Power in the Blood

by Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon knew that when sinners put their faith and trust in the shed blood of Jesus, they begin a whole new life. Weakness, injuries, sickness, impurities—these are the effects of sin. Through the blood of Christ, the believer experiences cleansing, healing, purifying—mankind's miracle. This book is a collection of Spurgeon's teachings on the power of Christ's blood, which can be applied to the believer's life in much the same way as the Passover blood protected the Israelites. He teaches how the blood of Christ provides salvation, forgiveness, redemption, healing, power to overcome temptation, and even unity in the church when the evil one tries to divide us.

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.

This book is so Spurgeon, really needed his wisdom in a time like this. Christians would love the meat in this book.

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

Great book. Hard to hang with sometimes due to the heavy content and antiquated writing style. But profitable doctrinally.

Excellent.

I likely would never have picked up this book for myself, but it was bought for me as a gift, and I am so grateful for it.
