ASSUREDLY Isaiah was one of the most eloquent of preachers, and yet he could not win the ears and hearts of those to whom he spoke, for it is written, “they would not hear.” Beyond all question he was thoroughly evangelical, for, as Dr. Watts truly says, he sp…

SALVATION never shines so brightly to any man’s eyes as when it comes to himself. Then is grace illustrious indeed when we can see it working with divine power upon ourselves. To our apprehension, our own case is always the most desperate and mercy shown to us…

A CHRISTIAN brother was asked one day, “To what persuasion do you belong?” He parried the question at first, for he did not think that it was very important for him to answer it. So the inquirer asked him again, “But what is your persuasion?” “Well,” he said,…

I HOPE that many who are now present long beyond everything else to be useful to their fellow-creatures. We do not want to go to heaven alone, we are most anxious to lead others to the Savior. I remember a very remarkable telegram, which was sent from England,…

ALMOST all men have something in which to glory. Every bird has its own note of song. It is a poor heart that never rejoices. It is a dull packhorse that is altogether without bells. Men usually rejoice in something or other, and many men so rejoice in that wh…

OUR religion is not based upon opinions, but upon facts. We hear persons sometimes saying, “Those are your views, and these are ours.” Whatever your “views” may be, is a small matter, what are the facts of the case? We must, after all, if we want a firm founda…

IT is not my wont to preach what people commonly call “baptizing sermons.” It is very seldom that I even mention the subject of baptism in my preaching, for I find that many of my hearers learn the Scriptural teaching concerning it without much help from me. O…

ACCORDING to this text, the principal matter in our salvation is faith. Faith is described as “receiving” Jesus. It is the empty cup placed under the flowing stream. It is the penniless hand held out for heavenly alms. It is also described in the text as “beli…

THE apostle is explaining the reason for his preaching Christ with so much earnestness—he hadreceived divine light and he felt bound to spread it. One great motive power of a true ministry istrusteeship. The Lord has put us in trust with the gospel; He has fil…

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 25, 1869
THE whole of our life we are sowing. In activity, in suffering, in thought, in word, we are always scattering imperishable seed. Some sow amidst laughter and merriment—they sow unto the lusts of the flesh and shall of the flesh reap corruption. Theirs is easy…

WE are sure that we understand this passage, for we have our Lord Jesus Christ’s application of it to Himself—“All ye,” said He to His disciples, “shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be…

FOR several years I have thankfully received the text of the first Sabbath in the year from a venerable clergyman of a parish in the suburbs of our city. Spared by a gracious providence, my good brother has sent me with his Christian salutations these two vers…

THIS short passage is found in the midst of a mass of gold—sentences containing the richest treasures of truth. All this spiritual wealth is the heritage of the people of God—not only of His typical people to whom these words were spoken, but to His real peopl…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 2, 1870
IN the style of these apostolic words there is a positiveness most refreshing in this age of doubt. In certain circles of society it is rare nowadays to meet with anybody who believes anything. It is the philosophical, the right, the fashionable thing nowadays…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 27, 1898
ALL true religion is pre-eminently the work of God. If He should select out of His works that which He esteems most of all, He would select true religion. He regards the works of grace as being even more glorious than the works of nature, and He is therefore e…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 25, 1866
THE whole story of our Lord’s passion is exceedingly rich in meaning. One is tempted to linger over every separate sentence of the narratives given by the evangelists. It were possible to preach several series of sermons upon the whole story, and there is not…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 12, 1865
THIS is the great argument of awakened sinners when they seek mercy at God’s hands. Once they could boast of their own righteousness. They could rest upon their feelings, their resolutions, their goodness of heart, or their prayers. But now that God the Holy S…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 7, 1886
I HAVE been for a while lying outside the crowd, unable either to feed the multitude or to bring the sick to the Master. Here and there one I have helped, as opportunity has occurred, but I have been called to rest rather than to serve. Yet all the while I hav…

WHAT a wonderful conjunction of prophecy and providence! I want you to behold it, and admire it.
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 8, 1900
BEFORE I speak upon these two verses, I will read the four which precede them, that you may note the connection in which they are found. Job is in great trouble, in sore distress of soul, his heart is very heavy, and his unfriendly friends are casting salt int…

A BELIEVER in Christ is not long without finding joy. He is in the land which flows with milk and honey, and he will get a sip of sweetness very soon. Like Nicodemus, he comes to Jesus in the dark, but the sun is rising. When he casts himself at the foot of th…

THIS is a question which Job asked of his friends, who turned out to be so unfriendly. Thus he battles with those “miserable comforters” who inflamed his wounds by pouring in sour juice and vinegar instead of oil and wine. The first of them had just opened fir…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 3, 1884
WHEN the Israelites left the place of their bondage and came to the edge of the wilderness, a visible token of the Lord’s presence and leadership was granted to them. They saw high in the air a pillar, which by day might be compared to rising smoke, but at nig…
