A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day morning, Dec 12th 1880Fake news is not a new phenomenon. This sermon was born from the false rumour that Spurgeon had died. He speaks of the importance of spiritual as well as physical life; that all true life is life for Christ. Otherwise we are spiritually dead, even while we appear to live.Read by:…

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day Morning April 11th 1858. Some of us are weary of modern rules concerning "Health and Safety" (or OSHA in the USA).

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.

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…

This sermon deals with spiritual laziness in particular. In it we see Spurgeon showing us that even a field of weeds can teach us!

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.

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 …

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 help…

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's Day morning 28th December1856.

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.
