English Baptist preacher who ministered in London from 1854 until his death, from 1861 at the Metropolitan Tabernacle; his weekly printed sermons, devotional works and books such as All of Grace circulated widely in the nineteenth century.
Spurgeon's short evangelistic book for those seeking salvation, explaining that God justifies the ungodly by grace through faith, and treating faith, repentance, regeneration, perseverance and the fear of falling away.
Four of Spurgeon's sermons: on young Abijah, in whom 'some good thing' was found toward the Lord; on the Tooting railway accident and the Christ Church Lane disaster, arguing that calamities are not special judgments; on the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit as the glory of the church; and on the duty of remembering the poor.
