Rev. 16:15• 15Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. (Rev. 16:15)
 while the words "appearing," "day," etc., are special (and never used, I think, except where responsibility is concerned) the word "coming" is general; and though applicable, if the context so require it, to cases of responsibility, it is in itself of wider character and is used therefore to express our Lord's return in nothing but grace. In other words, the appearing, day, or revelation of Christ is still His coming or presence; but His coming does not necessarily mean His appearing, revelation, or day. He may come without appearing, and I believe that there is proof from Scripture that so it is when He receives us to Himself on high; but His "appearing" is that further stage of His coming again, when every eye shall see Him. (Remarks on Matthew 24:32-51 by W. Kelly)
 The great point is to be doing His will. (Remarks on Matthew 24:32-51 by W. Kelly)
