"Good Cheer for Christmas" from C. H. Spurgeon

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892)

From The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit. A sermon delivered on Lord's-Day morning, December 20th, 1868.

"We have nearly arrived at the great merry-making season of the year. On Christmas-day we shall find all the world in England enjoying themselves with all the good cheer which they can afford. Servants of God, you who have the largest share in the person of him who was born at Bethlehem, I invite you to the best of all Christmas fare--to nobler food than makes the table groan--bread from heaven, food for your spirit. Behold, how rich and how abundant are the provisions which God has made for the high festival which he would have his servants keep, not now and then, but all the days of their lives!"

For more on "Spurgeon on Christmas", I found this article to be very interesting.
