What of My House?
Charles H. Spurgeon
Sep 11, 2006

 

September 12 




What of My House? 

"Believe on the LORD Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house"
(Acts 16:31). 

This gospel for a man with a sword at his throat is the gospel for me. This
would suit me if I were dying, and it is all that I need while I am living. I
look away from self, and sin, and all idea of personal merit, and I trust the
LORD Jesus as the Savior whom God has given. I believe in Him, I rest on Him, I
accept Him to be my all in all. LORD, I am saved, and I shall be saved to all
eternity, for I believe in Jesus. Blessed be Thy name for this. May I daily
prove by my life that I am saved from selfishness, and worldliness, and every
form of evil. 

But those last words about my "house": LORD, I would not run away with half a
promise when Thou dost give a whole one. I beseech Thee, save all my family.
Save the nearest and dearest. Convert the children and the grandchildren, if I
have any. Be gracious to my servants and all who dwell under my roof or work
for me. Thou makest this promise to me personally if I believe in the LORD
Jesus; I beseech Thee to do as Thou hast said. 

I would go over in my prayer every day the names of all my brothers and
sisters, parents, children, friends, relatives, servants, and give Thee no rest
till that word is fulfilled, "and thy house."

Hot with Infinite Affection! 




The following is from Spurgeon’s sermon,  “UNPURCHASABLE LOVE.ö 

I tell you, redeemed soul, that God sees you as much as  if there were no
others for his eyes to look upon! 

And he cares for you as infinitely, and with as undivided a heart,  as if you
were the only soul that he ever bought with his blood! 

If you were his only elect one, his only redeemed one,  his only loved one, he
could not deal with you more  tenderly and more lovingly than he is dealing
with you now. 

He can always see you, though you cannot always see him.  When your eye of your
faith is dim, his eye of his care is not. 

When your heart seems dead and cold toward him, his  heart is still Hot with
Infinite Affection Toward You.
