Yesterday I shared an excerpt of a sermon on 1Corinthians 1 from Spurgeon, and today I’d like to share how he ended that sermon because I think it is a prayer that all of us should pray…

Remember, this was written in 1904!  There’s some advice that never goes out of style:

So, dear friend, go home, and say, “I solemnly vow, yet not in my own strength; but I solemnly vow, by thy grace, that, from this moment, henceforward, it shall be my aim to live more as a confirmer of the truth! I did not know my high calling before, but I now know that I am a, confirmer of the truth. Lord, help me so to live that there may never be any flaw in my conduct, never any vile word proceed out of my lips, make me so to live that I may confirm thy truth! Lord, help me to confirm the witness of Christ! “Go and register that vow, and that resolution, and seek God’s grace that you may not let it be a vow uncarried out; but may you be able to live to the glory of God, and to the honor of his blessed name! Amen.
