Summary

Preaching at Epsom Racecourse, Spurgeon speaks about what it truly means to run the heavenly race. A great example of ‘situational preaching,’ it grips the mind with its liveliness even without the immediate physical context. Spurgeon insists here not only on the fact that salvation is all of grace, but also that we must preach the absolute necessity of a religious life in order that we may reach heaven at last. Full of exhortations and encouragements, it calls us to genuine endeavour in the heavenly race.

    A Home Mission Sermon (S 259)

    Release Date: 09/17/2021

    Description: This is one of Spurgeon’s calls to arms: a trumpet sounding to stir the saints to endeavour. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might, says the Preacher of Ecclesiastes, and Spurgeon enter’s into the Preacher’s exhortation, and then develops some evangelical arguments—some gospel reasons—why every Christian should take it to heart, and put forth their hand in serving the Lord Almighty. It leaves us asking not, “What must I do?” but, “What may I do” in considering the opportunities before us to bring glory to God.

    The Claims of God (S1197)

    Release Date: 04/12/2024

    Description: God is God. Simple as that might sound, it is the profound truth which Spurgeon works out, in measure, in this sermon. Because God is God, and—for believers—especially because he is our God, we are to glorify him in all things. The claims of God are grounded in his being and doing, and then Spurgeon assesses our response to them. So often our attitude is one of disdain or neglect. Where is the honour to which God is entitled from his creatures, his people? And so Spurgeon pleads with us to embrace the claims of God, as not only proper but delightful, ennobling, purifying. It begins with faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and works out in cheerful and willing service to the God of our salvation, seeking to honour his claims in thought, word, and deed.
