[Two more Sermons by C. H. Spurgeon on the latter part of the text are #1604 and #1605, Heart Disease Curable and Jesus Knew What He Would Do. As this Sermon is so short, there is included with it an address given by Mr. Spurgeon at a prayer meeting for Sabbat…

POOR Job! who could have been brought lower than he? He had lost his possessions, his children, his health—he was covered with sore boils—and he was aggravated by the unkind speeches of his friends. In his deep distress he turns to God, and finding no other pl…

WE long sometimes, to behold Christ in His glory. Certainly, it is one of our brightest hopes that we shall see Him as He is. Every true believer can say with Job, “I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: and t…

, 22 IT is, indeed, a horrible thing that a saved soul should ever wander from its Savior. After having had so much of past sin fully and freely forgiven, and after having made to rejoice in perfect pardon, can it ever turn away from those dear pierced hands w…

TIMOTHY was to divide rightly the Word of God. Every Christian minister must do if he would make full proof of his ministry, and if he would be clear of the blood of his hearers at the last great day.

BEING asked to address myself upon this occasion principally to young people, I bethought me that running was the young man’s pace, the motion of the strong man who in his earliest days rejoices in the race. It is not often that running is taken up by those wh…

NOAH knew that God would in due time let him out of the ark. He was quite sure that the Lord had not put him into the ark to make a great coffin of it, that he and all those living creatures that went in with him should perish there, and because he believed in…

NO sooner does the spouse say, “Let my Beloved come into His garden,” than her Lord answers, “I am come into My garden.” “Before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” When we desire our Lord Jesus to come to us, He has alread…

IT is a grand thing to see a man thoroughly possessed with one master passion. Such a man is sure to be strong and if the master principle is excellent, he is sure to be excellent, too. The man of one object is a man indeed. Lives with many aims are like water…

THAT our Lord was the true Messiah of God was proved by His answering to all those prophecies which described the promised messenger of the covenant. His miracles also proved that God was with Him, and from their character they marked Him out as the ordained d…

THE text does not strike you as difficult, but it is exceedingly perplexing to the interpreter. I was looking at one very old commentator who is a great favorite of mine and I noticed that he said that there were 250 different meanings given by expositors to t…

IT is a very comforting thing to be able to see the work of God in our own hearts. We can clearly enough perceive the effects of the fall, the workings of our inward corruption are always sufficiently perceptible. We have not to search long for the foul handiw…

THIS interesting law, which in its letter was binding on the Jewish people, in its spirit furnishes an admirable rule for us upon whom the ends of the world are come.

WORLDLY men think very little of God. They live at a distance from Him, they have no communion with Him, like the fool, they have said in their heart, “No God,” and they try to realize in their lives their heart’s desire. Very different is it with the true bel…

PAUL was very anxious about Timothy, his own son in the faith. He loved him greatly, and he had much confidence in him, but still he felt that the work of preaching the gospel was such a responsible undertaking, that he could not be too prayerful for him, nor…

THE promises of this verse will be exceedingly sweet to those who feel their personal need of them.

EVERYTHING about a true Christian is marvelous. He is a marvel to himself, and a marvel to all who are round about him. Mere professors—men-made Christians—people who have made themselves Christians by their own free will apart from the Spirit of God, have not…

[Mr. Spurgeon preached many times upon these and the preceding verses.

VERY simple words, but very full of meaning; I think I might say of this sentence what the poet says of prayer—it is “the simplest form of speech that infant lips can try”—and yet it is one of the “most sublime strains that reach the majesty on high.” Take a l…

JOHN tells us that our Savior went forth bearing His cross (John 19:17). We are much indebted to John for inserting that fact. The other evangelists mention Simon the Cyrenian as bearing the cross of Christ, but John, who often fills up gaps which are left by…

I MUST take your minds back to the scene in the midst of which Christ uttered these memorable words. Christ had been upon the mountaintop, transfigured in the presence of His three disciples. During His absence, the disciples remaining had been put to a nonplu…

MEN naturally mind the things of the flesh. This is as sad as if a seraph should rake upon a dunghill.

JEREMIAH was describing the havoc of war, a war which was devastating his country, and bringing untold miseries upon the people. He says of it, “My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart maketh a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because…

THE proper study of the Christian is Christ. Next to that subject is the church. And though I would by no means ever urge you so to think of the church as for a moment to put her in comparison with her Lord, yet think of her in relation to Him. You will not di…
