Salvation from Hell-or from sin?
(Charles Spurgeon)
"You shall call His name Jesus-for He will save His people from their sins." Matthew 1:21
The mere professor loves a salvation from Hell.
The true Christian loves a salvation from sin.
Everyone desires to be saved from the bottomless pit-but only a child of God pants to be saved from every false way. We love the Gospel because it saves us . . .
from selfishness,
from pride,
from lust,
from worldliness,
from bitterness,
from malice,
and from sloth.
"Because I consider all Your precepts to be right, I hate every wrong path." Psalm 119:128
