For so experimental a preacher as Spurgeon, this is an important sermon on the triumph of faith over feeling in the matter of the forgiveness of our sins. From his text, “Make me to know my transgression and my sin,” he draws some consolation for those who are praying such prayers; then there is instruction as to the way God answers such prayers; then there is discrimination between the work of the Spirit and of the devil with regard to the sense of sin; finally, there is exhortation to come to the Christ who can cleanse from every sin. Striking particularly at hyper-Calvinism, and with many plain pastoral counsels, this is a sermon to blow apart some false notions of spiritual experience, and to bring us in faith to Christ for enduring comfort and peace.
