I HAVE preached a good many times from this text [The following sermons by Mr. Spurgeon upon this passage have been previously published #60, Sovereignty and Salvation, #2805, Life for a Look. The fullest account of his conversion is in his autobiography, publ…

IT is very beautiful to see how the saints of old were accustomed to find comfort in their God. When they came into sore straits, when troubles multiplied, when helpers failed, when earthly comforts were removed, they were accustomed to go to the Lord and to t…

PETER was on dangerous ground. When his Master was being buffeted, he was trying to make himself comfortable. We read of the high priest’s servants, that they warmed themselves, and Peter stood with them and warmed himself; he stood with them, and they were ro…

WE are all of us apt to fall into a wrong state of heart, not because we are unconverted, nor yet because we are false to Christ, but simply because of our natural infirmities. So long as we are in this body, exposed to trial and temptation, we shall be prone…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 27, 1869
THIS is not the prayer of an unconverted man or the cry of an awakened sinner foolishly expecting to find salvation in good works. It is the prayer of one who is saved and who knows it. The verse preceding the text shows this, for he asks to be mercifully deal…

THE circumstances under which our Lord uttered these words are instructive. He saw the people thronging Him whenever He stood up to preach, and He perceived that the regular instructors of the people, those who thought that they were commissioned to teach the…

THE disciples had been fishing all night. They had now given over fishing, they had left their boats, and were mending their nets. A stranger appears. They had seen Him, probably, once before, and they remembered enough of Him to command respect. Besides, the…
Charles Spurgeon • Aug 29, 1907
WE have all abundant reason to look at home and see about our own sins. Nothing can be more absurd than for a man to take his hoe and weed everybody else’s garden—and leave all the thorns and thistles to flourish on his own plot. The old parable of the man who…
Charles Spurgeon • Feb 3, 1867
IT was God’s purpose that Abraham should be a surpassingly excellent example of the power of faith. He was to be “the father of the faithful,” the mirror, pattern, and paragon of faith. He was ordained to be the supreme believer of the patriarchal age, the ser…

AT the time when Paul wrote these words he was giving judgment as to whether it was expedient for Christians in those days to marry. The question was whether they were likely to be better Christians married or unmarried. This was a question of much delicacy, a…

THE spouse sings, “Until the day break, and the shadows flee away,” so the beloved of the Lord may be in the dark. It may be night with her who has a place in the heart of the Well-beloved. A child of God, who is a child of light, may be for a while in darknes…

OF all the men in the ship, Jonah was the person who ought most to have been awake, but nevertheless, he was not only asleep, but fast asleep. All the creaking of the cordage, the dashing of the waves, the howling of the winds, the straining of the timbers, an…

WHAT a sudden change from the sound of the timbrel to the voice of murmuring! You saw the maidens dancing three days ago and you little dreamed that they would make part of yonder clamorous throng who surround the servant of God, and cry, “What shall we drink?…
Charles Spurgeon • Jul 29, 1866
IF we would influence thoughtful persons it must be by solid arguments. Shallow minds may be wrought upon by mere warmth of emotion and force of excitement, but the more valuable part of the community must be dealt with in quite another manner.
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 6, 1870
THE epistles of John possess and combine certain qualities which seem at the first blush to stand opposite as the poles to one another. Their style of expression is simple, chaste, and unadorned. Short words are used, for the most part words of one syllable. S…
Charles Spurgeon • Jun 25, 1908
OBJECTS often influence us out of proportion to their value because of their nearness. For instance, the moon is a very small insignificant body compared with the sun, yet it has far more influence over the tides and many other matters in the world than the su…
Charles Spurgeon • Jan 25, 1912
BEFORE speaking upon the main subject of the text, I cannot help drawing your attention to those two words “the children.” Hear that sweet expression again, for it is one of the choicest descriptions of the saints, “the children.” “Ye are all the children of G…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 1, 1891
THE law of God is perfect. You cannot add anything to it, nor take anything from it, withoutspoiling it. If you will read the ten commands, and understand them in their spiritual meaning, you will find that they are far-reaching, and that they deal with every…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 24, 1907
THIS is a very singular expression which is used here concerning Jotham who is one of the kings of Judah who are commended as having done that which was right in the sight of the Lord. All of them had their faults, yet they were the best monarchs that sat upon…
Charles Spurgeon • Mar 5, 1871
FOR the preacher of the Gospel to make full proof of his ministry will be a task requiring much divine teaching. Besides much care in the manner and spirit, he will need guidance as to his matter. One point of difficulty will be to preach the whole truth in fa…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 19, 1916
OUR Lord did not speak in this way at the beginning of His ministry. He did not thus bear witness to Himself, saying, “I am the light of the world.” But it was befitting on this occasion, when the people before Him had already received sufficient evidence from…
Charles Spurgeon • Nov 25, 1915
ARE YOU prepared, like Zaccheus, to give the Lord Jesus Christ a glad and grateful welcome? If we would obtain the full benefit of His devoted life, His atoning death, and His triumphant resurrection, we must receive Him into our hearts by simple faith and ent…
Charles Spurgeon • Oct 29, 1899
JOHN was the herald of Christ. He came to bear witness to Him and to prepare the way for Him. In olden times when kings traveled, they were accustomed to send heralds before them to announce their coming, and to prepare the way for them. And I have read that o…
Charles Spurgeon • Sep 9, 1915
I REMEMBER once reading a chapter of a book which commenced with this heading, “The Inside of the World.” The book, of course, was occupied very much with geology and to speculations about the interior of the globe. Tonight I want you to consider not the insid…
