Spurgeon Gold

by Charles Haddon Spurgeon, Rob Holm (Foreword)

Books about the life and ministry of"The Prince of Preacher's are not uncommon. However Spurgeon Gold takes a unique approach. It has isolated the great preacher's deep passion for the lost many of his powerful gospel proclamations, and his convicting exhortations to Christians to share their faith. You will weep your way through through this compilation.

About the author

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) was England's best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. In 1854, just four years after his conversion, Spurgeon, then only 20, became pastor of London's famed New Park Street Church (formerly pastored by the famous Baptist theologian, John Gill). The congregation quickly outgrew their building, moved to Exeter Hall, then to Surrey Music Hall. In these venues, Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000—all in the days before electronic amplification. In 1861, the congregation moved permanently to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle.

I love to read Spurgeon because of his mastery of the English language. He has been compared to Shakespeare in his command of vocabulary. This book was more of a compliation of sayings and excerpts. I much more enjoy reading his sermons and essays where he takes a thought and expounds on it. This book did help my comprehension of the Jewish law and how it is important it is in understanding the atonement.

Great words of wisdom for the "prince of preachers". Ray Comfort has done a great job compiling great snippets for Spurgeon.
