The word AMEN solemnly confirms that which went before; and Jesus is the great Confirmer; immutable, for ever is "the Amen" in all His promises. Sinner, I would comfort thee with this reflection. Jesus Christ said, "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." If you come to Him, He will say "Amen" in your soul; His promise shall be true to you. He said in the days of His flesh, "The bruised reed I will not break." O thou poor, broken, bruised heart, if thou comest to Him, He will say "Amen" to thee, and that shall be true in thy soul as in hundreds of cases in bygone years. Christian, is not this very comforting to thee also, that there is not a word which has gone out of the Saviour's lips which He has ever retracted? The words of Jesus shall stand when heaven and earth shall pass away. If thou gettest a hold of but half a promise, thou shalt find it true. Beware of him who is called "Clip-promise," who will destroy much of the comfort of God's word.
Jesus is Yea and Amen in all His offices. He was a Priest to pardon and cleanse once, He is Amen as Priest still. He was a King to rule and reign for His people, and to defend them with His mighty arm, He is an Amen King, the same still. He was a Prophet of old, to foretell good things to come, His lips are most sweet, and drop with honey still-He is an Amen Prophet. He is Amen as to the merit of His blood; He is Amen as to His righteousness. That sacred robe shall remain most fair and glorious when nature shall decay. He is Amen in every single title which He bears; your Husband, never seeking a divorce; your Friend, sticking closer than a brother; your Shepherd, with you in death's dark vale; your Help and your Deliverer; your Castle and your High Tower; the Horn of your strength, your confidence, your joy, your all in all, and your Yea and Amen in all.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Amen and a simple thank you for grounding me once more.
...wags tail humbly....
Thank you for this timely reminder.
...we all need them....
They (the early church) were so generous that they threw in their property into a common stock lest any should be in need. They were not communists, they were Christians; and the difference between a communist and a Christian is this—a communist says, “All yours is mine;” while a Christian says, “all mine is yours;” and that is a very different thing. The one is for getting, and the other for giving.
Thank you! So is the popular game Mine Craft Communist? It bothers me that you go into people's homes and take whatever you want. I think it is part of the brainwashing of the masses to accept Socialism/Communism.
I used to have a ton of CHS sermons saved that were preached by a guy with a Irish accent that I loved. To me he was the voice of CHS. Somehow I lost them. Most likely when a computer died or something.
I have searched sermonaudio.com, where I originally found them high and low, every single CHS sermon for this same speaker, and cannot find him. I have spent hours searching to no avail.

Hurrah! I found him, but unfortunately now all his Spurgeon sermons, all but two, are not free.
Here is one of the free ones I uploaded to my protondrive.
His sermons are delivered with a passion that one might imagine Spurgeon himself might has intoned. (Takes him a few minutes to get warmed up in above sermons)
Thanks. Close, it's an Irish like accent but this guy had a higher pitched voice.
I just spent another hour scouring the web for him, and i guess they removed all the sermons he delivered. I keep thinking that he sermons were from cloudaudio or something like that, but I swear I can't find even a trace of that.
Okay, I found a really good one that is from another non-pay site. This represents probably around three hours of tireless searching, but I finally found.
Please listen to this and you will agree that this is the quintessential Spurgeon voice, and delivery.
Plenary Absolution
This is the only speaker of Spurgeon sermons that give me the feeling of what it must have been like to hear Spurgeon in the flesh preach.
Amen!
Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name
As a clown fool in congress once recently said: “Amen, and Awomen.”

Thank you, AshlandDog for clearing that up and for all the truth you post! 😊
May God bless you richly....

Remember their mantra: never let a crisis go to waste…
Also remember their track record: if there is no crisis, hurry up and make one!
Thank you! Any idea what Clip-promise is?
"In his book The Holy War, John Bunyan made spiritual application of England’s clip coin problem. He invented a “notorious villain” named “clip-promise,” who weakened and debased God’s promises. Satan, of course, is the chief clip-promise and he has many servants occupied with this work throughout the world. Even the true believer can be an unwitting participant in this evil work by his attitude toward and neglect of God’s promises. Yea, I can clip the promises of God in my own life by unbelief and disobedience."

Spurgeon was one of the greatest ever. Dude was a theological beast that would wordsmith like no other.
Amen
"For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us." (1 Corinthians 1:20 NKJV)
"by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." (1 Peter 1:4 NKJV)
Charles Spurgeon was great. Even dispensational Baptists like him and quote him often until they read his "Calvinists" leanings. That's the problem with denominations and seminary learned pastors. They have their engrained belief system and they have to remain in that ride they were put in.
One of the other many great quotes of Spurgeon.
"Free Will doctrine - what does it? It magnifies man into God. It declares God's purposes a nullity, since they cannot be carried out unless men are willing.
It makes God's will a waiting servant to the will of man, and the whole covenant of Grace dependent on human action.
Denying election on the ground of injustice, it holds God to be a debtor to sinners."
Amen brother.
"If God would have painted a yellow stripe on the backs of the elect I would go around lifting shirts. But since He didn’t I must preach “whosoever will” and when “whatsoever” believes I know that he is one of the elect."
C.H. Spurgeon
Excellent. That being said with God all things are possible. Knowing salvation is in the hands of God, we must pray for others that they may be saved.
Amen and AMEN
The Amen originated from Egypt.
The God Amen-Ra (there are various spellings)
Ra is where we get the word sun RAY, or light, or Corona, crown of thorns, ultra light beam, third eye, etc
Jesus was the SUN of God, Ra, according to his own words.
He was the light if the world. He died for 3 days and rose again.
Now go rewatch "i pet goat ii"
Amen. 🙏🏻
The promises of God are yea and amen.
"Amen" is an indicator of infiltration and corruption. Amen-Ra is their sun god.
Better tell that to the apostles, cause according to that statement, THEY BE INFILTRATED. 🙄
Oh, and a lot of people in the OT, they're infiltrated too. Not just NASB, but KJV, NIV, NLT, oh and the original manuscripts. All infiltrated!
Sorry, had to have some fun at your expense.
But seriously though, no, amen is not an infiltration. At its core meaning it translates to, "let it be so."
Research is your friend fren.
So when they took the name of their sun god, they changed the meaning of "Amen" to "let it be". Or maybe the sun god was named "let it be" from the beginning. Because Amen-Ra was around long before "amen" was injected into any form of the bible.
Bible - By Baal?
Do you go to church on Sun-day? Ra's day.
Saturday? Saturn's day. Saturn, kronos, time, Satan, black cube worship.
Everyone upset about this subject should look inward. Why does questioning dogma cause such a defensive reaction?
