Salvation encompasses deliverance from the guilt of past sins, the power of sin in our lives, and the wrath of God. It is a comprehensive liberation that transforms us from being slaves to sin into children of God, free from condemnation. This transformation is not just about avoiding future punishment but about experiencing the fullness of life in Christ now. [00:04:00]
Salvation brings to us the blotting out of the transgressions of the past, acquittal from criminality, purging from all guiltiness that we may stand accepted before the great judge. What man in his sober senses will deny that forgiveness is an unspeakably desirable blessing? But Salvation means more than that; it includes deliverance from the power of sin. [00:04:02]
When salvation comes, it delivers the man from The Power of sin. He learns that it is evil and he regards it as such, loathes it, repents that he has ever been in love with it, turns his back upon it, becomes through God's spirit the master of his lusts, puts the flesh beneath his feet, and Rises into the liberty of the children of God. [00:05:00]
Salvation includes deliverance from the present wrath of God which abides upon the unsaved man every moment of his life. Every person who is Unforgiven is the object of divine wrath. God is angry with the wicked every day. If he turns not, he will wet his sword. He that believeth not is condemned already. [00:06:23]
Salvation takes a man from Under The Cloud of divine wrath and reveals to him the Divine love. He can then say, "Oh God, I will praise thee, though thou was angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comforted me." Oh, it is not hell Hereafter which is the only thing a sinner has to fear; it is the wrath of God which rests upon him now. [00:07:20]
Salvation is a triumphant deliverance from the guilt of Sin, from the Dominion of it, from the curse of it, from the punishment of it, and ultimately from the very existence of it. Salvation is the death of sin, its burial, its Annihilation, yay, and the Very obliteration of its memory. [00:10:12]
Salvation appears to me to be of the first importance when I think of what it is in itself, and for this reason, I have at the outset set it forth before your eyes. But you may be helped to remember its value if you consider that God the father thinks highly of Salvation. [00:11:12]
Jesus Christ, the only begotten, thinks salvation most important, for he bled, he died to accomplish it. Shall I bide with that which cost him his life? If he came from Heaven to Earth, shall I be slow to look from Earth to Heaven? Shall that which cost the Savior a life of zeal and a death of Agony be of small account with me? [00:12:00]
The Holy Ghost thinks it no trifle, for he condescends to work continually in the new creation that he may bring about salvation. He is often vexed and grieved, yet he continues still his abiding labors that he may bring many sons unto Glory. Despise not what the Holy Ghost esteems, lest thou despise the Holy Ghost himself. [00:12:40]
If you are saved, it will be your own salvation, and you yourself will enjoy it. If you are not saved, the sin you now commit is your own sin, the guilt your own guilt, the condemnation under which you live with all its disquietude and fear or with all its callousness and neglect is your own, all your own. [00:19:56]
You must yourself repent, yourself believe, yourself be washed in the blood, or else for you there is no forgiveness, no acceptance, no adoption, no regeneration. It is all a personal matter through your own salvation it must be, or it will be your own Eternal ruin. Reflect anxiously that you must personally die. [00:21:00]
If you are saved, you have turned your back on sin. You have not left off sinning, would to God we could do so, but you have left off loving sin. You sin not willfully but from infirmity, and you are earnestly seeking after God and Holiness. You have respect to God; you desire to be like him. [00:40:28]
