Preachers often quote Spurgeon today because he had an ability to explain Christian truth to ordinary people with pointed, memorable statements. The people who heard and read his words were effectively taught theology and enjoyed it. He was a dogged defender of the Bible as God's truth. There was another side to Spurgeon's Character, he had a sensitive and loving nature that was the spur to him preaching the gospel, so that as many people as possible could hear the good news about why Jesus Christ came to spend time on earth, building a church for eternity. This also showed through in his warm pasturing of his congregation and the setting up of a college for future ministers of the gospel. Spurgeon realised that he could influence the church beyond his own lifetime if he could encourage future pastors to trust the Bible, love people and preach the truth fearlessly. To achieve this he collected his lectures to his college students and published this book. It has been a classic of pastoral theology ever since and is still used to train ministers to this day.

I have read this book carefully. I was contacted by the seller that he had spotted several notes that were not in the description. I decided to purchase the book anyway. It turns out that this book was from the personal library of the seller, a book that he used in preparation for the ministry. The notes were thorough and indeed priceless. I read and digested the matter contained in the text and notes, and after sitting through a sermon given by a young divinity student during our Pastor's absence ended up giving it to him. Even without the notes, Lectures to My Students written by the great Charles Haddon Spurgeon gives timeless advice to Pastors and would be Pastors. This book was a real treasure for all who are even interested in the ministry. The young man I gave the book to is bright well intentioned, but not ready for primetime. This book that he now owns will go a long way in preparing him for his calling. Any advice from Spurgeon, probably the finest preacher of his century is priceless and ageless.
