The book of Revelation in our Bible is the revelation of Jesus Christ which he gave after his glorification.

He concludes this revelation by stating to St.John: "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly"; to which St.John replies, "Even so, come, Lord Jesus" .-- Revelation 22:20.
[366]That the Lord is to have a kingdom of righteousness, that Jesus Christ is to be the great King of that kingdom, and that he is coming a second time for the purpose of thus reigning, is so abundantly established by the Scriptures that all possible doubt is removed.

An important question, therefore, for us to determine is HOW HE COMES [367]We must make up our minds at once that the Bible testimony concerning the manner of our Lord's coming is to be taken as conclusive.
A careful examination of this will disclose the fact that the Bible does establish definitely and reasonably the manner of his appearing.

Many have supposed and yet suppose that the Lord will come again in his body of humiliation, the very body in which he was crucified and which has the marks upon it, and that such is to be visible to human eyes.

The words of Jesus disprove this conclusion.
