DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

C.H. Spurgeon emphasizes the necessity of a profound transformation in
the life of a true Christian, arguing that without a significant change
from one's sinful nature, one remains in a state of spiritual bondage.
He challenges those who claim to be believers but have not experienced
this transformation, urging them to reflect on their spiritual state and
seek genuine salvation. Spurgeon asserts that every individual must turn
away from the path of sin, which leads to destruction, and instead
embrace a life directed towards holiness and eternal life. The sermon
calls for deep self-examination and a sincere pursuit of a relationship
with God.

I sometimes meet with persons who claim to be Christians and believers
and all that, but they have never experienced any change that they can
remember from their babyhood. Well, dear friend, there must have been
such a change if you are a Christian. I will not say that you ought to
know the day and the hour, but, depend upon it, if you are now what you
were when you were born, you are in the gall of bitterness and in the
bonds of iniquity. If there has not been a turning you are going the
wrong way; every man must be turned from the way in which father Adam
set his face, for our face is towards sin and destruction, and we must
be turned right round so as to have our faces towards holiness and
everlasting life. Where there is not such a turning there is the most
solemn cause for heart-searching and humiliation and for the seeking of
salvation.

Have you undergone a great transformation?

From a sermon by Charles Haddon Spurgeon entitled "Idols Abolished."
