The sermon by C. H. Spurgeon centers on the theological concept of the Covenant of Grace, emphasizing its scriptural and historical significance. Spurgeon articulates that this covenant, established in eternity by the triune God, outlines the divine plan for the salvation of the elect, as affirmed in Scripture references like Hebrews 13:20 and Romans 5. He argues that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit each play distinct roles in this covenant, pledging to bring about redemption, reconciliation, and eternal security for those chosen by God. The practical significance of this doctrine lies in its assurance of salvation, emphasizing that Christ’s completed work ensures that all believers will ultimately be brought to glory, encouraging a deep sense of gratitude and security in the believer's heart.
“I cannot tell it to you in the glorious celestial tongue in which it was written.”
“I will intercede for them at your right hand. I will make myself responsible for every one of them, that not one of those whom you have given me shall ever be lost.”

“Can you conceive of the idea, that before all things God thought of you, that when as yet he had not made his mountains, He hath thought of you, you, a poor puny worm.”
