Charles Spurgeon wrote, "I know there are some who think it necessary to their system of theology to limit the merit of the blood of Jesus; if my theological system needed such a limitation, I would cast it to the winds. I cannot, I dare not allow the thought to find a lodging in my mind, it seems so near blasphemy."
Spurgeon refused to refer to the atonement of Jesus Christ as limited in merit. To the contrary, he guarded the sufficiency of the atonement of Jesus in value and worth. Christ crucified is sufficient for all and efficient for every believer.
Spurgeon stated, "There must be sufficiency in the blood of Christ, if God had so willed it, to have saved not only this world, but all in ten thousand worlds, had they transgressed their Maker's law. Once admit infinity into the matter, and limit is out of the question. Having a Divine Person for an offering, it is not consistent to conceive of limited value; bound and measure are terms inapplicable to the Divine sacrifice."
Spurgeon found no limit with the blood of Jesus in value and worth. Yet, he knew the results of Christ crucified were sure. All who by God's grace believe on the Lord Jesus Christ shall be saved (Acts 15:11). Therein, we find definite redemption in the results. Christ did not die in vain. The sure results are found in "the church of God which He purchased with His own blood" (Acts 20:28).
