This sermon discusses the profound question, "What must I do to be saved?" as posed in Acts 16:30. It explores the urgency, importance, and desperation inherent in this question, emphasizing that it supersedes all other concerns. Using the backdrop of a Philippian prison guard's encounter with apostles Paul and Silas, the sermon underscores the need for personal salvation and repentance, discouraging the criticism of others' faith. It further explores how earthly misfortunes often lead people to seek God and argues against procrastination in matters of faith. The sermon concludes with a historical tale, underscoring the importance of timely salvation and God's mercy, much like a pardon arriving just before execution.
