Possibly The Most Penetrating....Maybe The Most Clear....And Certainly The Most Urgent....Evangelistic Sermon That I Have Ever Heard

The following was first posted in June of 2023:

             Home from vacation....with a couple of days of yard work waiting for me....I just had to stop midway this morning to give you this post. Listening to sermons as I cut grass and do other tasks....as I always do....from either....men from the past....or men today who preach like men from the past....I stumbled across this morning possible the most wonderful evangelistic message that I have ever heard.
             The sermon was preached by Charles Spurgeon on a Lord's Day evening on May 10, 1891. Spurgeon had less than nine months to live. Well let me give you the sermon title....you simply have to Google it....An Urgent Quest For An Immediate Answer. I understand so well where Spurgeon was coming from in this sermon. He had preached the gospel for
 four decades....most of it in the heart of London....and he...as it were...was upping the ante....and demanding an answer right then as to whether his unconverted hearer would be converted.
              I have found myself in these posts becoming more and more urgent as time goes by. Either believe or don't believe....either become serious in your faith....or admit that you will not become serious in your faith.
              Spurgeon will not let you go away unchallenged in this sermon. Settle it now friends. Why waste your time in hesitation that is only sinking you deeper in unbelief....and taking the precious time of ministers and Christians who try to throw you a rope out of the judgment that you will come to....where you will no longer be able to put things off.
