A Good Soldier of Jesus Christ - Charles Spurgeon (2 Timothy 2:2-3)

“A good soldier of Jesus Christ.” – 2 Timothy 2:2,3. Many people, many opinions. When it comes to defining what a Christian is, there have been numerous and diverse viewpoints. Some believe that a Christian is someone with very refined tastes. This person cannot worship unless they are in a place with perfectly Gothic architecture, or else their sensitive soul will be offended. They find it difficult to pray properly unless their devotions are accompanied by the finest music. Even then, they may not succeed unless they are assisted by gentlemen whose lineage can be traced as clearly as racehorses and whose clothing is tailored according to the latest ecclesiastical fashion guidelines for each season of the year. Delivered on a Sunday morning, June 26, 1870, By C. H. Spurgeon, At the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Newington. Please note: We've slightly revised sections of this sermon.
