“The Zeal of the Lord”

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 12, 1914

BEYOND all controversy, this is a most remarkable text. Zeal is an attribute which is attributable to man, we do not often think or speak of the zeal of the LORD of hosts. At first sight, it might seem to be a word misplaced, God’s zeal, the divine arm, the fe…

Gone, Gone Forever

Charles Spurgeon • May 28, 1876

THE parable which the prophet acted before Ahab was simple and natural. A soldier in the heat of the fight was charged by an officer to take care of an important prisoner. “Keep this man,” he said, “and if you allow him to escape, your life shall answer for it…

The Weaned Child

Charles Spurgeon

I WAS once conversing with a very excellent aged minister, and while we were talking about our frames and feelings, he made the following confession—he said, “When I read that passage in the Psalm, ‘My soul is even as a weaned child,’ I wish it were true of me…

The Pilgrim’s Longings

Charles Spurgeon

ABRAHAM left his country at God’s command, and he never went back again. The proof of faith lies in perseverance. There is a sort of faith which does run well, but it is soon hindered and it does not obey the truth. That is not the faith to which the promise i…

Perfect Sanctification

Charles Spurgeon

DEAR friends, ever since the Lord has quickened us by His grace we have begun to look into ourselves and to search our hearts to see our condition before God. Hence many things which once caused us no disquietude now create in us great anxiety. We thought that…

The Plain Man’s Pathway to Peace

Charles Spurgeon

I AM not about to expound this incident, nor to draw illustrations from it, but only to direct your attention to one single point in it, and that is, its extreme simplicity. There are other cases of blind men, and we have various incidents connected with them,…

Gathering to the Center

Charles Spurgeon • Jun 4, 1876

THE fact as it stands is well worthy of our notice, and offers considerable encouragement to us; the multitudes came to hear our Lord, and to see His miracles; He could not be hidden—wherever He appeared a congregation soon assembled; indeed the crowds became…

The King’s Mowings

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 28, 1909

CERTAIN lands belonged to the king, so far, that he always took the first cut of grass for himself and left any aftermath to those who worked upon the land. Now, our great King has His mowings, too.

Comfort for the Tempted

Charles Spurgeon • Jan 1, 1899

THE children of God are all subject to temptation; some of them are tempted more than others, but I am persuaded that there is not one, except those who are too young to be conscious of evil, who will enter heaven without having endured some temptation. If any…

The Head of the Church

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 1, 1868

AS if to show us that this title of “Head of the church” is to be held in highest esteem, it is here placed in connection with the loftiest honors of our Lord Jesus. In the same breath the Son of God is styled “the image of the invisible God,” “the firstborn o…

Dying Daily

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 30, 1868

IN a certain sense we all do this. The very moment we begin to live we commence to die. We are like hour-glasses, there are fewer sands left to run from the very moment they begin to trickle down. The whole of our life is like an ebbing tide, our first months…

The Best Thing in the Best Place

Charles Spurgeon • Aug 23, 1906

THIS verse occurs in a psalm in which the contrast between the righteous and the wicked is drawn in a very vivid fashion. The wicked are depicted as being very frequently rich and prosperous, yet no one who is truly wise would wish to change places with them.…

Wake Up! Wake Up!

Charles Spurgeon

THIS exhortation, as you will readily perceive, is not addressed to the ungodly. These words are not spoken to those who are dead in sin, but to those who are alive unto God, though somewhat given to slumber. There are many expostulations and admonitions which…

Fellowship with Christ

Charles Spurgeon • May 29, 1898

THERE is one great difference between Christ, as the Founder of the Christian religion, and all mere men who have attempted to fashion a system of belief. The difference is not merely that Christ’s was a true religion, and theirs a false one, but there is anot…

The Plumb Line

Charles Spurgeon • Oct 6, 1904

GOD usually speaks by men according to their natural capacity. Amos was a herdsman. He was not a man of noble and priestly rank like Ezekiel, nor a man of gigantic intellect and mighty eloquence like Isaiah. He was a simple herdsman, and therefore God did not…

Inquiring of God

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 12, 1906

YOU perceive, dear friends, that, although David knew that he was anointed to be king over Israel, yet he would not take a step towards his rightful position without first asking guidance from God, and moreover, he was not content with a general direction, but…

Fields White for Harvest

Charles Spurgeon • Jul 29, 1866

MANY unbelieving Christians have a very large stock of reasons for not expecting to see many conversions. They suppose that any present manifestation of the divine power in connection with the truth is not to be expected. They read the history of past ages and…

Paul’s Doxology

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 7, 1875

THIS chapter has a whole service of worship within itself. It certainly contains a sermon, for Paul gives a very earnest address upon the unveiling of the hidden mystery, so that the Gentiles are made partakers of the promise in Christ by the Gospel. It contai…

Resurrection with Christ

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 12, 1868

THERE have been conferences of late of all sorts of people upon all kinds of subjects, but what a remarkable thing a conference would be if it were possible of persons who have been raised from the dead! If you could somehow or other get together the daughter…

All Things Are Ready, Come

Charles Spurgeon • May 13, 1877

THIS invitation was first of all made to the Jews, but it seems to me to have a peculiar appropriateness to ourselves. It is later in the day than when first the Lord was here, and therefore the supper time is evidently closer at hand. The shadows lengthen, th…

A Family Sermon

Charles Spurgeon

GOD in infinite grace had entered into covenant with Noah that He would preserve him and his family alive. The tenor of that covenant you will find in the eighteenth verse of the sixth chapter, “With thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into…

“The Sun of Righteousness”

Charles Spurgeon • Nov 12, 1871

WE should feel quite justified in applying the language of the nineteenth Psalm to our Lord Jesus Christ from the simple fact that He is so frequently compared to the sun, and especially in the passage which we have given you as our second text, wherein He is…

The Old Man Crucified

Charles Spurgeon • Apr 11, 1869

EVERY new man is two men. Every believer in Christ is what he was and not what he was. The old nature and the new nature exist at the same time in each regenerate individual. That old nature the apostle calls a man, because it is a complete manhood after the i…
