Once Dead, Now Alive

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 25, 1894

I PREACHED to you, this morning [See sermon #2046, Consolation from Resurrection], the doctrine of the resurrection of the dead and its various bearings, but unless you have experienced spiritual resurrection, you do not understand that doctrine, and you canno…

Israel’s Hope; or, the Center of the Target

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 19, 1891

WHEN he penned this psalm, the writer, David, was in deep distress, if not of circumstances, yet of conscience. He constantly mentions iniquities, and begs forgiveness. He felt like a shipwrecked mariner, carried overboard into the raging sea. Thus he reviews…

Seeing and Not Seeing, or Men as Trees Walking

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 22, 1866

OUR Savior very frequently healed the sick by a touch, for He intended to impress upon us the truth that the infirmities of fallen humanity can only be removed by contact with His own blessed humanity.

Sowing in the Wind—Reaping Under Clouds

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 10, 1892

SOW when the time comes, whatever wind blows. Reap when the times comes, whatever clouds are in the sky! There are however, qualifying proverbs which must influence our actions. We are not to discard prudence in the choice of the time for our work. “To every t…

Helps

Charles Spurgeon

IT appears, according to the apostle Paul, that according to the diversity of gifts which proceeded from the selfsame Spirit of God, those who gave assistance to the early church, did so in different ways.

A Promise for the Blind

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 8, 1909

POOR Israel, as a nation, had its ups and downs. It was sometimes in captivity and soon it experienced a deliverance. At one time, it was diminished and brought low through affliction, persecution, or sorrow. At another, it was multiplied and increased exceedi…

The Two Gatherings

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 22, 1910

JUST a few sentences must suffice concerning the first meaning of the text. I think there can be little doubt that we have here a prophecy of our Lord’s second advent and of the gathering together in one assembly of all the chosen people of God, both those who…

Songs for Desolate Hearts

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 10, 1865

IT was a great sorrow to an Eastern woman to be childless. In modern times that affliction is endured with cheerful equanimity, but in those days it was regarded as a dreadful curse, and the feelings of those afflicted by it were of the most painful kind, as w…

Conversions Encouraged

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 12, 1876

LAST Sabbath day the title of my discourse was, “Conversions Desired,” and my earnest prayer to God has been that the effect of this morning’s sermon may be conversions accomplished. I cannot be happy unless I indulge the hope that some will this morning turn…

Preparation for Heaven

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 16, 1916

HOW very confidently Paul contemplates the prospect of death! He betrays no trembling apprehensions. With the calmness and serenity, not merely of resignation and submission, but of assurance and courage, he appears joyous and gladsome, and even charmed with t…

Praying and Waiting

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 23, 1864

THE beloved apostle John here addresses himself to those who have believed in the Son of God.

The Interest of Christ and His People in Each Other

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 29, 1861

THE church says concerning her Lord, “My beloved is mine, and I am his.” No “ifs,” no “buts.” The two sentences are solemn assertions. Not, “I hope, I trust, I think,” but “My beloved is mine, and I am his.” “Yes,” but you will say, “the church must then have…

The Best Bread

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 16, 1887

YOU will observe that our Lord here speaks concerning Himself. He speaks not of His words merely, nor of His offices, nor of His work, but of Himself. “I am that bread of life.” And herein He teaches us all to fix our eyes mainly upon His blessed person, and t…

The Three Whats

Charles Spurgeon

YOU see the text begins with a personal experience within the mind and judgment—“The eyes of your understanding being enlightened.” Everything depends upon the opened eye. The scene may be fair and the light may be bright, but if the sight is gone, all is in v…

Rough, But Friendly

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 6, 1913

AN immense number of persons came down into Egypt from all parts of the world to buy corn.

The Pastor’s Joy and Confidence

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 13, 1890

THE Epistle to the Philippians is the epistle of joy. Bengel sums it up in two Latin words, which, being interpreted, signify, “I rejoice, rejoice you.” Here we come to that sweet fruit of the Spirit which we call “Joy.” The statement Paul makes about the Phil…

The Captain of Our Salvation

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 23, 1899

OBSERVE, dear friends, how glorious God is. The description given here by the apostle contains but few words, and those nearly all little ones, but how full of meaning they are. “Him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things.” Here you have God set…

The Hospital of Waiters Visited with the Gospel

Charles Spurgeon

IT was the Sabbath day! Where would Jesus spend that day and how? He would not spend it, we are quite sure, in any unhallowed manner or in any trifling sort. What would He do? He would do good, for it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day. Where would He do…

Smoking Flax

Charles Spurgeon

I BELIEVE that the first sense of these words is not the one usually given to them, nor yet the one upon which I intend to preach tonight. We read in the 12 th of Matthew that our divine Lord was assailed by the scribes and Pharisees, but He did not enter at t…

A Pressed Man Yielding to Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 25, 1900

LAST Sabbath morning [Sermon #1683, The Great Cross-Bearer, and His Followers], I spoke to you concerning one who was forced into the King’s service. That was Simon, the Cyrenian, who was compelled to bear Christ’s cross. He was not a volunteer, but a pressed…

The Blessings of Following On

Charles Spurgeon

I MUST first remove the moldy piece from the text, and that is the word “if,” which has no sort of business here whatever. You notice that the translators put it in italics, to intimate to us that it was no Word of God, but one of their own words which they th…

Good Cheer for Outcasts

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 15, 1876

DOES not this show us the great gentleness and infinite mercy of God? And as we know most of God in the person of our Lord, Jesus Christ, should it not charm us to remember that when He came on earth He did not visit kings and princes, but He came unto the hum…

The Little Dogs

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 6, 1876

I TAKE the two records of Matthew and Mark that we may have the whole matter before us. May the Holy Spirit bless our meditation.

Is It True?

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 21, 1886

DEAR friends who are not yet decided; if you would become followers of the Lord Jesus Christ it will be well for you to count the cost. It was our Lord’s custom to bid men consider what His service might involve. His frequent declaration was, “He that takes no…
