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.”

It is very clear to everyone who reads this Psalm that these are not so much the words of David as they are the words of David’s Son and David’s Lord, our blessed Master.

The Israelites had for their guide, instructor, and tutor, in order to prepare them for Canaan, none other than Jehovah himself.
Though the Gospel of Jesus Christ most certainly addresses itself to the vilest of the vile, it is not exclusively to such that the message of salvation is sent.
You cannot hear of Jesus Christ without either getting a blessing or involving the responsibility of rejecting a blessing.
What a difference grace makes whenever it enters the heart! The tongue of the dumb does not simply speak, but it sings.
The text is entirely taken up with three things; namely, with knowing, with believing, and with the person who is known and believed.
I hope to be able to give you, beloved, some honey out of the rock, by dwelling on one or two choice, plain texts that speak their sweetness directly to the heart.
When we speak of “preventing grace” we do not intend to describe the grace that keeps us from sin, but the grace which goes before our actually believing in Christ.

These sermons from Charles Spurgeon are a series that is for reference and not necessarily a position of Answers in Genesis. Spurgeon did not entirely agree with six days of creation and dives into subjects that are beyond the AiG focus (e.g., Calvinism vs. Arminianism, modes of baptism, and so on).
