Hebrews9:28
28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many, and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin n unto salvation.
[non-Latin text not transcribed], is an illative Connection between the Antecedent, v. 27. and this Consequent, as it was appointed to Men once to die, so it was appointed to Christ once to offer himself. God's Statute determineth both of these; Christ the High-Priest opposed to Men, v. 27. having died once as a Sacrifice for Sins, and offered his Blood to God to expiate them, bearing their Punishment which God laid on him, Isa. 53.6. and so took away Sins, Guilt, Filth, Power, and Condemnation from many, whom the Father gave to him, and he undertook for, in it, Matth. 20.28. and 26.28. Ioh. 10.15, 16.
And to his believing penitent Expectants, such as long for his coming, Phil. 3.20. Tit. 2.13. stretching out their Heads as the Mother of Sisera, Judg. 5.28. with an holy Impatience of seeing him, such as by Faith and Prayer are hastning it, Rom. 8.23. 2 Cor. 5.1, to 10. 1 Pet. 1.3, to 10. shall he once more visibly appear to them and the World, Acts 1.11. Revel. 1.7. gloriously, without need to suffer or die again for them, having at his Departure after his first coming, carried all their Sins into the Land of Forgetfulness;
and to their Persons will he bring intire and compleat Salvation, rising and uniting Bodies and Souls together, Phil. 3.21. and then take them as Assistants to himself in the Judgment-work on Men and Angels in the Air; and having dispatched that Work, return with them to the Holy of Holiest in Heaven, there to be compleately blessed, in praising, serving, glorifying, and enjoying God in Christ, and the Blessedness that attends that State for ever, and ever as 1 Cor. 6.2, 3. 1 Thess. 4.17.
