A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, one Thursday evening circa 1866 How sad to turn our backs on our enemies! If fear and cowardice had to be addressed in 1866, how much more today! It seems in our days that the dark clouds of persecution against the people of God are gathering.

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day morning 18th Feb 1866. A useful preacher will study God's Word, and lovingly communicate its truth to people. Spurgeon, however, went further. He studied the ways of men and women, and could describe with frightening accuracy the hardness of our hearts. Some preachers unwittingly encourage those who feel too hurt to forgive. Here, however, the preacher resists every bitter thought with all his might.

Here we see Spurgeon at his most relaxed and humorous. Speaking of these informal lectures on Friday afternoons at the College, one of Spurgeon’s former students and a close friend said this: “In the presence of his students he seemed to be as much at home, and as free from all restraints, as in the quiet seclusion of his own home. Many a time when listening to him in college I felt that the world outside, having only his works or having heard him preach, did not know Spurgeon. There were elemen...

Here we see how those who serve the Lord as preachers and elders should conduct themselves day to day. Every believer can benefit from this advice, as to how best to shine for the Lord in all company.

This lecture is of course for preachers. In it we learn the importance of attaining and retaining the concentration of the congregation.

Here, Spurgeon is speaking especially to ministers of the Gospel. We see the importance of true devotion to the Lord. How strange it is, that the Author of God’s Word is consulted less frequently that commentators upon it!

This sermon deals with spiritual laziness in particular. In it we see Spurgeon showing us that even a field of weeds can teach us! The preacher here seeks to correct the errors of hyper-Calvinism, and the excuses of those who believe that evangelism is for others and not them. Here we see the vital importance of spiritual zeal.

This sermon was preached by CH Spurgeon Lord's day morning 2nd February 1873. Here Spurgeon deals with the importance of Thankfulness, and the joy of expressing our gratitude and praise to God. We have to picture that morning, so long ago, as full of snow; with dark clouds overhead. The preacher here finds good reasons at all times for thankfulness!

“For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.” (Romans 11:36) Here Spurgeon draws us into a deeply doctrinal, practical and God-honouring sermon. Read by: Gavin Childress

Here, as I have suggested many times, perhaps you, the listener, may first wish to write down some notes of what you might have said under this heading. Then, having written some thoughts, listen to the far-reaching breadth of Spurgeon’s sermon upon this theme. Notice his own carefulness lest in any way he reduce his Creator to the passions of us mere men. Yet take note also of his prayerful, forthright and deeply considered approach to this vital theme.

Here Spurgeon deals with the theme of thankfulness. Part way through the sermon he tells us his own reason for thankfulness on that day. He ascribes all glory, not to man, but to the living God. He refers at 15:04 to the terrible events at the Surrey Gardens Music Hall, when pranksters shouted “Fire!” and in the ensuing stampede, eight people were crushed to death. This event cast a long shadow over Spurgeon and led to great depression of spirit. More details can be seen here: http://victorianca...

This sermon seems to have the dew of heaven about it. It seems so fresh and vigorous; so relevant to our times. Spurgeon, so vivid and original in his grasp of the theme of Christ’s victory, speaks in ways we do not expect. The preacher admits that Satan’s legions are bold and brave; but he warns them of the fiery judgment to come. This sermon helps us to immerse ourselves in the great Victory which shall be heaven’s everlasting theme. Here we are reminded of that great Day when Death, and the G...

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's Day morning 28th December1856. Spurgeon was only 22 years of age when he preached this sermon; and the spiritual maturity God had given him was clearly seen. In later years, Spurgeon became far more cautious about preaching and commentating upon the Book of Revelation. Here he deals with the great themes of salvation by grace, election, heavenly worship. There is great spiritual benefit to be enjoyed, whatever particular views you hold of the 144,000 a...

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's Day morning September 16th 1883 This sermon was read out during an emotional time for me. The sermon so richly explains the poverty of man, and the riches of Christ! I felt deeply the joy of pardon, and the sorrow of our spiritual bankruptcy by nature! I hope it is a real blessing to all who need forgiveness.
