The Spurgeon Series 1859 & 1860: Unabridged Sermons In Modern Language

This volume gathers the unabridged sermons delivered by the prominent Victorian preacher Charles Haddon Spurgeon during the years 1859 and 1860. The sermons have been carefully rendered into modern language while preserving their original content and theological messages. The book aims to make Spurgeon's influential preaching accessible to contemporary audiences who may find the original 19th-century English challenging. It covers a period of significant spiritual revival and social change, offering insights into Spurgeon's biblical exposition and pastoral concerns during that time. more

“A text is not a text unless it hides from the first comer, from the first glance, the law of its composition and the rules of its game. A text remains, moreover, forever imperceptible. Its laws and rules are not, however, harbored in the inaccessibility of a secret; it is simply that they can never be booked, in the present, into anything that could rigorously be called a perception.”

“But because me and myself, as you no doubt are well aware, we are going to die, my relation—and yours too—to the event of this text, which otherwise never quite makes it, our relation is that of a structurally posthumous necessity. Suppose, in that case, that I am not alone in my claim to know the idiomatic code (whose notion itself is already contradictory) of this event. What if somewhere, here or there, there are shares in this non-secret’s secret? Even so the scene would not be changed. The accomplices, as you are once again well aware, are also bound to die.”
