Quotes by Pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834 - 1892)
"I am sure our Lord Jesus does not want his ministers to deliver magnificent orations, spread eagle sermons, with long elaborate sentences in them. He wants them to just come and talk as he talked, in all simplicity, so the very poorest and most illiterate of their hearers, may understand their meaning, embrace the truths of God they proclaim and find everlasting life in him of whom they speak (Source)"
