Charles Spurgeon • Aug 4, 1867
JOB was well-nigh driven to desperation by the fearful torment of his bodily pains, by the exasperating remarks of his friends, and the cutting suggestion of his wife. It is no wonder if he became somewhat impatient. Never were words of complaint more excusabl…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 26, 1885
I WAS very greatly surprised the other day, in looking over the list of texts from which I have preached, to find that I have no record of ever having spoken from this verse. This is all the more singular, because I can truly say that it might be put in the fo…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 3, 1901
PETER is here speaking of the risen Christ, whom God had raised up, “having loosed the pains of death.” So it is clear that, whatever those pains were, our blessed Lord Jesus Christ felt them — He felt them much more than His followers do, for in His death-ago…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 11, 1868
THIS appears to be the doctrine of the entire psalm, and the verse which follows, “Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous,” is intended to be the practical inference drawn from the whole of it. God would have His people believe that better times are in store for th…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 6, 1867
THESE are the words of Jesus. Unto you that believe He is precious and every word that He speaks is precious for His sake. You will be sure, then, to give every syllable its weight and to let each word fall upon your soul as coming directly from His lips. Thes…

DAVID was overwhelmed with the mercy of God. Nathan’s message was too much for him. He felt emotions in his bosom which he could not express. Like a wise man, he went at once, while under the impulse of gratitude, into the place of nearness to God. It was not…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 20, 1864
THE angelic messengers of mercy were not only earnest to bring Lot out of the city, but in their great kindness they reminded him of an important matter which, in the alarm of the tumult without, and in the surprise of their fearful tidings, he might possibly…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 8, 1906
HOW changeable is the creature! In the verse preceding our text, we find the spouse in a happy, healthy, heavenly frame of mind, for her Beloved was with her, and she was in the enjoyment of the closest communion with him. We find him saying, “I am come into m…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 28, 1907
IT was a proof of great tenderness, on God’s part, to think of His sinful creature, man, at all. When the created one had willfully set himself in opposition to his Creator, that Creator might at once have destroyed him, or have left him to himself, to work ou…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 21, 1898
THIS was very plain speaking on the part of the Lord Jesus Christ. He could not only read the thoughts of these Jews, but He could also tell the source of them. He not only knew their feelings towards Himself, even before they expressed them, but He also knew…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 21, 1870
WHO is the speaker that gives utterance to these marvelous words? In the first instance they must be understood to proceed from our Lord Jesus Christ. By the Spirit of prophecy in the Old Testament they were spoken of Him and by the Spirit of interpretation in…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 30, 1884
OUR Father’s will, shall certainly be done, for the Lord “does according to His will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth.” Let us adoringly consent that it shall be so, desiring no alteration therein. That “will” may cost us dearly, y…
Charles Spurgeon • Dec 31, 1871
LAST Sabbath day, in the morning, I spoke of the birth of our Savior as being full of joy to the people of God, and indeed, to all nations. We then looked at the joy from a distance. We will now in contemplation draw nearer to it, and perhaps as we consider it…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 4, 1912
IN the discussion between Job and his three friends Elihu was present, but though by far the wisest man he remained quiet. Sometimes a still tongue proves a wise head. In our text he gives his reason for refraining from speech. He felt inclined to deliver his…
Charles Spurgeon • May 27, 1900
JOB’S misery was extreme, and it seemed as if he could never forget it. He never did forget the fact of it, but he did forget the pain of it. That he had been utterly miserable would always remain recorded upon the tablets of his memory, but the wretchedness i…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 21, 1900
THE apostle Peter wrote his first epistle to a persecuted people, many of whom were in great heaviness through manifold trials. The sufferings of the early Christians are something terrible even to think upon, the world has scarcely ever beheld more relentless…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 1, 1874
THE peculiar circumstances in which we are now placed as a congregation demand of me that my discourses should be principally directed to the unconverted, that the awakened may be decided, that those may be aroused who as yet remain unmoved, and that a desire…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 1, 1888
FESTUS is giving to King Agrippa a brief account of the matter between Paul and the Jews. It may not be a very accurate account, for Festus did not profess to understand the business. He was a Roman governor newly come to Judea, he had no acquaintance whatever…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 11, 1906
THESE words were spoken in a very graceless age, when religion was peculiarly distasteful to men, when they scoffed at God’s altar and said of His service, “What a weariness it is!” and scornfully asked, “What profit is it that we have kept his ordinance?” Yet…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 30, 1873
IN every work which we undertake, it is most important that we should act upon right principles, for if we are misled upon essential points, our efforts will be wasted since success cannot possibly be the result. A man may study the stars as long as he pleases…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 16, 1862
EVERY Sunday we are insisting upon it that both the law and the Gospel have a voice to universal manhood, the law in its condemnation of every subject under its sway, and the Gospel in its gracious invitation and command to every creature under heaven. Yet, at…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 5, 1885
LAST Sabbath day I tried to show the right way of hearing the Word of God. We spoke of how to behave before the sermon, at the sermon, and after the sermon. May God grant that the word which I then spoke may continue in your mind, and bring forth good fruit! A…

THE Lord refines His people, but He exercises great discrimination as to the means by which He does so. A silver furnace is one of the very best for the removal of dross and would seem to be well adapted for refining the most precious things, but it is not cho…
Charles Spurgeon
THESE ancient words, so simple, yet so sweet, fascinate us with a potent hallowed charm. They ring out their melody like a familiar air. The language of a heart instinct with kindness, inspired with faith, and inspirited with the enthusiasm of a hope so much d…
