The PEOPLE's preacher

 

1 Corinthians 16:13

King James Version

13 Watch ye,

On 28 September 2019, The HOLY SPIRIT led me to a sermon by Charles H. Spurgeon.

That was my first encounter with this preacher's riveting sermon, which was beautifully read.

Today -- nearly 28 months after -- SPIRIT led me to a life movie on the "People's Preacher".

I came to appreciate God's champion even more, viewing his beginnings, and travails, in Victorian England.

The narrator informs that Spurgeon had preached to over 10 million people.

Even as he passed on, his sermons continue to live on.

Such is the power of GOD's WORD in the faithful, and those who thirst for His WORD.

Rare, and far between, are preachers totally devoted to the WORD of GOD, unswerving in their faith, and devotion.

Christ's First and Last Subject

How to Please God

For the Troubled


Because I VOLUNTEERED
