The Sovereignty of God in Salvation

An encouragement to Gospel proclamation from C. H. Spurgeon:

Children of God, whatever you have not got, you have a God in whom you may greatly glory. Having God you have more than all things, for all things come of him; and if all things were blotted out, he could restore all things simply by his will. He speaketh, and it is done; he commandeth, and it stands fast. Blessed is the man that hath the God of Jacob for his trust, and whose hope Jehovah is. In the Lord Jehovah we have righteousness and strength; let us trust in him for ever. Let the times roll on, they cannot affect our God.

"A Sermon for the Time Present," The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, Vol. 33 (London: Passmore and Alabaster, 1887), 605-6. The sermon was preached 30 October 1887.
