MAN is very loath to think ill of himself. The most of mankind are very prone to indulge in apologies for sin. They say, “If we had lived in better times we had been better men. If we had been born into this world under happier auspices we should have been hol…

I SUPPOSE that the message delivered by God’s servants to the people must always be called “the burden of the LORD.” When the old prophets came forth from their Master, they had such dooms, and threatenings, and lamentations, and woe to preach that their count…

WORKS of art require some education in the beholder before they can be thoroughly appreciated.
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 9, 1857
OUR Savior very often preached upon the moral precepts of the law. Many of the sermons of Christ—and what sermons shall compare with them—have not what is now currently called “the Gospel” in them at all. Our Savior did not, every time He stood up to preach, d…

CALVIN translates this verse, “My soul, be thou silent before God.” Rest calm and undisturbed.
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 3, 1858
THE heroes of our Savior’s stories are most of them selected to illustrate traits of character entirely dissimilar to their general reputation. What would you think of a moral writer of our own day, should he endeavor in a work of fiction, to set before us the…

SURELY if any man had a right to say, I am not vile, it was Job. According to the testimony of God Himself, he was “a perfect and an upright man, one that feared God and eschewed evil.” Yet we find even this eminent saint, when by his nearness to God he had re…

NO. 59 HELD AT NEW PARK STREET CHAPEL, SOUTHWARK BY THE REV. C. H. SPURGEON ON TUESDAY NIGHT, DECEMBER 31, 1855 IF it be inquired why I held a Watch-night, let the answer be—because I hoped that the Lord would own the service, and thus souls might be saved. I…

THERE lived in the little village of Bethany a very happy family. There was neither father nor mother in it, the household consisted of the unmarried brother Eleazar, or Lazarus, and his sisters, Martha and Mary, who dwelt together in unity so good and pleasan…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 30, 1859
I HAVE selected this sentence as the text, although I shall not strictly adhere to it. What was to be seen on Christ’s hands and feet? We are taught that the prints of the nails were visible and that in His side there was still the gash of the spear. For did H…

IN endeavoring to justify the ways of God, Job’s three friends came to the harsh conclusion that he would not have been so severely afflicted if he had not been such a great sinner. Among other accusations against the afflicted patriarch, Eliphaz the Temanite…

NATHAN had been giving to David, on God’s behalf, sundry exceedingly great and precious promises. David expresses his gratitude to God for having so promised and he says, “Now, O LORD God, the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning h…

MY brethren, I would have you attentively observe the singular clearness, power, and quickness of the Savior’s mind in the last agonies of death. When pains and groans attend the last hour, they frequently have the effect of discomposing the mind, so that it i…

THE story of Noah’s preservation in the ark is a suggestive representation of salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ. It is, we think, especially intended to depict that part of our salvation which lies in the washing of regeneration. In the same way as baptism is…

THERE must be new songs on new occasions of triumph. It would have been absurd for Miriam with her timbrel to conduct the music of the daughters of Israel to some old sonnet that they had learned in Egypt. Nay, an old song could not have spoken out the feeling…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 15, 1863
IT is certainly a very delightful thing to mark the hand of God in the lives of ancient saints. How profitable an occupation to observe God’s goodness in delivering David out of the jaws of the lion and the paws of the bear. His mercy in passing by the transgr…

THE Bible is a book of the revelation of God. The God after whom the heathen blindly searched, and for whom reason gropes in darkness, is here plainly revealed to us in the pages of divine authorship, so that he who is willing to understand as much of Godhead…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 31, 1861
THE people of God in the wilderness were led instrumentally by the wisdom of Moses and his father-in-law Hobab, but really their guiding star was the visible presence of God in the pillar of cloud by day and pillar of fire by night. I suppose that the possessi…

GOD had made a positive promise to Moses that for the space of a whole month he would feed the vast host in the wilderness with flesh. Moses, being overtaken by a fit of unbelief, looks to the outward means—calculates his commissariat—and is at a loss to know…

WHAT myriads of eyes are casting their glances at the sun! What multitudes of men lift up their eyes and behold the starry orbs of heaven! They are continually watched by thousands—but there is one great transaction in the world’s history which every day comma…

YESTERDAY was to me a day of deep solemnity. A pressure rested on my mind throughout the whole of it, which I could not by any possibility remove, for at every hour I remembered that during that day one of the most fallen of my fellow creatures was launched in…

OUR Savior, in this chapter, administered a rebuke to two sorts of people. He reproved those who hear the Gospel, but who are not brought to humiliation and repentance. He rebuked them by the example of the Ninevites, who, having but one short and terrible war…

[DEARLY BELOVED, It has pleased the Lord by a painful illness to interrupt, for a little while my usual labors. As I was unable to preach last Lord’s day, accept this week the issue of an old sermon. Though it has been buried in my publishers’ warehouse for tw…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 10, 1861
THIS notable text shall teach us two lessons this morning. Its first utterance shall be concerning providence and it’s second, concerning the life of grace in the heart . Our blessed Lord once used this text with regard to providence and therefore we shall be…
