from Spurgeon’s,"WHAT GOD CANNOT DO!" Truth once reigned supreme upon our globe, and then earth was Paradise. Man knew no sorrow while he was ignorant of falsehood.

Spurgeon, "The Voice of the Cholera" "When disaster comes to a city, has not the Lord caused it?" Amos 3:6 When cholera comes to a city, has not the Lord caused it?

by Spurgeon "To treat revelation as if it were a football to be kicked from man to man is irreverence."

Electing love has selected some of the worst of men to be made the best. Pebbles of the brook Grace turn into jewels for the Savior's crown. Worthless dross he transforms into pure gold.

Spurgeon- "The Incarnation and Birth of Christ" Oh! we love the sublime doctrine of eternal absolute predestination.
