A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day morning, Dec 12th 1880 Fake news is not a new phenomenon. This sermon was born from the false rumour that Spurgeon had died. He speaks of the importance of spiritual as well as physical life; that all true life is life for Christ. Otherwise we are spiritually dead, even while we appear to live.

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's Day evening July 8th 1869 Do you long to know the future of your life on earth? Spurgeon gives strong reasons for the veil that is cast over the days yet to come. He argues that this enables trust in God to develop and our present joys to increase. He explores the Providence of God and points us to simple submission to the Divine will. It is here that our peace will be found. Spurgeon always seemed to confront such themes with courage, maturity and faith.

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day Morning April 11th 1858. Some of us are weary of modern rules concerning "Health and Safety" (or OSHA in the USA). However, Spurgeon, after having preached to thousands in a temporary structure, narrowly escaped with his life! Hundreds may have died, as he explains at the beginning. This led the preacher to consider the Hand of God in all things. Spurgeon seems to have had a very colourful life (see the introduction to his sermon: "Alive")! Here the preacher views the subject of God's Providence with boldness, thoughtfulness and courage.

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day morning, January 8th 1860 Typical of the early sermons of CH Spurgeon, the introduction grasps our imagination with a sublime and vivid illustration.

A sermon delivered by C.H. Spurgeon, Lord's day morning 18th Feb 1866. A useful preacher will study God's Word, and lovingly communicate its truth to people. Spurgeon, however, went further. He studied the ways of men and women, and could describe with frightening accuracy the hardness of our hearts. Some preachers unwittingly encourage those who feel too hurt to forgive. Here, however, the preacher resists every bitter thought with all his might.

Here we see Spurgeon at his most relaxed and humorous. Speaking of these informal lectures on Friday afternoons at the College, one of Spurgeon’s former students and a close friend said this: “In the presence of his students he seemed to be as much at home, and as free from all restraints, as in the quiet seclusion of his own home. Many a time when listening to him in college I felt that the world outside, having only his works or having heard him preach, did not know Spurgeon. There were elements and powers in him which only those who saw him often in his presidential chair were acquainted with. In the pulpit, as he himself has said, there was often the necessity to repress certain tendencies of his nature, such as wit, sarcasm , and mimicry; but in the college these were allowed full play, so that his talks were not more instructive than they were entertaining and amusing. The absolute humanness of the man too was seldom seen as in college. If each student had taken notes of his wise and witty utterances, Dr. Pierson's remarks would prove to be most true. He says : ‘If the history of his humour alone could be written, it would fill volumes, and it would be a great contribution to the innocent merriment of the human race as well as a great revelation of character. He had an anecdote for any and every new emergency, and many of his stories carried all the force of argument and illustration combined .’” (W. Williams: Personal Reminiscences of CH Spurgeon)

Here we see how those who serve the Lord as preachers and elders should conduct themselves day to day. Every believer can benefit from this advice, as to how best to shine for the Lord in all company.

This lecture is of course for preachers. In it we learn the importance of attaining and retaining the concentration of the congregation.

Here, Spurgeon is speaking especially to ministers of the Gospel. We see the importance of true devotion to the Lord. How strange it is, that the Author of God’s Word is consulted less frequently that commentators upon it!

This sermon deals with spiritual laziness in particular. In it we see Spurgeon showing us that even a field of weeds can teach us! The preacher here seeks to correct the errors of hyper-Calvinism, and the excuses of those who believe that evangelism is for others and not them. Here we see the vital importance of spiritual zeal.

This sermon was preached by CH Spurgeon Lord's day morning 2nd February 1873. Here Spurgeon deals with the importance of Thankfulness, and the joy of expressing our gratitude and praise to God. We have to picture that morning, so long ago, as full of snow; with dark clouds overhead. The preacher here finds good reasons at all times for thankfulness!
