His Name Brings Salvation

Joel 2:32
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.

This passage was selected by the apostle at Pentecost to be set in its place as a sort of morning star of gospel times. When the Spirit was poured out upon the servants and the handmaids, and sons and daughters began to prophesy, it was clear that the wondrous time had come, which had been foretold so long before. Then Peter, as he preached his memorable sermon, told the people, “Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved”… —saved from guilt, the penalty, the power of sin, saved from the wrath to come. These gospel times are still the happy days in which “whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”… The dispensation of immediate acceptance proclaimed at Pentecost has never ceased: its fulness of blessing has grown rather than diminished. The sacred promise stands in all its certainty, fulness, and freeness: it has lost none of all its breadth and length: “Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Charles H. Spurgeon, Twelve Sermons on Prayer, Grand Rapids: Baker, 1971

There has never been a more pressing time for this message to be proclaimed.

“Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Countless numbers of souls are waiting to hear these words; oh, that it would be proclaimed from the house tops.

“Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

WHOSOEVER!
