Let us talk about the best things




Let us talk about the best things


There is no preaching the gospel if the atonement be left out.
 No matter how well we speak of Jesus as a pattern, we have done nothing unless we point him out as the substitute and sinbearer. 

We must, in fact, continually imitate the apostle, and speak plainly of him 
“Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree.”

 It is to Christ, then, this morning as the sin-bearer that I am about to direct your attention.
 It may not be many times longer that I may have the opportunity to preach the gospel, for bodily pain reminds me of my mortality. 



How soon are the hale and the strong, as well as the sickly, carried off! and so many during the last few days whom we knew have been borne from among us to the silent tomb, that we are reminded how feeble our life is, how short our time for service.

 Let us, then, brethren, deal always with the best things, and attend to the most necessary works while yet our little oil suffices to feed the lamp of life. 



Rising newly from a sick bed, I have felt that if any theme in the Scriptures has an importance far above all the rest, it is the subject of the atoning blood, and I have resolved to repeat that old, old story again and again.

From a sermon by Charles Haddon Spurgeon entitled "Death For Sin And Death To Sin," 
delivered November 16, 1873.

Reflection and inspiration from the
"Prince of Preachers," 
Charles Haddon Spurgeon.
