This sermon preached by Charles Spurgeon invites us to meditate on God's presence. It is a heartfelt cry for divine help in times of distress. About the author: C. H. Spurgeon was to nineteenth-century England what D. L Moody was to America. Although Spurgeon never attended theological school, by the age of twenty-one he was the most popular preacher in London. He preached to crowds of ten thousand at Exeter Hall and the Surrey Music Hall. Then when the Metropolitan Tabernacle was built, thousands gathered every Sunday for over forty years to hear his lively sermons. In addition to his regular pastoral duties, he founded Sunday schools, churches, an orphanage, and the Pastor's College. He edited a monthly church magazine and promoted literature distribution. Sincerely and straightforwardly he denounced error both in the Church of England and among his own Baptists. An ardent evangelical, he deplored the trend of the day toward biblical criticism. This warm, fascinating story enduringly records Spurgeon's character and focuses light on different aspects of the man. The result is a lifelike picture of Spurgeon as he lived and labored for the Lord he loved.

The resurrection is doubtless one of the most important doctrines of the Christian faith. Without it we are left with a Jesus who was merely a great teacher, ahead of his time, yet far from divine. With it, however, we have undeniable proof of His divinity and a rock-solid hope for the future. "The Resurrection: A Symposium" is a classic collection of essays by the theological heavyweights of the 19th century. Topics include the meaning of the resurrection for the saved and unsaved, defenses against common objections to the resurrection and the importance of the resurrection as the foundation of everything a Christian believes.

With rich exposition saturated by Scripture, Charles Spurgeon masterfully captures Christ's everlasting victory through the resurrection. This collection of twelve sermons, preached throughout Spurgeon's forty-year ministry, offers treasures of wisdom for Lent, Easter, and throughout the year. Gleaming with vivid imagery and practical application, each stand-alone message explores the last days of Jesus' time on earth-allowing us to see God's ultimate revelation unfold. Hear timeless truth echo across the years as you consider God's gift to us in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Book jacket.

Every circumstance connected with the life of Christ is deeply interesting to the Christian mind. Wherever we behold our Saviour, he is well worthy of our notice. This sermon preached by Charles Spurgeon based on Matthew 28: 6 is to invite reflection on the life and death of our Savior.
