Active Obedience - C H Spurgeon

Phil Johnson over at Pyromaniacs posted a weekly dose of Spurgeon on his blog. In this excerpt, Spurgeon spoke about Justification and Glory and the active obedience of Christ. The excerpt is available here.

One paragraph from Spurgeon reminded me again of the beauty and truth of the Gospel. Spurgeon said,

This justification then comes to sinners as an act of pure grace, the foundation of it being Christ's righteousness. The practical way of its application is by faith. The sinner believeth God, and believeth that Christ is sent of God, and takes Christ Jesus to he his only confidence and trust, and in that act he becomes a justified soul.
