Majesty in Misery

by Charles Haddon (C. H.) Spurgeon

In this the last of three volumes on the passion and death of our Lord, C. H. Spurgeon takes us to Calvary’s Mournful Mountain , there to view afresh the last moments of Christ’s earthly life. In these sermons (which have been completely reset in a readable modern format) Spurgeon fixes our eyes upon our glorious Saviour, whose amazing grace and dying love are eloquently described and vividly portrayed by ‘the prince of preachers’. As you read these sermons, including, The Procession of Sorrow, Christ’s Determination to Save His People, and Christ’s Dying Word for His Church , you will begin to understand just why Spurgeon was so loved by Christians the world over.
