PRAYER FOR THE CHURCH (BY SPURGEON)
Permit us, gracious Father, to come very near to you. May the drawings of the Divine Spirit now sweetly attract us to God; and, most blessed Jesus, fulfill your office as Mediator, bring us now near to God by your precious blood. Oh, for the power to pray rightly this morning! May our pastors, your servants, have it largely, that they may be able to lead all these people, by the power of the Spirit, close to the mercy-seat.
Amen.

WEEKEND LONG READ (SERMON BY SPURGEON)
Free Pardon
We have offended God, and the same offended God forgives us. We have violated his law, and yet the lawgiver himself pardons us. We have insulted his majesty, and yet the King himself deigns to say, “I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions.”

Whether you’re in college or out, reject the idea that committing to a local church is something only to be done when you’re older, more “established,” or in the life stage of having a family.
