Charles Spurgeon • Mar 7, 1858
“COMING to Christ” is a very common phrase in Holy Scripture. It is used to express those acts of the soul wherein, leaving at once our self-righteousness and our sins, we fly unto the Lord Jesus Christ, and receive His righteousness to be our covering, and Hi…

IN the Christian pilgrimage it is well for the most part to be looking forward. Whether it be for hope, for joy, for consolation, or for the inspiring of our love, the future after all must be the grand object of the eye of faith. Looking into the future we se…

THE Jewish nation had arrogant ideas of themselves. When they sinned against God, they supposed that on account of the superior sanctity of their forefathers, or by reason of some special sanctity in themselves, they would be delivered—sin as they pleased. In…

OBSERVE the title whereby he addressed the church, “Brethren.” It was the Gospel which taught Paul how to say brother . If he had not been a Christian, his Jewish dignity would never have condescended to call a Roman—“brother,” for a Jew sneered at the Gentile…

THESE words, as they stand in the book of Jeremiah, were probably meant to set forth the sin of Israel. The prophet’s heart is very full of sadness, he can hear the shrieks and cries of the people in the streets of Jerusalem. They are moaning for sorrow, becau…

IT is a rough name that, “Caleb.” Most translators say it signifies “a dog.” But what matters a man’s name? Possibly the man himself was somewhat rough—many of the heartiest of men are so. As the unpolished oyster yet bears within itself the priceless pearl, s…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 17, 1864
THE truth here asserted is indisputable. Even heathens have taken this for their motto, and emblazoned it upon their standards of war. “God is for us!” has been the war cry of many a warrior as he has dashed to the fight. However out of place it was in such as…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 13, 1858
IT is quite certain that there are immense benefits attending our present mode of burial in extra mural cemeteries. It was high time that the dead should be removed from the midst of the living—that we should not worship in the midst of corpses and sit in the…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 29, 1856
IT is usually understood that the quotation our Savior here refers to is to be found in the thirty-fifth Psalm, at the nineteenth verse, where David says, speaking of himself immediately and of the Savior prophetically, “Let not them who are mine enemies rejoi…

I HAVE read in your hearing the story of the preaching of Paul and Barnabas in the town of Lystra.
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 24, 1859
IT is not a comfortable state to be at enmity with God, and the sinner knows this. Although he perseveres in his rebellion against the Most High and turns not at the rebuke of the Almighty, but still goes on in his iniquity, desperately seeking his own destruc…

FANCY, not fact! a dream! a delusion! That would be the world’s estimate of the most blessed Christian experience. “Fanaticism” is the name by which they call it. But call it by whatever name you please, the grace that interposes and rescues a sinner from the…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 21, 1858
IT is remarkable that when we find an exhortation given to God’s people in one part of Holy Scripture, we almost invariably find the very thing which they are exhorted to do guaranteed to them and provided for them in some other part of the same blessed volume…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 3, 1855
THE chapter (Ezekiel 34) that I read at the commencement of the service is a prophetical one. And I take it, it has relation not to the condition of the Jews during the captivity and their subsequent happiness when they should return to their land, but to a st…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 27, 1856
THE ancient church, in the foresight of her mighty increase in these latter days, lifts up her hands in astonishment, and having been so used to see the Lord’s grace confined to a small nation, she exclaims in amazement, “Who are these that fly as a cloud, and…
Charles Spurgeon • Apr 22, 1860
I AM not about to enter upon any argument in proof of the doctrine of election tonight. That I have done at other times, and am prepared to do so yet again. I purpose rather to speak of some of the practical effects which result from this article of the believ…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 4, 1857
THIS, of course, refers to our blessed Lord Jesus Christ, who is described as “coming from Edom with dyed garments from Bozrah.” And who, when questioned who He is, replies, “I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” It will be well, then, at the commence…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 16, 1863
WE must all be gathered in due course. When time shall have ripened the fruit, it must hang no longer upon the tree, but be gathered into the basket. When the summer’s sun has perfectly matured the corn, the sickle must be brought forth and the harvest must be…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 4, 1855
BABBLING fame always loves to talk of one man or another. Some there be whose glory it trumpets forth and whose honor it extols above the heavens. Some are her favorites, and their names are carved on marble, and heard in every land and every clime. Fame is no…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 16, 1857
HOW ominously these words follow each other in the text—“live,” “die.” There is but a comma between them and surely as it is in the words, so is it in reality. How brief the distance between life and death! In fact there is none. Life is but death’s vestibule…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 5, 1857
YES, we are just so foolish. Folly is bound up not only in the heart of a child, but in the heart of even a child of God. And though the rod may be said to bring folly out of a child, it will take many a repetition of the rod of affliction upon the shoulders o…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 30, 1856
NOTWITHSTANDING our firm belief that you are in the main well-instructed in the doctrines of the everlasting Gospel, we are continually reminded in our conversation with young converts how absolutely necessary it is to repeat our former lessons, and repeatedly…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 27, 1864
YOU will understand that the apostle is arguing with professedly Christian people, who were dubious about the resurrection of the dead. He is not saying that all men are now miserable if there is no hope of the world to come, for such an assertion would be unt…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 7, 1855
IT has been said by someone that “the proper study of mankind is man.” I will not oppose the idea, but I believe it is equally true that the proper study of God’s elect is God—the proper study of a Christian is the Godhead. The highest science, the loftiest sp…
