“Do Something” – Charles Spurgeon
As we watch our world plunge further and further into sinful and evil debauchery, there is only one thing that can be done to save it, preach the gospel! Yet there are far too many “churches” that simply refuse to obey the command of Christ to do this. So, I commend Christians to read the […]

“If the Devil comes to my door with his horns visible, I will never let him in; but if he comes with his hat on as a respectable gentlemen, he is admitted at once.” From a sermon by Charles Haddon Spurgeon entitled “The Snare of the Fowler” – C. H. Spurgeon 1834 – 1892
God be merciful to me, a sinner
This is from Charles Spurgeon’s ‘Confession and Absolution’ preached on October 3rd, 1858… What did he confess? He confessed, as our text tells us that he was a sinner. Now, how suitable is this prayer for us! For is there a lip here present that this confession will not suit—”God be merciful to me a […]

Spurgeon “But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of […]

Oh, that, you and I might get into the very heart of the Word of God, and get that Word into ourselves! As I have seen the silkworm eat into the leaf, and consume it, so ought we to do with the Word of the Lord; not crawl ever its surface, but eat right into […]

Man has become so fallen that he cannot keep the law. Sooner might the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots, than he that is accustomed to do evil learn to do well (Jeremiah 13:23); but what man cannot do, by reason of the perversity of the flesh, God performs within him, working […]

Quotes (618)
But the man Christ can be but in one place, and he is now at the right hand of the Majesty on high. It is absurd, it is horrible, both to faith and to reason, to say that Christ’s body is eaten, and that his blood is drunk in tens of thousands of places wherever […]

Book review: “All of Grace” by Charles Spurgeon.
I just completed this work by Spurgeon (the audio book version) and found it to be a wealth of encouragement for those who wrestle with their assurance of salvation. It was also a deep source of doctrinal truths regarding God’s grace and provision for salvation; helping me to better understand that salvation is all of […]

“Rivers of water run from my eyes…”
Psalm 119:136–Rivers of water run down from my eyes, because men do not keep Your law. I’ve been reading through the Psalms lately, and just started on Psalm 119 a couple days ago. I am about halfway through it, and it did not take long to realize something: The writer of this Psalm does not […]
