Charles Spurgeon Commentary Acts 13:21-23

"And afterward they asked for a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for the space of forty years. And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; to whom also he bare witness and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My heart, who shall do all My will. Of this man`s seed hath God according to promise brought unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus;" — Acts 13:21-23 (ASV)

And God gave to them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years. And when he had removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, which shall fulfill all my will.

Of this man's seed has God according to his promise raised to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

No matter where the apostle begins, he comes to Jesus Christ before long. No matter what the preacher's text may be, he must never close a sermon without having set forth the claims of Jesus.

This should be the invariable rule of our ministry, that Christ is the top and bottom, the sum and substance of all our preaching. Paul could truly say, We preach Christ crucified.
