Expected Proof of Professed Love

Charles Spurgeon

IN every believer’s heart there is love to God. He cannot else be a child of God. In every Christian’s soul there is love to Jesus Christ. How could he be a Christian otherwise? As a consequence of this, in every Christian’s bosom there is a love to the brothe…

Satan, Self, Sin, and the Savior

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 13, 1912

I THINK the text suggests to us something about Satan , and something about self, and also something about sin and the Savior .

The Singing Pilgrim

Charles Spurgeon

THE one hundred and nineteenth Psalm is said by many to consist of detached sentences, and to be rather a casket of gold rings than a chain of united golden links, yet the position of this verse is somewhat remarkable, for the verse before it runs thus—“Horror…

“Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled”

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 23, 1883

WE may well feel glad that God’s people, whose lives are recorded in the Old and New Testaments, were men of like passions with ourselves. I have known many a poor sinner pluck up hope as he has observed the sins and struggles of those who were saved by grace,…

“Tempted of the Devil”

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 19, 1906

WHAT a terrible incident! Well may our hearts be moved with fear, and our blood run chill, as we read it. Our adversary the devil goes about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. We are taught by our Lord Jesus to pray, “Lead us not into temptation,…

Noli Me Tangere

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 20, 1898

I COMMENCE my discourse by remarking that it was very wonderful that our Lord Jesus Christ, after His resurrection, should give so early and so clear a manifestation of Himself to Mary Magdalene.

Christ with the Keys of Death and Hell

Charles Spurgeon

THEN hell and death, terrible powers as they are, are not left to riot without government. Death is a land of darkness, as darkness itself, without any order, yet a sovereign eye surveys it and a Master hand holds its key. Hell also is a horrible region, where…

Songs of Deliverance

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 28, 1867

DEBORAH sang concerning the overthrow of Israel’s enemies, and the deliverance vouchsafed to the tribes. We have a far richer theme for music. We have been delivered from worse enemies and saved by a greater salvation. Let our gratitude be deeper. Let our song…

The Perfuming of the Heart

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 6, 1868

THE apostle sets before us a ladder like to that which Jacob saw, the foot whereof resteth upon the earth, but the top ascendeth to heaven. Tribulation is the foot, but we mount as we see that it worketh patience. And we climb again, for patience worketh exper…

Achsah’s Asking, a Pattern of Prayer

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 11, 1893

IN domestic life we often meet with pictures of life in the house of God. I am sure that we are allowed to find them there, for our Savior said, “If ye, then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father…

The Second Time

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 11, 1908

[Two other sermons by Mr. Spurgeon upon this incident, based upon Genesis 45:1-5, are as follows— #449, Joseph and His Brethren, and #2516, Jesus and His Brethren.] THIS did not happen on the first occasion when they went down into Egypt. Joseph knew them then…

“Is the Spirit of the Lord Straitened?”

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 23, 1891

THERE may be some who think they can convert the world by philosophy; that they can renew the heart by eloquence; or that, by some witchcraft of ceremonies, they can regenerate the soul; but we depend wholly and simply and alone on the Spirit of God. He alone…

No Quarter

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 30, 1872

ELIJAH may be called the iron prophet. He was a man stern and brave, who flinched not to deliver his Master’s message at all hazards. It was meet that such a man should be raised up just at that time, for the Sidonian queen, Jezebel, was a woman of imperious s…

Encouragements to Prayer

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 30, 1894

THE preceding verse bids us turn away from any strange God: “There shall no strange god be in you; neither shall you worship any strange god.” Idolatry is the natural sin of man, it covers a very large surface of the realm of sin, and it is always cropping up…

“Trust in the Living God”

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 30, 1905

IF we are inclined to grieve because everything around us changes, our consolation will be found in turning to our unchanging God. If we lament the ills of mortality, it will be wise for us to turn to Him “who only hath immortality.” If our earthly joys fade a…

Witnessing at the Cross

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 17, 1913

THE dying thief was certainly a very great wonder of grace. He has generally been looked upon from one point of view only—as a sinner called at the eleventh hour and therefore an instance of special mercy because he was so near to die. Enough has been made of…

Self-Destroyed, Yet Saved

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 11, 1895

IT would be a very important subject for our meditation if we kept to the text and thought upon its great truth—that the ruin of man is altogether of himself and the salvation of man is altogether of God.

Witnessing Better Than Knowing the Future

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 15, 1893

THESE are among the last words of our Lord. We greatly prize the last words of good men. Let us set high store by these later words of our ascending Lord. It is very curious to my mind that Jesus should make mention of John the Baptist and of John’s baptism in…

A Warning Against Hardness of Heart

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 19, 1865

THE children of Israel, in their coming out of Egypt and in their forty years’ sojourn in the wilderness, represented the visible church of the living God. Not the secret and elect body of the redeemed, but the professing company of the outward church. They we…

Precepts and Promises

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 10, 1904

I HAVE already said, in expounding the chapter from which my text is taken, that the sight of these Greeks, who desired to see Jesus, seems to have very greatly affected our Savior’s mind. He had not had much to do with Gentiles, for as far as His personal min…

Christ’s Crowning Glory

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 24, 1904

I FEEL quite sure that David here sings first concerning himself, and then concerning the far greater King, “great David’s greater Son,” the Lord Jesus Christ, but I shall apply the text entirely to our blessed Redeemer, and surely, the psalmist’s language is…

Four Contrasts

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 19, 1897

; 22-25 BELOVED friends, there are many lights in which we can see sin. And our perception of sin very much depends upon the light in which we look at it. Sin is very terrible by the blaze of Sinai, when the mountain of law and terrors is altogether on a smoke…

The Way

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 24, 1870

THE most precious things lie in the smallest compass. Diamonds have much value in little space.

“Ever This Our War Cry—Victory, Victory!”

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 7, 1911

[Another sermon by Mr. Spurgeon upon the same text is #2070, Christ’s Connection with sinners, the Source of His glory] OUR great concern is concerning Christ. “For him shall constant prayer be made.” It does not much matter what becomes of us, the common sold…
