Calling on the Name of the Lord
Romans 10:11-13
For the scripture said, Whoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.…


To call upon the name of the Lord implies —

I.  RIGHT FAITHS, to call upon Him as He is.

II.  RIGHT TRUST in Him, leaning upon Him.

III.  RIGHT DEVOTION, calling upon Him, as He has appointed.

IV.  RIGHT LIFE, ourselves who call upon Him being, or becoming, by His grace, what He wills.They call not upon the Lord, but upon some idol of their own imagining, who call upon Him as other than He has revealed Himself, or remaining themselves other than those whom He has declared that He will hear.

(E. B. Pusey, D.D.)
