In his introductory essay to this selection from the writing and
preaching of C.H. Spurgeon, Helmut Thielicke - himself among the
best preachers of the twentieth century - expresses his surprise
and delight at his discovery of the great Victorian preacher. He
draws out those qualities which made Spurgeon one of the most
influential ministers of his day, and explains what it was that
attracted him to the self-educated Baptist preacher. They share a
recognition of the urgency of their message: 'We stand in need of
the simple way in which Spurgeon dares to say that what really and
ultimately counts is to save sinners.' Warmth, immediacy and
directness are Spurgeon's hallmarks; qualities which Thielicke's
own remarkable sermons share but which he felt much preaching of
his day lacked. It is still a convincing testament to Spurgeon's
continuing vitality and relevance that Thielicke, one of the
greatest modern preachers, should say, 'Sell all that you have
...and buy Spurgeon.'
