Our stronghold.

Our stronghold

‘The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.’

 Proverbs 18:10

Suggested Further Reading: 

Psalm 20:1–9

It is useless for me to attempt to describe the various ways in which your trials come; but I am sure they that know Jehovah’s name will put their trust in him. 

Perhaps your trial has been want, and then you have said,

 ‘His name is Jehovah-jireh, the Lord will provide;’ 

or else you have been banished from friends, but you have said, 

‘His name is Jehovah-shammah, the Lord is there;’ 

or else you have had a disturbance in your family; there has been war within, and war without, but you have run into your strong tower, for you have said, 

‘His name is Jehovah-shalom, the Lord send peace;’ 

or else the world has slandered you, and you yourself have been conscious of sin, but you have said, 

‘His name is Jehovah-tsidkenu, the Lord our righteousness,’

 and so you have gone there, and been safe; or else many have been your enemies; then his name has been 

‘Jehovah-nissi, the Lord my banner;’ 

and so he has been a strong tower to you. 

Defy, then brethren, in God’s strength, tribulations of every sort and size. 
Say with the poet,

‘There is a safe and secret place 

  The least and feeblest here may hide

Beneath the wings divine 

Uninjured and unawed.

Reserved for all the heirs of grace; 

While thousands fall on every side,

That refuge now is mine.

I rest secure in God.’

But, beloved, besides the trials of this life, we have the sins of the flesh, and what a tribulation these are; but the name of our God is our strong tower then. 

At certain seasons we are more than ordinarily conscious of our guilt; and I would give little for your piety, if you do not sometimes creep into a corner with the poor publican and say,

 ‘God be merciful to me a sinner.’

For meditation: 

The name of the Lord Jesus Christ is a strong tower: the unrighteous run into it, and are saved (Matthew 1:21; Acts 4:12; 10:43; 1 John 5:13). Have you ‘fled for refuge’ (Hebrews 6:18)? Are you ‘in Christ’?

Light at evening time

Light at evening time

“It shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.”

 Zechariah 14:7

Suggested Further Reading: 

Luke 24:13-21, 28-35

God very frequently acts in grace in such a manner that we can find a parallel in nature. For instance, God says, “… as the rain cometh down and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, … so shall my word be, …it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” 

We find him speaking concerning the coming of Christ, “He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.” 

We find him likening the covenant of grace to the covenant which he made with Noah concerning the seasons, and with man concerning the different revolutions of the year—“Seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”

 We find that the works of creation are very frequently the mirror of the works of grace, and that we can draw figures from the world of nature to illustrate the great acts of God in the world of his grace towards his people. 

But sometimes God oversteps nature. In nature after evening comes night. The sun has had its hours of journeying; the fiery steeds are weary; they must rest.

 Lo, they descend the azure steeps and plunge their burning fetlocks in the western sea, while night in her dark chariot follows at their heels. 

God, however, oversteps the rule of nature. He is pleased to send to his people times when the eye of reason expects to see no more day, but fears that the glorious landscape of God’s mercies will be shrouded in the darkness of his forgetfulness.

But instead, God overleaps nature, and declares that at evening time, instead of darkness there shall be light.

For meditation: 

The text has only ever been true on one occasion in a physical sense (Joshua 10:12-14), but God, to whom even the darkness is light (Psalm 139:12), is always repeating the event spiritually in the lives of his people.

The first sermon in the Metropolitan Tabernacle

ANTIGUA, GUATEMALA. 

The first sermon in the Metropolitan Tabernacle

‘And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and to preach Jesus Christ.’ 
Acts 5:42

Suggested Further Reading:

 2 Peter 2:1–3

He has, by one sacrifice, for ever put away sin. We shall never preach Christ unless we have a real atonement. There are certain people nowadays who are making the atonement a sort of compromise, and the next step is to make the atonement a display of what ought to have been, instead of the thing which should have been. 

Then, next, there are some who make it to be a mere picture, an exhibition, a shadow—a shadow, the substance of which they have not seen. 

And the day will come, in which in some churches the atonement shall be utterly denied, and yet men shall call themselves Christians, while they have broken themselves against the corner-stone of the entire system.

There is a limit to the charity of Christians, and there can be none whatever entertained to the man who is dishonest enough to occupy a Christian pulpit and to deny Christ. It is only in the Christian church that such a thing can be tolerated. 

I appeal to you. 

Was there ever known a Buddhist who denied the basic doctrine of his religion? 

Was there ever known a Muslim man who cried down the Prophet? 

It remains for Christian churches only to have in their midst men who can bear the name of Christian, while they slander the deity of him who is the Christian’s God, and speak lightly of the efficacy of his blood who is the Christian’s atonement.

For meditation: 

Do you get taken in by half-truths? What does the death of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross mean to you? It does, for instance, give us an example of how to suffer (1 Peter 2:21 ), but to major on that is to miss the point.
The essence of his death was that he bore our sins and their punishment in our place and for our deliverance (1 Peter 2:24). Have you thanked and trusted him to save you?

N.B. This was Spurgeon’s first sermon in the newly-built Metropolitan Tabernacle and in his Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit series.
