✝️Ser llamado cristiano es un privilegio… y una responsabilidad| Samuel Davis

Today we meditate on the solemn and powerful sermon “The Sacred Importance of the Christian Name” by Samuel Davies (translated into Spanish by Audio Lectura Cristiana), one of the most influential preachers of the Great Awakening. In this sermon based on Acts 11:26—“and the disciples were first called Christians at Antioch”—Davies expounds on the spiritual depth of the name “Christian,” showing that it is not simply a religious label, a cultural tradition, or an outward profession, but a holy identity that implies union with Christ, obedience, transformation, and separation from the world. With serious, reverent, and penetrating preaching, Samuel Davies confronts religious hypocrisy and calls the listener to examine whether they truly belong to Christ or merely bear His name superficially. This sermon remains profoundly relevant in a time when many use the name Christian while living far from the Lord. An ideal reading for meditation, devotional time, spiritual reflection, and Christian edification.
