The Crucifixion, by Charle's Spurgeon
Spurgeon Gold, compiled by Ray Comfort, Pg. 18
"Cowardice! cowardice! cowardice, craven, base lies at your door, O humanity! The Christ who was like a sheep - harmless and defenseless - was treated as if He had been one of the wild beasts of the forest. Who could have had the heart to smite Him who gave His bad to the smiters, and His cheeks to those who plucked off the hair? O humanity! If I stand at the bar to impeach you, I scarce know where to commence the indictment, and, having commenced it, I know not where to close it. How fallen, dishonored, infamous are you, O humanity! Low, depraved, heinous, indeed, have you become that you could put the Messiah Himself to death, and crucify the Lord of Glory."
A Plea to the Lost
by Charles Spurgeon
Spurgeon Gold, compiled by Ray Comfort
"A just God condemns the impenitent sinner, and just men assent to the Divine sentence. See then, O you ungodly ones that are present today, you often think our company a great nuisance, and perhaps while I am preaching, my alarming words annoy you. Ah, we shall not annoy you long. Does your mother tease you when she bids you seek the Lord? She will not tease you long. When I bring home the judgment to come, is the subject obnoxious to you? I shall not ask your patience long. We shall be separated; if you go your way and follow after sin and wrath, there will come a dividing time, and O let me say to you, you would give worlds if you had them; you would give them if they were solid diamonds, to hear again the voice that now fatigues you, and to listen once more to those plaintive invitations that vex you and spoil your mirth. Ah, how would you bless God if He would let you come back again and have once more those Sabbaths, which were so dull and dreary, and permit you to go up once more to the house of God, which perhaps is like a prison-house to your vain and frivolous spirits. O sirs, I say you may well have patience with us for a little time and bear with our importunities, for we shall not plague you much longer. We beseech you to come to Jesus; we would pluck you by your garments and beseech you to flee from the wrath to come. Forgive us for being thus in earnest, for even if we should fail with you, you will soon escape the importunities of our love."
