Steven Lawson: The Gospel Focus of Charles Spurgeon
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 сер 2015
- In this optional session, Steven Lawson shows that Spurgeon fearlessly taught the doctrines of grace and simultaneously held forth the free offer of salvation in Jesus Christ. He gives a passionate call for all Christians to follow Spurgeon in maintaining the proper balance between divine sovereignty in salvation and fiery passion in spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Incredible sermon! Many Blessings To Dr Lawson for preaching the TRUTH of the Word of God Charles Spurgeon was the Greatest!
14:15 What a summary of such a remarkable man of God.
Amen
Steve lawson, Great preacher , great sermons.👍☝️
Thank you for preaching the Bible with truth. I am so thankful for you, and others like you.
The Word, the Whole Word, and nothing but the Word... is Truth - the only Truth!
wonderful.. I pray that I too would feel a sense of urgency when witnessing to my unbelieving friends and family about the need of repentance and believing in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
wonderful overview of a great man of God who preached Christ in every sermon !
God is sovereign over life and death.
This was an absolutely excellent book. Thank you!
Enjoyed this so much...thank you...!
Love Charles Spurgeon preaching. Also love his study Bible on my phone.
17:40, on irresistable grace, reminds me of the psalm:
Thank the Lord, all ye heathens, laud him, all ye nations
For his grace has overcome us, and the truth of the Lord is eternal
Halleluya
Ok an actual translation I didn't make up on the spot from tye hebrew reads:
O praise the LORD, All ye nations: Praise him, all ye people.
For his merciful kindness is great toward us: And the truth of the LORD endureth for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
"merciful kindness" is from hebrew "chesed" whoch the king James typically translates as "Grace", the translation "is great toward us" displays arminian leanings since the hebrew word means "overcome"
Thanks for the wonderful message.
1 Timothy 2 v 4
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1 Corinthians 4 v 5
Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.
💯💯💯
Amen
TWO EDGE SWORD blessed
Very powerful sermon, thanks for posting - following Chesterton’s comment on original sin I think total depravity too is empirically true. What I disagree with is the selective outrage against Catholicism, at least today (I can’t comment on Spurgeon’s time) - I mean the woke pope is no prize but “mainline” Protestants are far worse - they have a Savior but no sin to be saved from, except gibberish like “transphobia” & “heteronormativity,” which really mean is that sin is no longer offending God but pleasing him
wow.
I read where spourgeon on occasion would give a word of knowledge to someone from the pulpit. I thought spourgeon was a cesstionist
I love Steve Lawson but he's off track, here in the beginning already. Whatever you think of Calvinism is beside the point right now. However, when you equate following the teaching of any man with evangelism of the Gospel, you're wrong.
Before you say follow him more to understand, I'll let you know that I do follow Bro Lawson a lot and have a deep appreciation for him.
AMERICAN PREACHER WAY BLESSED
I greatly admire Mr Lawson, but do not see why the need for equating the "doctrines of grace" with calvinism.
That is a good point! I understand that 'doctrine of grace" cam about as a label to escape the "Calvinism" brand.
What he said in minute 24 is that we shall preach the whole console of God wether it says come to Christ today or wether it says God brings you to Christ. It’s in the Bible and it has to go out to audience from pulpit.
My sentiments exactly
most of what is called the "church" today is not. If there were a Spurgeon today they would find a way to condemn him. They would find a "tickling" "cheap grace" message to drown out the truth that Spurgeon so well pointed to and lived. Don't be miss lead by the over use of "Calvinism", it's Christ we preach, believe, and this was true for Spurgeon and actually what S. Lawson was saying but it is too much put to Calvinism, for it there's anything about what Calvin taught, or any person it's Christ. Praise you Lord!
there is no such thing as the laity in the Christian Church. We're all a Royal priesthood, a Holy nation!
Let’s focus on Christ and not Spurgeon. Thanks
I had that sentiment initially, but I think that if you get the point of what is being said, then that sentiment is greatly diluted. The whole purpose of talking about Spurgeon is to give an example of a person that focused exclusively on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Spurgeon is not being presented as a great man, but as a man through which Christ did great things. The focus ultimately is still on Christ. Moreover, this is probably a conference, so it isn't a sermon or something like that. In the description of the video, it says it was an optional session. So, it was more of an informative conference presentation, rather than preaching, etc. Context is important. If he was explicitly preaching a sermon, and this was his sermon, then there would be a problem.
“Remember those who led you, who spoke the word of God to you; and considering the result of their conduct, imitate their faith.”
Hebrews 13:7
As Dr. Don Whitney says, "We honor them not for where they were wrong, but for where they were right.”
@Jesse amen I agree. This is a common trait amongst Calvinists they glorify man lots.
It’s a very man-centred religion.

I dont like the way He flaters. He did it with John macarther. God has raised up so many how would we know.. Just say we Aprciate Him
This is horrible! This false teacher is endorsing other false teachers and their lies and heresies!
Chill out both are good teachers
@@ichimpfdeinefreundinmitrie6053 you obviously wouldn't know a good teacher if you tripped over one!!!
Tell me what is the gospel according to the holy word of God!
@@ichimpfdeinefreundinmitrie6053 spurgeon became a pastor when he was still a kid! An unmarried kid!!! Are you aware of this heresy!!!
@@ichimpfdeinefreundinmitrie6053 a 17 year old unmarried infant is a pastor??? You don't see a problem with that!!!
