The Blood-Shedding

This sermon explains that the only way sins can be forgiven is through the shedding of Jesus Christ's blood when he died on the cross, and no amount of good deeds, tears, or promises can earn forgiveness any other way. Spurgeon describes in vivid detail how Jesus suffered and bled in the Garden of Gethsemane and on the cross, emphasizing that this sacrifice was necessary to pay for everyone's sins. He urges listeners who feel lost and guilty to simply believe in Jesus and trust that his death was specifically for them, promising that anyone who admits they are a sinner can be forgiven instantly through faith in Christ's sacrifice.A sermon delivered by Charles Spurgeon on February 22, 1857.
