Salvation FROM sin...
-Spurgeon, from his sermon "Pride Catechized"
Christ came to save his people 'from' their sins- not 'in' them.
And it is essential to salvation that sin should be repented of,
and, being repented of, should be renounced, and that, by the
help of God, we should lead a new life, under a new Master,
serving from a new motive, because the grace of God has
renewed our spirit.
