One Hundred and Ninety Sermons, Vol. 3 of 3


Book Description

Excerpt from One Hundred and Ninety Sermons, Vol. 3 of 3: On the Hundred and Nineteenth Psalm Verse 124. - Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy and teach me thy statutes. In this verse, we have two requests, the one general, the other partien lar; wherein he would have the Lord exercise his mercy to him, Show thy mercy to me, in teaching me thy law.' The one respects the privilege part of religion, the other the duty part. The one concerns time past, or the pardon of sin already committed, Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy; the other, prevention of sin for the time to come, That I may perform my duty for the future, teach me thy statutes. Mercy is the ground of his request; teaching God's law, the matter of it. He would have this gift bestowed on him freely.

Excerpt from One Hundred and Ninety Sermons, Vol. 2 of 3: On the Hundred and Nineteenth Psalm Reason II. - The sooner we turn to the ways of God, the better we speed. How so? I. Partly in this, that the work goes on the more kindly, as being car ried forth in the strength of the present influence and impulsion of grace; whereas, if the heart grow cold again, it will be the more difficult. A blow While the iron is hot, doth more than ten at another time when it grows cold again so, when thy heart grows cold, thou wilt not have that advantage as when thou art under a warm conviction. And indeed, that is the Devil's cheat to speak of hereafter, to elude the importunity of the present conviction that is upon you. You know, when the waters were stirred, then was the time to put in he that stepped in first had experience of the sanative virtue of the waters (john v. So, when the heart is stirred, we should not lose this advantage, but come on upon that call. There are several metaphors in Scripture that do express this: sometimes, we must Open when God knocks (cant. We must enter when God opens, lest the door be shut against us (matt. We must come forth when he bids us, as Lot out of Sodom, lest we perish: when a thing is done speedily and in season, it is a great advantage.

Communion with Christ and His People


Book Description

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892) was the most famous Baptist minister of his generation. For such a significant figure, he has received surprisingly little scholarly coverage. This present work seeks to make a contribution to Spurgeon studies by examining him through the lens of his "spirituality." A wealth of primary material, much of it previously untapped, is used to build up a picture of his spiritual life. Whereas older and more recent interpretations of Spurgeon have a tendency to be one-dimensional, examination of his spirituality reveals him to be a complex figure, one who was molded by a diverse range of factors. Despite this complexity, a unifying theme for Spurgeon's spirituality is traced and fresh light is shed on the foremost popular preacher of the Victorian age.
