Weakness, injuries, impurities--these are the effects of sin. Cleansing, healing, purifying--these are the effects of sin's cure. Charles Spurgeon discusses how to be accepted in Christ, start a whole new life, receive help when tempted, rid your church of strife, and share the Gospel with others. You will gain spiritual wisdom as you explore God's Word with Spurgeon and apply it to your life.
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.
my first touchstone with spurgeon - elegant, powerful truths indeed wringed dry of their mother verses - thank God for enlightenment on various topics and encouraging realities - notably how we are healed by the stripes of Jesus, and the oft-granted wonder that Yahweh's eyes are always upon us
