Laboring and Not Fainting

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 8, 1872

THE Lord Jesus Christ never removes His eyes from His church. He notes everything that concerns her, observing not merely the life of her members but their soul’s health, and not merely their health, but the way in which they spend their spiritual strength. He…

What the Church Should Be

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 29, 1878

PAUL’S design in this epistle was to instruct young Timothy how he should behave himself in the church of God, so as to discharge his office as minister, evangelist and pastor with honor to himself and profit to the people. He reminds him that the church is th…

The Fifth Beatitude

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 19, 1909

[In the year 1873, Mr. Spurgeon delivered what he called “a series of sententious homilies” on the Beatitudes. After an introductory discourse upon the Sermon on the mount and the Beatitudes as a whole, he intended to preach upon each one separately, but eithe…

Great Joy in the City

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 18, 1894

“PHILIP went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ to them,” and the result of his preaching was that “there was great joy in that city.” He had a very speedy and very remarkable success.

Faith’s Firm Resolve

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 18, 1890

This is a psalm of David’s old age and we will carefully notice the characteristic feature of it. It is not addressed to men concerning God, but it is addressed to God Himself, for He was David’s dearest friend. Our psalms and hymns are not for man’s criticism…

The Dumb Singing

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 29, 1857

WHAT a difference divine grace makes, wherever it enters the heart! In our text, we find the blind mentioned, but they are no longer blind when once grace has touched their eyes. “Then the eyes of the blind” are “opened.” We read also of the deaf, but they are…

The Sad Wonder

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 12, 1870

THAT Jesus marveled was in itself a marvel. We never read that either science or art, nature or providence, excited His wonder. We do not find that He marveled at the grandeur of the temple, although His disciples were evidently wonder-struck, for they said, “…

A Dire Disease Strangely Cured

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 9, 1904

IT is well for the preacher, every now and then, to go back to the very beginning, and once again traverse the whole ground of the Gospel, just as the teacher does in school, when after his pupils have advanced to some of the higher branches of study, he deems…

God’s Work Upon Minister and Convert

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 6, 1884

BEHOLD an amazing sight! Saul of Tarsus at the feet of Jesus of Nazareth! Listen! The persecutor’s voice is changed into that of an inquiring disciple. He asks, “What wilt thou have me to do?” If angels sang with delight over a new-made world, their song must…

Who Are Elected?

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 9, 1865

SAMUEL was sent to Bethlehem to discover the object of God’s election. This would have been a very difficult task if the God who sent him had not accompanied him, and spoken with the sure voice of inspiration within him as soon as the chosen object stood befor…

The Mediator—Judge and Savior

Charles Spurgeon • May 30, 1880

THESE two verses are an extract from a very remarkable sermon, a sermon preached by Peter in the house of Cornelius upon the occasion of the Gentile Pentecost. I think we are entitled to call the event by that name, for then upon the Gentiles was poured out th…

Cured at Last!

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 8, 1888

THOUGH I take Luke’s statement as a text, I shall constantly refer to the version of the same story which we find in Mark 5:25 to 29.

Ingratitude of Man

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 9, 1872

I WOULD very frankly confess at the outset that I am not about to preach from the words of this text, and that I have selected it solely because it contains an epitome of man’s behavior towards the Savior. He came unto His own people, the Jews, and answered in…

Vanity Deprecated

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 7, 1907

THERE are divers kinds of vanity. In the play of the frivolous and the sport of the idle, we see but one sort of vanity—light, open, and undisguised. The cap and bells of the fool, the motley of the jester, the mirth of the world, the dance, the lyre, and the…

Christ and His Table Companions

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 27, 1908

THE outward ordinances of the Christian religion are but two, and those two are exceedingly simple, yet neither of them has escaped human alteration, and alas, much mischief has been wrought and much of precious teaching has been sacrificed by these miserable…

Silken Cords

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 13, 1906

NO man ever comes to God unless he is drawn. There is no better proof that man is totally depraved than that he needs to be effectually called. Man is so utterly “dead in trespasses and sins” that the same divine power which provided a Savior must make him wil…

Shining Christians

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 9, 1899

I BELIEVE that this text refers to the church of God. I am aware that it is considered by some to have a special reference to Israel, but I also know that “no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation,” and that this particular Scripture may b…

Backsliding Healed

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 13, 1870

WHICH rings with the more sonorous voice, the knell, “ their backsliding ,” or the marriage peal, “ I will heal ”? All through the Scripture records there is revealed a vehement contest between man’s sin and God’s grace; each of them striving to become more ab…

Holding Fast the Faith

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 5, 1888

YOUR attention will be principally asked to these words—“You hold fast My name, and have not denied My faith.” Specially note, dear friends, at the opening of this morning’s meditation, the character under which the Lord Jesus Christ presents Himself to the ch…

Reasons for Turning to the Lord

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 13, 1878

[Mr. Spurgeon was exceedingly unwell and his voice painfully weak, hence the pause in the middle of the sermon, during which the congregation sang part of a hymn to enable the preacher to gain strength enough to resume his discourse. This was the last sermon b…

The Miracles of Our Lord’s Death

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 30, 1888

OUR Lord’s death is a marvel set in a surrounding of marvels. It reminds one of a Kohinoor surrounded with a circle of gems. As the sun, in the midst of the planets which surround it, far outshines them all, so the death of Christ is more wonderful than the mi…

Coming to Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 27, 1916

IN these three words you have, first of all, a blessed person mentioned, under the pronoun “whom”—“To whom coming.” In the way of salvation we come alone to Jesus Christ. All comings to baptism, comings to confirmation, comings to sacraments, are all null and…

God’s Love to the Saints

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 26, 1905

TRUE love cannot long be dormant. It is like fire, of an active nature—it must be at work. Love longs for expression—it cannot be dumb. Command it to be without expression and you command it not to live. And true love is not satisfied with expressing itself in…
