The Gospel Preaching of Charles Spurgeon
Looking at an Expositor’s Study

Tree-mendous Theology – Romans 11:22-24
Father, as we come now to look into Your Word, we ask that You would give us eyes to see the truth that is taught in Your Word.

The Pride Crusher – Romans 11:17-21
So, Father, as we come now to look into Your Word, we ask for the ministry of Your Holy Spirit to be powerfully at work within our minds, within our hearts, that He would grant us understanding of the passage and that our hearts would be greatly affected by what we study and what we see. I pray for these men as we have gathered here that You would just continue to take them on their journey as they walk by faith with You and follow Christ. And for all who are watching by way of live stream, I pray that You would meet personally with each and every person and that Your Word would come strongly to their hearts. So, Father, we commit ourselves to You. Use me now as an instrument, stimulate my mind and my heart so that I can be a faithful teacher. In Christ’s name. Amen.

Opposing Gnosticism: Irenaeus of Lyons
The Church Fathers decisively opposed the Gnostics through their writing and teaching. With zeal and determination, they sought to guard the one true way of salvation found in the fully human, yet fully divine, person of Jesus Christ and His finished work.

The Mystery of History – Romans 11:11-17
The Apostle Paul writes, “I say then, they did not stumble so as to fall, did they? May it never be! But by their transgression, salvation has come to the Gentiles to make them jealous. For if their transgression is riches for the world and their failure is riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their fulfillment be.”
