In the Last Days Some Shall Depart from the Faith, by John Calvin (1509-1564)
The text for this sermon is I Timothy 4:1,2:

Quotes from Pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892):
"That old truth that Calvin preached, that Augustine preached, that Paul preached, is the truth that I must preach today, or else be false to my conscience and my God. I cannot shape the truth; I know of no such thing as paring off the rough edges of doctrine. John Knox's gospel is my gospel. That which thundered through Scotland must thunder through England again." (From Iain Murray's The Forgotten Spurgeon)

R.C. Sproul: All Christians Believe in Predestination
Here is a short excerpt from this sermon:
"The biblical doctrine of election [predestination] teaches that some people receive grace [mercy] and the rest receive justice. No one ever receives injustice from God."
Quotes from Pastor Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892):
"That old truth that Calvin preached, that Augustine preached, that Paul preached, is the truth that I must preach today, or else be false to my conscience and my God. I cannot shape the truth; I know of no such thing as paring off the rough edges of doctrine. John Knox's gospel is my gospel.
