The works of Charles Spurgeon have inspired millions of Christians around the world for over a hundred years. His wisdom and insight into God’s Word and world have helped others discover the richness of Scripture. Answers in Genesis is pleased to present the text of a large collection of sermons from this 19th century “Prince of Preachers.”

We have fellowship with God and with each other upon the basis of the infinite love which is displayed in Jesus Christ our Lord.
Paul has exposed the sins of his day which crimsons the cheek of the modest when they read it, and makes both the ears of him who hears it to tingle.
