Good News for You | Spurgeon Soul-Saving Classics | Luke

A soul-saving classic message by C H Spurgeon preached at the Metropolitan Tabernacle, London in 1862.

05:38 The sinner is without moral qualification for salvation
07:56 The biblical description of those Christ came to save
11:26 The Lord doesn't expect the sinner to do or be anything in order to meet him
16:44 The spirit and genius of the gospel
19:18 The unbeliever's ignorant excuse
19:42 How the Lord meets us just where we are
34:20 The danger of rejecting the call of salvation

'But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was.' (Luke 10:33)

Sermon extract: The Good Samaritan is a masterly picture of true benevolence. The Samaritan had no kinship with the wounded Jew, yet he pities his poor neighbour. The Jews cursed the Samaritans and would have no dealings with them for they were intruders in their land. There was nothing therefore in the object of the Samaritan's pity that could excite his national sympathies, but everything to arouse his prejudices. Hence, the grandeur of his benevolence. I want you only to notice this one fact. That the benevolence which the Samaritan exhibited towards this poor, wounded and half dead man was available benevolence.
