God Beseeching Sinners by His Ministers

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 27, 1873

MAN became God’s enemy wantonly, without the slightest offense given on God’s part, but man did not make advances towards reconciliation, or express regret because peace was broken. The first overtures for peace are not made by man, the offender, but by our ag…

Preaching Christ Crucified

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 6, 1910

IN the verse preceding our text, Paul writes, “The Jews require a sign.” They said, “Moses wrought miracles; let us see miracles wrought, and then we will believe,” forgetting that all the wonders that Moses wrought were altogether eclipsed by those which Jesu…

Preparing for the Week of Prayer

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 28, 1911

I SUPPOSE that there will be very little doubt among you that the “angel” mentioned here was either our Lord Jesus Christ Himself or a special angelic messenger sent to represent Him. You remember that under the Mosaic dispensation, there was to be an altar of…

Jehovah Has Spoken: Will You Not Hear?

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 4, 1883

IN this chapter Jeremiah had proclaimed the judgment of God against His sinful people under two very striking figures. Israel had been to God what a girdle is to a man [See sermon no. 1706, The Cast-Off Girdle]. The people had been bound closely about Him in H…

Our Place—at Jesus’ Feet

Charles Spurgeon

THE Easterns pay more attention to posture than we do. They are demonstrative, and express by outward signs much which we do not express, or express less energetically. In their courts certainpositions must be taken up by courtiers. Oriental monarchs are appro…

Holy Longings

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 29, 1890

, 133. LAST Lord’s-Day we spoke about being in the fear of God all the day long and I am afraid some thought, “The pastor has set a very high standard before us—not too high, but still far above what we have been able to reach.” I know that many desires after…

Intended for Reading on Lord’s-Day, March 4, 1894

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 4, 1894

WE are all agreed upon this one point, that the Lord’s supper is an emblem of the death of Jesus Christ, and of the way by which we receive benefit from Him. The bread sets forth His broken body, and the cup His shed blood, these, separated from each other, sh…

“Return Unto Thy Rest”

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 22, 1901

You who have not believed in our Lord Jesus Christ have no rest to which you can return, for you have never found any. May God grant to you the grace to come unto Christ that you may find rest unto your souls! But we who believe in Him do enter into rest. We a…

A Prospect of Revival

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 1, 1916

THE pedigree of God’s chosen nation Israel may be traced back to one man and one woman—to Abraham and Sarah. Both of them were well stricken in years when the Lord called them, yet in the fulfillment of His promise, He built up of their seed a great nation, wh…

The Door

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 10, 1901

How very condescendingly the Lord Jesus Christ sets Himself forth! The noblest figures of speech are not too lofty to describe His merits. If we could speak with the tongues of poets and of angels, we could not adequately represent His loveliness, and though t…

A Test for True Seekers

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 17, 1898

THIS prophecy of Jeremiah was concerning the destruction of Babylon. Israel and Judah had been carried away into captivity by the domineering power, and the captives lived far away in Babylon, and wept when they remembered Zion. The prophet foretells that, in…

Sabbath-Work

Charles Spurgeon • May 1, 1898

OUR Divine Master healed men every day of the week, from the first day even to the close of the seventh day, He went about doing good, and healing all manner of diseases. The healing virtue did not flow from Him occasionally, but perpetually. It was not like t…

Putting the Hand Upon the Head of the Sacrifice

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 16, 1884

NO doubt there are clear distinctions in the teaching of the burnt offering, the meat offering, the peace offering, and the sin offering. In those various sacrifices we have views of our Lord’s atoning work taken from different standpoints. On another occasion…

God’s Will About the Future

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 7, 1892

[“It is remarkable that the sermon selected for this week should be so peculiarly suitable for the present trying time. It ought to be read with special solemnity. Oh, that it may be the means of leading many to make the great preparation for the future which…

“The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved”

Charles Spurgeon • May 23, 1880

OUR Lord loved all His disciples—“Having loved His own which were in the world, He loved them unto the end.” He said to all the apostles, “I call you not servants; for the servant knows not what his Lord does: but I have called you friends; for all things that…

Driving the Vultures Away From the Sacrifice

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 27, 1887

ABRAHAM, when he was childless, received the amazing promise that his seed should be as the stars of heaven for number. This he believed, and his faith in Jehovah “was counted unto him for righteousness.” Surely there is more righteousness in trusting the Lord…

The Power of Christ’s Presence

Charles Spurgeon • May 27, 1909

I AM going to speak, on this occasion, to my brethren and sisters who are workers for Christ. When our Lord met His apostles by the lake and provided for them that memorable meal, He did not think it out of place to say to Peter, “Feed my lambs; feed my sheep.…

Believers Free From the Dominion of Sin

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 21, 1878

OUR constant hearers will remember that a Sabbath or so ago we spoke upon, “Submit yourselves unto God” [#1408, The Reason Why Many Cannot Find Peace ]. It is both the way to peace and the way of peace to submit one’s whole self unto God. Nor is it an irksome…

The Song of a City and the Pearl of Peace

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 4, 1885

THIS is no dry, didactic statement, but a verse from a song. We are among the poets of revelation, who did not compose ballads for the passing hour, but made sonnets for the people of God to sing inlater days. I quote to you a stanza from “the song of a city.”…

The Shining of the Face of Moses

Charles Spurgeon • May 18, 1890

A FAST of forty days does not improve the appearance of a man’s countenance, he looks starved, wrinkled, old, haggard. Moses had fasted forty days twice at least, and according to many competent authorities the tenth chapter of Deuteronomy seems to imply that…

The Everlasting Counsellor

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 14, 1907

THIS question is addressed to the church of God, for in the context it is written, “And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.…

The Gospel in Power

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 15, 1917

A WORKMAN likes to see that he has been doing something. It is very dispiriting if he has spent much toil, and can see no result. God’s workmen by faith would continue still to labor, even if they saw nothing come of it, but it is much more comforting, much mo…

The Child of Light Walking in Darkness

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 25, 1887

SEE how the Lord inquires for His people? In every congregation He asks this question, “Who is among you that fears the Lord?” These are the wheat upon the threshing floor. As to the thoughtless, “What is the chaff to the wheat? says the Lord.” The Lord’s hear…
