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 is an adaptation from an 1888 sermon by the famous preacher Charles Spurgeon. Spurgeon’s message is based upon Revelation 12:11. This sermon is about how the blood of Jesus Christ is the believers’ spiritual weapon. This booklet is broken down into two points with the first being what this conquering weapon is and the second point being how to apply the blood of Christ in one’s spiritual battle with Satan. The second part was practical while the first point pretty much is driven by the truth of the Gospel of what Christ has done through His blood. I found this to be an edifying read and used this to read with another brother together. I believe others will find this to be edifying as well.

Adapted from a sermon of the same name. Wonderful, wonderful exposition of the topic from Revelation 12:11. Spurgeon teaches the blood of the Lamb is effectual and final.

In Spurgeon's inimitable style, uses language to flourish out his points: What this conquering weapon is (exploring his death, the substitutionary sacrifice, and the death being effective for taking away sin). Part 2, How we use the blood (battle with satan in the heavenlies, and battle with satan on earth).

Insightful and moving treatment of a little exposited topic. Recommended.

Good book. Great teaching on the victory we have in Christ and overcoming our adversary the devil. Four stars, only because the writings is a little hard to follow.
