Francis (1936–2025), the Pope Who Made the Roman Church More ‘Catholic’

Spurgeon’s Plea for Preachers: Leave Room for the Holy Spirit

There are many questions that preachers are perennially debating: Should I preach sequentially through books of the Bible, or can I preach in different portions of Scripture from week to week? What tools should I use in my sermon preparation? Should I preach from a manuscript, or an outline, or without any notes? Of course, there is no one right answer to these questions. To answer them, a preacher will need to wisely consider a number of things: his giftings, his preaching experience, his congregation, how much time he has to prepare, and many other contextual factors. But amid all [...]

Sermon Of The Week: “Vile Ingratitude”

Sometimes as Christians, we are tempted to think that sin is less serious for the Christian than for the non-Christian. Since our sins are forgiven and Christ has paid for them, we think they don’t really matter anymore. But in this sermon, Spurgeon shows from Scripture that the opposite is true: Sin is even more serious for the Christian. After all, remember what you were and the amazing grace that God has shown you “Yet there we were, dying, nay dead, rotten, corrupted, so abominable that it might well be said, ‘Bury this dead one out, of my sight,’ when Jehovah [...]

Sermon Of The Week: “The Peculiar Sleep of the Beloved”

Have you ever considered the gift that sleep is? “Sleep, sleep, my child; I give thee sleep.” Spurgeon teaches that such is the blessing which the Lord grants to His beloved. From Psalm 127:2, he conveys that the gift of sleep is a tangibly sweet blessing of God which ought to be enjoyed and appreciated, not disregarded as an unnecessary luxury. He explains that it is fruitless to strain oneself by staying awake late or rising early, for one truly needs God’s blessed sleep for the rejuvenation of their beings. Taking rest is how the Lord has created us to [...]

Just As Near to Heaven: The Death of Annie Dunn

Annie Dunn loved her church. She was the daughter of J. T. Dunn, an elder at the Metropolitan Tabernacle. Under Spurgeon’s preaching, it was in the church that she came to hear the gospel of grace and love her Savior. Eventually, she professed her faith in Christ through baptism and joined the church. Now, as a member of the church, she participated in the ministries of the church. She joined a women’s Bible class. She gave generously to the work of the orphanage. And it was in the church prayer meetings that she heard about the growing work of China [...]

Spurgeon’s Love of Hymns and Poetry

Spurgeon’s love of poetry can be seen today in the Spurgeon Library in Kansas City, MO. In his collection, we find over 200 books of poetry and hymnody, occupying several cabinets. So much of Spurgeon’s life and ministry can be traced through these books. Nearly one-third of these volumes are hymnbooks for Christian worship, including Horatius Bonar’s Hymns of Faith and Hope, Anne Steele’s Hymns, Psalms, and Poems, Isaac Watts’ Hymns and Spiritual Songs, and many others. [...]

Door of Hope (Hosea Study #7)

(To read these posts in order from the beginning, start here.)Read Hosea 2:15-23 Last time, we stepped into the wilderness to discover that in the Bible, the wilderness is often a harsh and dangerous place God uses to test and refine his people. It is also a place where he provides sanctuary and allows his people to encounter him in powerful ways. Today, were going to go back in time a bit to when Joshua fought the battle of Jericho. Remember the scene? [...]

I Will Allure Her and Bring Her Into the Wilderness (Hosea Study #6)

(To read these posts in order from the beginning, start here.)Read Hosea 2:14Long before God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac, he had another son, Ishmael. God had promised Abram and Sarai a son, and when he didn’t move fast enough for them, they took matters into their own hands. Sarai gave her handmaid Hagar to Abram as a wife and things didn’t turn out so well. Sarai became jealous of Hagar and dealt harshly with her. So, Hagar escaped into the wi [...]

Hedge My Way With Thorns (Hosea Study #5)

(To read these posts in order from the beginning, start here.)Read Hosea 2:1-13In America, committed Christians are now a “worldview minority” in an increasingly anti-Christian culture. Israel was not just a worldview minority in their surrounding culture but was a tiny speck on the map of a rapidly expanding and violent Assyrian Empire. They were also surrounded by the polytheism and Baalism of the Canaanite culture. But they were called to worship and depend on Y [...]

No, Martin Luther Was Not a Deconstructionist

This article is in response to this piece from The Gospel Coalition. As a past TGC contributor, as an act of good faith, I did express my concerns directly to TGC before posting my article here. **Update** The Gospel Coalition was gracious to publish a condensed version of my article on their site. No, Martin Luther Was Not a Deconstructionist. And neither was Jesus. Many years ago, my Christian beliefs were challenged intellectually by a progressive Christian pastor. It t [...]

Mercy Me... (Hosea Study #4)

(To read these posts in order from the beginning, start here.)Read Hosea 1:8-11More than a thousand years before Hosea, there lived a nomadic farmer who was out in the middle of nowhere minding his own business when God started speaking to him. And what God said wasn’t easy. God put Abraham through a grueling test of faith by asking him to slaughter his only son on an altar of wood. This was set to take place at a location that would eventually become the site of the first Israelite te [...]

You Are Built Up In Christ

Paul’s letter to the Colossians, along with Paul’s letters to the Ephesians and Philemon, was apparently written during Paul’s first imprisonment. If this is the case, the most likely date is around 60-62 A.D. Moreover, Paul’s letter to the Colossians covers much of the same material and uses many of the same themes as his letter to the Ephesians. [...]

Christian or American

On a wintry day in 1618 Rene Descartes rejected tradition, the church, and the Bible as the source for authority. In his famous conclusion “I think, therefore I am,” he revolutionized the quest for authority. Following Descartes declaration, a new day was sprung. It was called “the enlightenment.”Deeply influenced by enlightenment thought, John Lock provided the world as well as the American colon [...]
