Dark Sayings of Old #7: Charles Spurgeon, Exposition on 1 John 3:1-10
"Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not." 1 John 3:1
In his Exposition on 1 John 3:1-10, Charles Spurgeon discusses what it means to be children of God. He also reveals how we can be righteous.

Dark Sayings of Old #6: Alexander Maclaren, Christ Our Passover
"These things were done, that the Scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of Him shall not be broken."âJOHN xix. 36.
In two weeks, we'll celebrate Independence Day here in the United States. We'll shoot fireworks and have gatherings in honor of our freedom from Britain. Israel celebrated its own independence each year in the Passover festival. In the original Passover, Israel was delivered from circumstances more hopeless than the American colonies', and God did all the work to deliver them.
Christians see an independence yet more amazing than either of these, as Alexander Maclaren observes in "Christ Our Passover", an excerpt from Expositions of Holy Scripture: St John Chs. XV to XXI.

Dark Sayings of Old #4: Hugh Latimer, The Sixth Sermon preached before King Edward, April twelfth, 1549
Hugh Latimer preached during the English Reformation. Despite the early year and somewhat archaic language of The Sixth Sermon preached before King Edward, April twelfth, 1549, certain aspects of the sermon are very familiar.
Latimer tells jokes, runs off on tangents, and tells his listeners at least twice that he's concluding. He also speaks of the need to be born again, and he speaks against the prevailing moral ills of his time. In all these respects, I might almost have been reading a transcript of one of my own pastor's talks from right here in 21st century America.

About Dark Sayings of Old
Dark Sayings of Old is a podcast dedicated to the sermons and works of Christian preachers and teachers from history. The schedule will be semi-monthly. Occasionally, though, an episode might be split due to length considerations, and the portions may be released in between scheduled shows.
Generally, the text of any sermon featured here will be in the public
domain. I should point out any exceptions in the show notes, although
I don't currently plan any. I own the copyright to the audio
recordings, as well as the text of any introductory or closing
remarks. Unless otherwise indicated, the recordings are released under
a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License.
For more information about the show and the name, listen to the first episode.
Ignore this line. It's only here so My Odeo Channel (odeo/52177fad4124362f) works correctly

Dark Sayings of Old #3: Jonathan Edwards, The Excellency of Christ - Part 1
Jonathan Edwards is best remembered for terrifying descriptions of hell and of God's judgment, such as Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God. However, he taught far more than that single subject.
Today's sermon, The Excellency of Christ, reveals Edwards' passion for deep study and application of the Bible.
Running time: 00:31:23
The recording was unexpectedly long. Although the introduction and closing don't hint at this, this show is only part one of three.
