The Necessity of Detailed Obedience
“I say, again, that detailed obedience is the surest evidence that the Lord has forgiven your sin. For instance, ‘He who
C.H Spurgeon 1893, Sermon #2337
believes and is baptized shall be saved.’ Do not omit any part of that precept. And if Christ bids you come to His
Table and thus remember Him, do not live in neglect of that command. At the same time, remember to live soberly,
righteously, honestly, godly in this present evil age, for if you do not, if there is not a detailed obedience, there may be
a fear that, after all, the Lord has never said to you, ‘Your sins are forgiven you.’”
