NO doubt, in the first place, David was speaking of the benefits of a wise and just ruler over men. In the East, where rulers are despotic, they can very soon lay on such heavy taxation and make such oppressive laws that the people are grievously impoverished.…

JUDE says, “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was necessary for me to write unto you.” The apostle did not write for writing’s sake, and in this he sets us an example—we are not to speak for speaking’s sake, nor e…

THIS is a kind of preface to the story of the foot-washing, and a very wonderful preface it is, when coupled with the third and fourth verses, upon which I commented. “Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 20, 1873
THIS prophecy may relate to the Jews literally, and it is by their learned doctors referred to the days of the Messiah. We believe, also, that it refers to the days of the Messiah, and we look for times when again the Holy Land shall be fully inhabited and the…

THE greatest light may enter into the darkest places. We may find the choicest flowers blooming where we least expected them. Here was a Gentile, a Roman, a soldier—a soldier clothed with absolute power—and yet a tender master, a considerate citizen, a lover o…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 8, 1874
THE spiritual blessings promised and provided in the Gospel comprise all that man can need. They are described in the chapter before us as “ water ,” refreshing and cleansing—the “water of life,” whereof if a man drink he shall never thirst again.
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 16, 1868
THE Lord divided the Jordan that His people might pass through dry-shod. This miracle greatly dispirited the Canaanites, and so prepared the way for an easy triumph for the invading Israelites. You would have naturally expected that the Lord would have bidden…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 22, 1868
THIS is the woman who has been confounded with Mary Magdalene. How the error originated it would not be easy to imagine, but error it certainly is. There is not the slightest shadow of evidence that this woman, who was a sinner, had even the remotest connectio…

[Mr. Spurgeon had commenced to revise the manuscript of this sermon in readiness for publication. Other sermons by him on various parts of this parable are as follows—#2768, Debtors and Debtors, #1739, Bankrupt Debtors Discharged, and #2127, Love’s Competition…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 11, 1917
DAVID knew where to run to for shelter in his hour of difficulty. Many were there that opposed him, he had been much slandered, his course was rough. So, after spreading his case before the Lord, as Hezekiah did Rabshakeh’s blasphemous letter, he turns to the…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 23, 1890
PETER was of Bethsaida but he had a house at Capernaum. Is it not highly probable that he had moved there to be near our Lord’s headquarters, to hear everything that He said, to see all His miracles, and to yield Him constant attendance and service? I think it…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 11, 1882
WE shall consider this passage in its context, for I have no doubt that the miracle at Marah was intended to be a very instructive illustration of the glorious title which is here claimed by the covenant God of Israel—“I am JEHOVAH-Rophi, the Lord that heals y…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 22, 1912
TAKEN strictly, according to its original connection, the text plainly and powerfully reminds us that our providential mercies ought never to be forgotten, and more especially those remarkable mercies, which concern the safety of our life in times of great per…
Charles Spurgeon • Dec 29, 1904
SOMETIMES, dear friends, we should take a review of life. There are occasions when men feel bound to do so and the retrospect may be full of profit to themselves. I find that many look back in hours of trouble. A dark cloud brings them to a pause. In prosperit…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 8, 1900
PETER was somewhat hardly pressed. He felt that he was pushed into a corner, and compelled to look into his own heart, and divulge its innermost secret. To be asked once, in the presence of his brethren, whether he loved his Lord more than they did, had a tend…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 5, 1874
ALMOST every phase of spiritual life is depicted in the Psalms, but we shall not always find in them the interpretation of those deep exercises of soul with which the believer grows familiar. We must look to the New Testament for full discourses upon the indwe…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 16, 1898
THIS message is not addressed to strangers far away, but to “brethren.” Paul wrote it to the Hebrews, who were his brethren according to the flesh, it was kind of him to call them by that name. He also writes it to all of us who are believers in Christ, and we…
Charles Spurgeon • Dec 9, 1900
WE will first consider the question of John the Baptist, “When he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?” I have no doubt that the Pharisees an…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 4, 1869
WHEN a man is sick, everybody knows what is good for him. They recommend remedies by the score—salts from the earth, herbs of the field, drugs from the east, minerals from the rock, extracts, compounds, simples, cordials, decoctions, quintessences, and I know…

“THESE are ancient things.” Most men hunger after the latest news, let us on this occasion go back upon the earliest records, and think of the aged past, before man was made. It does us good to look back upon the past of God’s dealings with His creatures, here…

THAT disciple whom Jesus loved is not at all backward to record that Jesus loved Lazarus, too.
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 2, 1896
WHEN the human mind is on the stretch of emotion, whether it is under the influence of grief or joy, it often thinks that the whole world is in sympathy with itself. It seems to wrap the mantle of the universe round about its spiritual nature as a garment. If…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 9, 1878
FAITH may be well described as taking hold upon divine instruction. God has condescended to teach us, and it is ours to hear with attention and receive His words. And while we are hearing, faith comes, even that faith which saves the soul. To take “fast hold”…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 5, 1900
THE prophet, no doubt, is here primarily referring to the heathen, he accounts for the fact of their gross stupidity, in bowing down to worship blocks of wood and stone, by asserting that their deceived hearts had turned them aside so that they never sought to…
