Many books are published these days with the name "Spurgeon" on them. However, so many of these books are edited down adaptations of something Spurgeon wrote or preached. Too often these "books" are actually 3 or 4 sermons cut apart and taped together into a book format. The unfortunate result is that much of Spurgeon's beliefs, exhortations, and theology are lost, and all that remains is his poetic style. Few publishers have remained true to the real Spurgeon, instead using his name to sell books and make money. Their finished product is watered-down milk, psychology at best, instead of the real meat of the real Spurgeon's preaching.

This book, however, is the REAL Spurgeon! This is a collection of over 50 of his sermons, the REAL unedited sermons, and many more expositions of Scripture as they were published in 1892. Read this book and hear the meat of Spurgeon, the depth and conviction with which he preached, and the consistency with which his theology rests upon Scripture.

And these sermons are not just historical pieces; they are useful to us even today! No Christian can read this book and not find his soul challenged, uplifted, convicted, and educated in knowledge and wisdom. The Victorian Londoners found Spurgeon's ministry to be all these things, and since that time it has had its effect on so many others, too - and it can have that effect on you!

This book is published by Banner of Truth, one of the greatest publishing houses of our day. Their faithfulness to truth is an example to the publishers who just seek to publish what will sell.

This book is a great shelf volume, well-bound and durable. Read it every day, and it will still wear well.

Perhaps you've heard the new Spurgeon, the one created by so many modern publishers and editors. If you want to know what his sermons were REALLY like, and if you want your soul to be taught and ministered to by the "Prince of Preachers" himself, read this book!

Since Amazon doesn't appear to currently carry these volumes, I'm posting this information on where to find new copies.

Pilgrim Publications currently publishes new reprints of the entire Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit series, New Park Street Pulpit series, Sword and Trowel series, and most other Spurgeon books.

You can buy them from various places, including Cumberland Valley Bible Book Service (a large Reformed bookseller), who has most of them in stock.
