Means for Restoring the Banished

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 11, 1870

THE woman of Tekoah in arguing with David for the recall of his son Absalom, argued with great shrewdness. After craftily entrapping the king by her parable, she then pleaded with him in persuasive terms, the cleverness of which we must admire, though the end…

The Sweet and the Sweetener

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 10, 1895

THOSE of you who were present this morning know that, with all my heart, and mind, and soul, and strength, I pleaded with men that they would come to Christ. [Sermon #1951, The Pleading of the Last Messenger] If ever in my life I felt that I had spent every pa…

A Description of Young Men in Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 8, 1883

WHEN I preached a short time ago upon John’s message to the “little children” [Sermon #1711— A Sermon to the Lord’s Little Children ], I explained why it was that he first said, “I write,” and then, “I have written.” He is writing, his whole heart is in it, an…

God’s Goodness Leading to Repentance

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 12, 1903

GOD is often exceedingly good to those who are utterly unworthy of such treatment. “He maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good,” indeed, sometimes the evil seem to have more of the sunshine than the good have. David said, “I have seen the wicked in…

Christ’s Plea for Ignorant Sinners

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 3, 1892

WHAT tenderness we have here, what self-forgetfulness, what almighty love! Jesus did not say to those who crucified Him, “Begone!” One such word, and they must have all fled. When they came to take Him in the garden, they went backward, and fell to the ground…

Peace—How Gained, How Broken

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 27, 1889

“I WILL hear what God the Lord will speak.” There were voices and voices; there were voices of the past concerning God’s wondrous mercy to His people: “You have been favorable unto Your land; You have brought back the captivity of Jacob”; but mingled with thes…

Defiled and Defiling

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 13, 1896

THE prophet Haggai very wisely drew out from the priests a definite answer to certain questions which he put to them. Then, upon their authority, he could say to the people, “This is what your own priests say, and this is what you yourselves, believe.” This wa…

The Plague of the Heart

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 10, 1879

You all know that the temple at Jerusalem was the one place of sacrifice throughout all the holy land, for thus had the Lord spoken, “Whatsoever man there be of the house of Israel, or of the strangers which sojourn among you, that offers a burnt offering or s…

“For Ever with the Lord”

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 16, 1877

WE know that these words are full of consolation, for the apostle says in the next verse, “Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” The very words it appears were dictated by the Holy Spirit the Comforter, to be repeated by the saints to each other wit…

Jesus Angry with Hard Hearts

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 28, 1886

MY text will really consist of these words, “He looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts.” It is the divine Lord, the pitiful Jesus, the meek and lowly in heart, who is here described as being angry. Where else do w…

The Perpetuity of the Law of God

Charles Spurgeon • May 21, 1882

IT has been said that he who understands the two covenants is a theologian, and this is, no doubt, true. I may also say that the man who knows the relative positions of the law and of the gospel has the keys of the situation in the matter of doctrine. The rela…

Blinded by Satan

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 16, 1893

THE practice of blinding men is a horrible process, too horrible for us to say another word about it, but there is also a spiritual blindness which comes upon some men. These are, to begin with, unbelievers. The god of this world does not blind believers—but h…

God’s Advocates Breaking Silence

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 17, 1878

ELIHU was sufficiently severe with Job, but as this arose from his honest conviction that Job had spoken amiss, we cannot blame him. The style of his address is in some points, highly commendable.

Saints Guarded From Stumbling

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 19, 1893

THE point and pith of what I may have to say will lie in the alteration of this text caused by the revision of the New Testament. The Revised Version runs thus, “Now unto him that is able to guard you from stumbling.” I am not going to speak at any length upon…

Faith and Repentance Inseparable

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 13, 1862

OUR Lord Jesus Christ commences His ministry by announcing its leading commands. He comes up from the wilderness newly anointed, like the bridegroom from his chamber, His love notes are repentance and faith. He comes forth fully prepared for His office, having…

Interrogation and Exclamation

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 1, 1901

MEN think very lightly of sin unless it brings them under the eye of the law of the land. They smile at it, as though it were a trifle, but God thinks not as they do. He calls sin by very black names. In this chapter, from which our text is taken, the Lord use…

Forgiveness Made Easy

Charles Spurgeon

THE heathen moralists, when they wished to teach virtue, could not point to the example of their gods, for, according to their mythologists, the gods were a compound of every imaginable, and I had almost said, unimaginable vice. Many of the classic deities sur…

Death, a Sleep

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 30, 1908

[On January 31, 1892, the beloved preacher, “after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep.” That verse was the text of the sermon (#2243) published on the day of his funeral, to which Mrs. Spurgeon gave the title, “His Own Funeral Ser…

Household Salvation

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 5, 1871

IT sometimes happens that a good man has to go alone to heaven. God’s election has separated him from the midst of an ungodly family, and notwithstanding his example, and his prayers, and his admonitions, they still remain unconverted, and he himself, a solita…

Constancy and Inconstancy—a Contrast

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 24, 1869

THESE two verses very fitly describe in very similar imagery the opposite characters of the true and persevering believer, and the fictitious and the transient professor. There are many things in this world which are very much alike, and yet are totally dissim…

The Charge of the Angel

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 8, 1888

THE second persecution of the church, in which all the apostles were put into the common prison, was mainly brought about by the sect of the Sadducees. These, as you know, were the Broad School, the liberals, the advanced thinkers, the modern-thought people of…

Early and Late, or Horae Gratiae

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 10, 1865

, 5-6 WE have frequently observed that we do not think it right to neglect the connection of Scripture. We have no right to tear passages of Scripture from their context and make them to mean what they were not intended to teach. And therefore I have in the re…

Good Cheer From Grace Received

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 27, 1906

[Other sermons by Mr. Spurgeon, upon this miracle, are as follows #1809, May I?; #2018, Cured at Last and #2019, She Was Not Hid] THE words of good cheer which our Savior spoke to this woman were not given to her while she was coming to Him, for that would hav…
