The Great Revival (S 185)

It might surprise us, but Spurgeon had no high opinion of what many call revival. If it were a genuine work of God, he was all heart, but he had seen too many abuses for him to jump to conclusions. So, conscious of God’s work in America, he sets before us a scriptural notion of revival, identifying the work of God’s Spirit through preaching and praying, identifying the glorious effects of such a work when true, cautioning against errors and excesses, before pleading that God’s people would never obstruct but only labour and plead for such blessings as God alone can give.
