Charles Spurgeon Commentary Luke 7:50

"And he said unto the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace." — Luke 7:50 (ASV)

And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

"Go home, good woman, do not stop here and be bothered by these people." And often, that is the best advice that we can give to new converts. There is a theological controversy raging, and the jargon of the different schools of thought is being used by one another; but, good soul, you go home. You need not trouble about controversial matters. Your sins are forgiven you; your faith has saved you; if you know that, you know as much as you need to know for now. Go home, and be quiet and happy: "Go in peace."

And he said to the woman, Your faith has saved you; go in peace.

It was best for her to be out of the way of all controversy; she would honour him most by going home, and there sweetly singing to his praise, and drinking deep draughts of his love. If any of you converts are meeting with those who cavil at you, do not stop where they are, but go about your business with these sweet words of your Master ringing in your ears: Your faith has saved you; go in peace.
