Spurgeon: Some of God’s people, only hope that they are saved. Such can scarcely sing that their cup runs over! Others conceive, that they are saved for the present, but are not thereby saved eternally. Oh, but those who have come to know that God never plays fast and loose with us? That if he has saved us once, our salvation is secured beyond all risk? That the love of God is everlasting love, and cannot be removed, and that the blood of Jesus Christ does not in part redeem, but effectually redeems? Those I say, who have come to understand the fulness, the infinity, the immutability, the eternity, of the mercies of God in Christ Jesus? It is they who can rejoice in an overflowing cup, for the lines have fallen unto them in pleasant places, and they have a goodly heritage. The lot of the saved is a lot to be envied, theirs is a right royal heritage. (Edited excerpts from) “The Overflowing Cup” by CH Spurgeon, 1869 “My cup runneth over.” Psalm 23:5
