NEVER verse in the Scripture has puzzled me more than this to find out its meaning and its connection. In reading it over hastily, at first sight, it may appear very easy. But if you search into it very carefully, you will find you can with difficulty string t…

*[The reader is referred to #214 and #215, volume 4, in which sermons severally entitled “Wonderful,” “Counsellor,” will be found.] OTHER translations of this divine title have been proposed by several very eminent and able scholars. Not that they have any of…

It is at once a doctrine of Scripture and of common sense, that whatever God does in time He predestined to do in eternity. Some men find fault with divine predestination and challenge the justice of eternal decrees. Now, if they will please to remember that p…

MY text, furnishing the motto for the congregation for the New Year is, as you know, always supplied to me by a most venerable clergyman of the Church of England, who has ever showed to me the most constant and affectionate regard. I have no doubt that the pre…

THIS passage is a mine of riches. I can anticipate the difficulty in preaching and the regret in concluding we shall experience this evening because we are not able to dig out all the gold which lies in this precious vein. We lack the power to grasp and the ti…

I THINK there is room for very great doubt whether our Savior intended the prayer, of which our text forms a part, to be used in the manner in which it is commonly employed among professing Christians. It is the custom of many persons to repeat it as their mor…

IN most large houses we shall find humanity in all its stages. We shall see the infant in its cradle, children laughing in their play, young men working with vigor, and the old man resting in peace. In such a mansion, if a careful Martha be in charge, provisio…
Charles Spurgeon • May 31, 1863
GOD’S promises are not exhausted by one fulfillment. They are manifold mercies, so that after you have opened one fold, and found out one signification, you may unfurl them still more, and find another which shall be equally true, and then another, and another…

THE provisions of the Gospel of Christ may well be compared to a supper , provided as they were, in the evening of the world—“in these last days.” The description, “ a great supper ,” is well borne out if we consider the greatness of the provision; how much of…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 3, 1860
I WOULD have you look on this text as being a summary of all the things which we have preached to you these years. It has been my endeavor, constantly and continually, to maintain that salvation is of God’s good will, and not of man’s free will, that man is no…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 22, 1855
THIS is a very solemn indictment which the apostle Paul here speaks against the carnal mind. He declares it to be enmity against God. When we consider what man once was, only second to the angels, the companion of God, who walked with Him in the garden of Eden…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 24, 1864
MY attention has been specially directed to this passage by the fact that it has been quoted against me by most of the authors of those sermons and letters which are, by a stretch of imagination, called “replies” to my sermon upon “Baptismal Regeneration.” Rep…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 14, 1858
YOU have often smiled at the ignorance of heathens who bow themselves before gods of wood and stone. You have quoted the words of Scripture and you have said, “Eyes have they, but they see not; ears have they, but they hear not.” You have therefore argued that…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 17, 1859
THESE words we shall take for a slogan, rather than a text in the ordinary acceptation of that term. I shall not this morning attempt to explain the context. It was the utterance of Lot when he pleaded for the salvation of Zoar. But I shall take it altogether…

ISRAEL had suffered a long night of affliction. Dense was the darkness while they abode in Egypt, and cheerless was the glimmering twilight of that wilderness which was covered with their graves.
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 25, 1863
WE had a joyful meeting last Wednesday evening. As a church, we all met together as a loving family, and it was a sight of the most encouraging kind to see a great host, like the host of God, of brothers and sisters, all dwelling together in unity. That solemn…
Charles Spurgeon • May 6, 1860
DAVID here describes a very common experience among convicted sinners. He was subjected to extreme terrors and pangs of conscience. These terrors were continual, they scared him at night with visions, they terrified him all day with dark and gloomy forebodings…
Charles Spurgeon • May 4, 1856
THE householder says, “Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own?” and even so does the God of heaven and earth ask this question of you this morning, “Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own?” There is no attribute of God more co…
Charles Spurgeon • Sep 11, 1859
WE know that death is not the end of our being. By a confident faith we are persuaded that better things await us in another state. We are speeding onwards through our brief life like an arrow shot from a bow, and we feel that we shall not drop down at the end…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 16, 1864
THIS vision has been used, from the time of Jerome onwards, as a description of the resurrection , and certainly it may be so accommodated with much effect. What a vision of the great day the words picture before the mind’s eye! The great army of the quick, wh…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 21, 1858
SAMSON is, in many respects, one of the most remarkable men whose history is recorded in the pages of inspiration. He enjoyed a singular privilege only accorded to one other person in the Old Testament. His birth was foretold to his parents by an angel. Isaac…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 28, 1855
“MUSIC has charms.” I am sure sacred music has, for I have felt something of its charms whilst we have been singing that glorious hymn just now. There is a potency in harmony. There is a magic power in melody, which either melts the soul to pity or lifts it up…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 3, 1864
YOU remember the historical narrative. Absalom had fled from Jerusalem under fear of David’s anger, he was after a time permitted to return, but he was not admitted into the presence of the king.
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 25, 1856
GOD’S most holy Word was principally written to inform us of the way to heaven, and to guide us in our path through this world, to the realms of eternal life and light. But as if to teach us that God is not careless concerning our doings in the present scene,…
