It is not always easy to hold together the indicatives of the gospel (what God has done in salvation) with the imperatives of the gospel (the demands of and responses to the gospel). Spurgeon does so here masterfully, holding up the finished work of Christ both for adoration and emulation, as something for us to rest in for our souls and to copy in our lives. It is a stirring call to Christian service, and truly lifts the heart.
