*The above sermon is the one described in C. H. Spurgeon’s Autobiography, Vol. 1, chapter thirty-two, where the beloved preacher gives a graphic account of a certain Sabbath evening when he delivered an extempore discourse from a text which the Holy Spirit viv…

IT appears from this closing remark of Moses, that there were men in his time who thought religion to be vain, although, under the system which then existed, there were many plain proofs of its usefulness, for they who served God in those days prospered, and n…

MY anxious, prayerful desire this morning is that some who have been in the condition described in the text may come out of it into full redemption. They have been too long in prison, and now the silver trumpet sounds—liberty to the captives. Jesus has come in…

THE Savior, when He departed from this world, provided for all the wants of His people, not so much by giving them divers benefits, as by promising them the presence of a gracious Person who should supply them all that their spiritual needs might demand. I tru…

VERY much of interesting truth clusters around the sin offering. The type is well worthy of the most careful consideration, and I regret that we shall not have time this morning to enter into all its details.

ON Sabbath mornings, lately, we have been meditating upon the sorrows of our Lord Jesus Christ.

IT may be that there are saints who are always at their best and are happy enough never to lose the light of their Father’s countenance. I am not sure that there are such persons, for those believers with whom I have been most intimate have had a varied experi…

THERE can be no comparison between a soaring seraph and a crawling worm. Christian men ought so to live that it were idle to speak of a comparison between them and the men of the world. It should not be a comparison but a contrast. No scale of degrees should b…

THE winds were howling, the waters were roaring, and the disciples thought that the little ship must surely be engulfed in the raging sea, so they awakened their Master from His sorely needed sleep, and cried to Him, “Lord, save us; we perish.” Note well the f…

“THE thief cometh not but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” False teachers, whatever their professions, seriously injure and imperil the souls of men, and in the end cause their destruction. Their selfish ends can only be answered by the ruin of thei…

“HOWBEIT.” There was a qualification to the pardon granted to David. There is no need for me to enter into any of the details of his enormous sin. To make any excuse for it would to be become a partner in it. It was without excuse, and if David himself were wi…

THERE is a great deal said, a great deal written, a great deal of zeal on the one side, and of anger on the other, expended upon the externals of religion. Some think that they should be very fine, not to say gaudy, very impressive, not to say imposing. They l…

MEN have lived who have pleased God—Enoch was one of them but he was not the only one. In all ages certain persons have been well-pleasing to God, and their walk in life has been such as was Hisdelight. It should be the aim of every one of us to please God; th…

I WANTED to speak tonight to believers who have lost the joyful presence of their Lord and who are saying, “Oh, that I knew where I might find him!” But when I thought of that matter, I said to myself, Many will be in the congregation who have never yet found…

FIRST, let me say that the Lord’s supper is nothing to us unless we partake of it as spiritual persons in a spiritual way. We must understand what we are doing in coming to the communion table. The mere mechanical celebration will be vanity. It may even be a s…

SIN is quite sure to cause sorrow, and the longer the sorrow is delayed, the heavier it will be when it comes. This ship may be long at sea, but it will come home at last with a heavy cargo. There was never a man who broke the law of God who had not in the end…

WE have all heard of Utopia, that imaginary land where all things are such as one might desire. A man who should conceive a spiritual Utopia might well be supposed to say, “What a delightful thing it would be, if a man could, in this life, be completely saved!…

NOTICE in the prayer of our divine Lord, what honor He always puts upon God the Father. He ascribes to God everything—the taking the disciples out of the world, or the keeping them from the evil in the world. Let us never neglect to look for God’s hand in all…

THIS verse portrays what a minister should be, and the picture is a burden upon my heart and conscience, for it shows that the true preacher, or prophet, or man of God, should be one whom God sends early to do His work. It is, as it were, as though his Master…

I PUT these two texts together for this reason. Those of you who are acquainted with the Revised Version know that the twenty-first verse in the seventeenth chapter of Matthew is left out. There seems to be little doubt that it was inserted in certain copies b…

SOMETIMES it is necessary for a speaker to refer to himself, and he may feel it needful to do so in a way peculiar to the occasion. When Elihu addressed himself to Job and the three wise men, he commended himself to them saying, “I am full of matter, the spiri…

WE have in the verses preceding the text a mention of the first church meeting of which I remember to have found mention in the New Testament. The Savior declares of His assembled people, “Verily I say unto you, whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound…

IN this discourse, it will be my endeavor to assign some reasons why God causes His people to see iniquity in themselves and in others

JUDE gives a very terrible picture of what will happen in the last days; he describes apostates, and paints them in the blackest colors, and he then informs us that there will come in the last time mockers, and with them separatists and sensualists, all of who…
