Charles Spurgeon Index


     He [Charles Spurgeon] came to the old London church where Benjamin Keach was pastor thirty-two years, John Gill fifty-six years, John Rippon sixty-three years. He found a congregation of one hundred in a house whose seating capacity was one thousand and two hundred. In three months it was crowded, and in less than a year they had to enlarge it, while Mr. Spurgeon was filling Exeter Hall. The enlarged church was too small from the first sermon. They moved into Surrey Music Hall, seating seven thousand - and filled it to overflowing. - From B. H. Carroll sermon, "The Death of Spurgeon." Sermons and Life Sketch of B. H. Carroll, p. 29.

      Drs. Aldis, Angus and Maclaren, of England, have published a letter signed by all three, in which they say:
      "While we differ from Mr. Spurgeon in the step he has taken, we are as one with him in loyalty to Christ, in love for the Gospel, and in earnest longing of heart that it may be preached in simplicity, uncorruptness and power in pulpits of the land, with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; and we rejoice that, though he has withdrawn from the Union, we shall continue to enjoy fellowship and engage in service with him as members of the same denomination." - From The Christian Register, 1888, p. 80.
