Spurgeon, C.H. - The Gospel of the Kingdom (1893) - 1st Edition
A Popular Exposition of the Gospel according to Matthew
The Gospel of the Kingdom was the work at hand during the passing of the venerable Charles Spurgeon. Much having been accomplished in the prior two winters in the south of France—in Mentone, with its soothing Mediterranean climate—, this was the work that was on the heart of Spurgeon to complete at the time of his death.
Mrs. Spurgeon said of the volume: “It stands alone in its sacred and sorrowful significance. It is the tired worker's final labour of love for his Lord. It is the last sweet song from lips that were ever sounding forth the praises of his King. It is the dying shout of victory from the standard-bearer who bore his Captain's colours unflinchingly through the thickest of the fight… Much of the later portion of the work was written on the very borderland of Heaven, amid the nearing glories of the unseen world and almost within sight of the Golden Gates.”
