God never makes pointless and empty promises. If he has promised that he would put his Spirit within us, it must be because it it necessary that the Holy Spirit be so given, and work in our hearts. And that is Spurgeon’s simple proposition: “that the work of the Holy Spirit is absolutely necessary to us, if we would be saved.” He proves this by five strands of evidence, concerning the nature of fallen man, the inadequacy of the appointed means, the need for the acts of the Father and the Son to be brought to bear on our hearts, the experience of a true Christian, and the dependence of a believer on the Spirit for every acceptable work. His closing question brings it all to bear: do you have this Spirit at work in your heart?
