The Single-Handed Conquest

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 24, 1898

IT is said of some stupendous works of architecture that although you see them every day, you are struck with wonder and admiration every time you behold them, and that although you should live close to them, and have your eyes perpetually fixed upon them, yet…

“At Your Word”

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 16, 1882

HOW very much may simple obedience partake of the sublime! Peter went to take up the net, and let it down into the sea, and he said as naturally as possible, “At Your word I will let down the net.” But he was then and there appealing to one of the grandest pri…

The Believer’s Glad Prospects

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 10, 1912

WITHOUT a sentence of introduction, I invite you, beloved, to see herein, I. A BLESSED SEASON HERE ANTICIPATED!—A time when the day shall break and the shadows shall flee away. It is not every man who can count upon such a time as that, for to some there is no…

The Scarlet Line in the Window

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 28, 1909

EVERY little incident in a remarkable conversion like that of the harlot Rahab is worthy of notice.

The Bird Escaped From the Snare

Charles Spurgeon

THIS text describes a soul-matter. The Psalmist is not speaking of a temporal deliverance, although even in that sense an escape from death would be a theme worthy of his sweetest song. He says, “Our soul is escaped as a bird out of the snare of the fowlers,”…

Sanctified Sorrow

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 3, 1914

WHO can doubt that this promise belongs to the Gentile church, since it has been so richly fulfilled in her history? For many an age the light did not shine upon heathen lands. One spot alone upon all the earth received the genial beams of the Sun of Righteous…

The Three Witnesses

Charles Spurgeon

CHRISTIANITY puts forth very lofty claims. She claims to be the true faith, and the only true one.

My Own Personal Holdfast

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 10, 1889

OBSERVE that the prophet has no sort of doubt. He insinuates no “if” or “an” or “but” or “perhaps,” but he says it straight out as a fact of which he is infallibly convinced—“My God will hear me.” What a blessed thing it is that the child of God knows and feel…

The Two Yokes

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 14, 1872

ALL through the book of Jeremiah you will observe that the prophet taught the people not only by words, but by symbols. At one time he took his mantle and hid it in the earth till it was soiled and worn, and then taught them something by wearing it. At another…

The Search for Faith

Charles Spurgeon • May 15, 1887

IT is absolutely certain that God will hear the prayers of His people. From beneath the altar souls cry unto Him day and night to vindicate the cause of Christ, the cause of truth and righteousness, and to cast down His adversary; these shall be answered speed…

Very Singular

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 5, 1906

AHITHOPHEL was a man of keen perception, and those who consulted him followed his advice with as much confidence as if he had been an oracle from heaven. He was a great master of diplomacy, versed in the arts of cunning—far-seeing, cautious, deep. He was for y…

The Blessed Guest Detained

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 23, 1882

WHAT a blessed walk was that from Jerusalem to Emmaus! Were they not highly favored men to have such a companion as the Lord Jesus, to hear Him converse upon such a subject, and to feel their hearts burning within them with so divine a flame? Brethren, these a…

Mistaken Notions About Repentance

Charles Spurgeon • Sep 8, 1901

WE noticed, in our reading, in what a kingly style the Lord speaks all through this chapter. He does not say “ if ” or “ but ” but He says, “ I will ” and “ you shall ,” and this teaches us that God is omnipotent even in the regions of free agency. It would be…

Hosanna!

Charles Spurgeon • Mar 22, 1891

AFTER the miracle of the raising of Lazarus, a great fame went abroad concerning our Lord. He rested still at Bethany, and the people came up to the feast in great number went out—an easy walk from Jerusalem to Bethany—to see Jesus, and to see Lazarus, who had…

Joy, Joy for Ever

Charles Spurgeon • May 25, 1890

“THE LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.” There is an ancient difference which He has made in His eternal purpose, and this is seen in every item of the covenant of grace. “The LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself,” but it…

The Heart Full and the Mouth Closed

Charles Spurgeon

A VERY extraordinary chapter this sixteenth of Ezekiel! A minister could scarcely read it in public, he certainly would not like to explain its metaphors to a general audience, nor are we called upon to do so. To read it in private is another thing, and to hav…

Nathanael—or, the Man Needed for the Day

Charles Spurgeon • Feb 3, 1889

THIS morning we had a “behold”—a behold about a new convert. “Behold, he prays!” It seemed to me most suitable to occupy the evening with another “behold”—a behold about another new convert who is just having his eyes opened to see the deity of the Lord Jesus…

The Best Strengthening Medicine

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 21, 1891

THOSE who out of weakness were made strong are written among the heroes of faith, and are by no means the least of them. Believers “quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong.” Who shall tell which of the thr…

“The Ark of His Covenant”

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 18, 1887

I SHALL take the passage quite by itself. I do not fully understand its connection, whether it relates to that which goes before or to that which comes afterwards, and happily, it is not necessary for us to know this, for the passage stands complete in itself…

Waking to See Christ’s Glory

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 21, 1900

IT seems at first sight, a strange thing that the apostles should have been asleep at such a time, yet probably, if we think of the circumstances in which they were placed, and of the extreme excitement under which they must have labored, it will not appear at…

Dressing in the Morning

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 21, 1881

THIS passage is a piece of holy teaching set forth under the parable of rising in the morning and preparing for the work of the day. May the Holy Spirit help me to place it before you in a clear light. It is a great mistake in a man’s life when he does not kno…

A Visit to Christ’s Hospital

Charles Spurgeon • Dec 12, 1907

[Another sermon by Mr. Spurgeon on verses 17-20 is #1824, The History of Sundry Fools] IT is a very profitable thing to visit a hospital. The sight of others’ sickness tends to make us grateful for our own health. And it is a great thing to be kept in a thankf…
