AS soon as man had disobeyed God, he ran away from Him. Our first parents hid themselves among the trees of the garden when they heard the voice of the Lord God calling them. They did not come to Him at once, confess the wrong which they had committed, and ask…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 23, 1911
[Another sermon by Mr. Spurgeon upon the same text is #266, The Blind Beggar] THE blind man described in this narrative is a picture of what I earnestly desire that every hearer and reader of my sermons may become. In his first condition, Bartimaeus was a type…

BRETHREN, it should be much to our joy that we do not serve under the ceremonial law, nor live within the legal dispensation . The legal economy exhibited to the people a multitude of types and figures, and consequently it laid down many rules and rituals, and…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 11, 1883
PAUL makes a clean sweep of that trust in the externals of religion which is the common temptation of all time. Circumcision was a great thing with the Jew, and oftentimes he trusted in it. But Paul declares that it avails nothing. There might be others who we…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 9, 1889
THE people that came out of Egypt were an interesting company, if we think of what God had done on their behalf and of what he proposed to do for them. They had been lifted up from a state of slavery into one of freedom and they were on their way to a country…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 16, 1905
THERE are some people in the world who, the moment we begin to speak of a type, try to disparage that style of speech by calling it “spiritualizing.” They seem to be far too wise to be able to learn anything by that mode of teaching. Yet the Holy Spirit has gi…

THIS Psalm is one of the very choicest songs in the night. Midst a stream of troubled thoughts there stands a fair island of rescue and redemption which supplies standing room for wonder and worship while the music of the words, like the murmuring of a river,…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 27, 1884
THE appeal of Mordecai in his pressing time of distress was to one single person, namely, to Esther.
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 22, 1894
PAUL looks at the matter of salvation from the point of view suggested by grace. If any man might have said, “The Son of God, whom I have loved, and to whom I have given myself,” it would have been the apostle. On another occasion, speaking of the Lord, he sai…
Charles Spurgeon • Dec 24, 1871
WE have no superstitious regard for times and seasons. Certainly we do not believe in the present ecclesiastical arrangement called Christmas. First, because we do not believe in the mass at all, but abhor it, whether it is said or sung in Latin or in English.…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 29, 1862
A VAGUE notion is abroad in the world that the benefit of Christ’s passion is intended only for good people. The preaching of some ministers, and the talk of some professors, would lead the uninstructed to imagine that Christ came into the world to save the ri…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 12, 1916
DAVID in the caverns of Adullam is a type of our Lord Jesus Christ despised and rejected among the sons of men. Christ is the Lord’s anointed, but men perceive not the anointing. He is persecuted by His great enemy, the world, as David was persecuted by Saul,…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 20, 1870
THE connection of our text is very terrible. When we are reading the sixteenth verse, one seems to remember Sodom, its infamy, and the fire and brimstone that came down from heaven upon it. But here in our text we enter into Jerusalem, the holy city, whose str…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 3, 1916
HOW stern the trial, how striking the triumph, how sublime, both in action and passion, was the faith of Abraham in that terrible crisis. It pleased God to try him on a very tender point. Abraham had received a great promise, on the fulfillment of which he gre…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 20, 1910
WE note from this incident that it was a cold night in which our Redeemer agonized in the garden of Gethsemane [See sermon #2767, Jesus in Gethsemane]. A cold night, and yet He sweat! A cold night, and yet there fell from Him, not the sweat of a man who earns…
Charles Spurgeon • May 18, 1902
LAST Sabbath evening, I mentioned some of the “hard questions” which Jesus is able to answer, just as Solomon solved the riddles of the queen of Sheba [Sermon #2778, Volume 48—CONSULTING WITH JESUS]. But it appears that this queen, when she had once obtained a…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 22, 1903
THERE is a tendency, in the heart of man, to want something to look at rather than something to trust to. The children of Israel had God for their King, and a glorious King He was. Where else was there found such impartial justice, such tender compassion for t…
Charles Spurgeon • Sep 6, 1885
DAVID in his younger days had been obliged to hide himself away with his followers in the great caverns and rocks of his native land. In the cave of Adullam, by the rocks of the wild goats, he had dwelt amid the sternest surroundings of nature. No doubt he had…
Charles Spurgeon
THE text does not say, “He that winneth sovereigns is wise,” though no doubt he thinks himself wise, and perhaps, in a certain groveling sense in these days of competition, he must be so. But such wisdom is of the earth and ends with the earth. And there is an…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 16, 1913
FROM the narrative we may learn that things can never be so bad but what God can bring deliverance in His own time. The country had been parched in Palestine for three years. Travelers in the East will tell you how brown and burned that country looks at all ti…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 24, 1892
I HAVE frequently spoken to you concerning the faith of this Canaanitish woman, of the way in which Christ tried it, and of the manner in which, at length, He honored it, and granted all that the suppliant sought. The story is so full of meaning, that one migh…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 4, 1872
WE shall have this morning to repeat a truth which has sounded forth from this pulpit many hundreds of times. But we shall offer no apology for our repetitions, seeing that the truth to be preached is one which cannot too often be proclaimed.
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 21, 1889
LAST LORD’S Day we saw clearly from God’s Word that our Lord is worshipped in heaven under the character of a Lamb. Now, by a Lamb was meant sacrifice, sacrifice for the putting away of sin— according to the text, “Behold the Lamb of God, which takes away the…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 12, 1885
CONSIDER how great Melchizedek was. There is something majestic about every movement of that dimly revealed figure. His one and only appearance is thus fitly described in the Book of Genesis— “And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he…
