Charles Spurgeon • May 13, 1860
THERE are many choice gifts comprehended in the covenant of grace, but the first and richest of them are these twain—the gift of Jesus Christ for us and the gift of the Holy Ghost to us. The first of these I trust we are not likely to undervalue. We delight to…

LIBERTY is the birthright of every man. He may be born a pauper, he may be a foundling, his parentage may be altogether unknown, but liberty is his inalienable birthright. Black may be his skin, he may live uneducated and untaught, he may be poor as poverty it…

YOU will remember that when the children of Israel were settled in Canaan, God ordained that they should set apart certain cities to be called the Cities of Refuge, that to these the manslayer might flee for security. If he killed another unawares and had no m…

THE true heading of all the books of Moses is to be found in the words of Jesus, “Moses wrote of me.” Take the Lord Jesus Christ with you as a key, and however difficult the riddles of Leviticus or Numbers may at first sight appear, there is not one enigma in…
Charles Spurgeon • May 8, 1859
THE miracles of Christ are remarkable for one fact, namely that they are, none of them, unnecessary.
Charles Spurgeon • May 18, 1856
HOW noble a title. So sublime, suggestive, and overpowering. “MY ROCK.” It is a figure so divine, that to God alone shall it ever be applied.
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 12, 1860
WHAT we know is as nothing when compared with what we know not. The sea of wisdom has cast up a shell or two upon our shore, but its vast depths have never known the footstep of the searcher. Even in natural things, we know but the surface of matters. He that…
Charles Spurgeon • Sep 20, 1863
THE old law shines in terrible glory with its Ten Commandments. There are some who love that law so much that they cannot pass over a Sabbath without its being read in their hearing, accompanied by the mournful petition, “Lord, have mercy upon us, and incline…
Charles Spurgeon • May 1, 1859
WE shall not take these words in their literal application, as coming from the lips of Saul, when he gave David his elder daughter, Marab, to wife; but we shall accommodate the passage and use it as an exhortation given to the church of Christ and to every sol…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 8, 1863
They were not sufficiently advanced in grace to be admitted to behold the mysteries of “the agony.” Occupied with the Passover feast at their own houses, they represent the many who live upon the letter, weakness in grace which effectually shuts in the deeper…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 6, 1856
SIX years ago, today, as near as possible at this very hour of the day, I was “in the gall of bitterness and in the bonds of iniquity,” but had yet, by divine grace, been led to feel the bitterness of that bondage, and to cry out by reason of the soreness of i…

THE figure of “a bottle in the smoke” is essentially oriental. We must therefore go to the East for its explanation. This we will supply to our hearers and readers in the words of the author of the Pictorial Bible, “This doubtless refers to a leathern bottle o…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 25, 1857
JOHN, the forerunner of Christ, had some followers who continued with him after Christ had come in the flesh and openly manifested Himself among the people. These disciples were in doubt as to whether Jesus was the Messiah or no. I believe that John himself ha…

FOR the last three or four Lord’s day evenings, I have been trying to fish with a net of small meshes.
Charles Spurgeon • May 3, 1863
THE apostle Paul had, by singular providences, been delivered from imminent peril in Asia. During the great riot at Ephesus, when Demetrius and his fellow shrine-makers raised a great tumult against him, because they saw that their craft was in danger, Paul’s…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 18, 1860
MAN is unwilling to consider the subject of death. The shroud, the mattock and the grave, he labors to keep continually out of sight. He would live here always if he could, and since he cannot, he at least will put away every emblem of death as far as possible…
Charles Spurgeon • Dec 28, 1856
THE scene of this marvelous and magnificent vision is laid upon Mount Sion, by which we are to understand, not Mount Sion upon earth, but Mount Sion which is above, “Jerusalem, the mother of us all.” To the Hebrew mind, Mount Sion was a type of heaven, and ver…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 11, 1858
wonder when I relate a portion of one day’s story. I was engaged to preach last Wednesday at Halifax, where there was a heavy snow storm. Preparations had been made for a congregation of eight thousand persons and a huge wooden structure had been erected. I co…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 17, 1861
IT is not often that a man may safely speak about his own humility. Humble men are mostly conscious of great pride, while those who are boastful of humility have nothing but false pretense, and really lack and want it. I question whether any of us are at all j…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 23, 1862
WHAT may be the particular meaning of the prophecy concerning the witnesses clothed in sackcloth, their death, their resurrection, and their subsequent entrance into heaven, I am unable to guess, nor am I clear that anybody else has hit upon it. Although I do…
Charles Spurgeon • May 4, 1858
WE have heard many times in our lives that we are all stewards to Almighty God. We hold it as a solemn truth of our religion that the rich man is responsible for the use which he makes of his wealth.
Charles Spurgeon • May 15, 1859
WHEN John the Baptist preached in the wilderness of Judea, the throng of people who pressed around him became extremely violent to get near enough to hear his voice. Often when our Savior preached did the same scene occur. We find that the multitudes were imme…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 8, 1855
THE Christian is always pleased and delighted when he can see Christ in the Scriptures. If he can but detect the footstep of his Lord and discover that the sacred writers are making some reference to Him, however indistinct or dark, he will rejoice there at. F…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 8, 1856
SALVATION is a doctrine peculiar to revelation. Revelation affords us a complete history of it, but nowhere else can we find any trace thereof. God has written many books, but only one book has had for its aim the teaching of the ways of mercy. He has written…
