New! ACCC Responds to Pope's "Proper Church" Comment
New! ACCC Responds to "Bones of Christ" Claim
The American Council of Christian Churches is a
Fundamentalist multi-denominational organization whose
purposes are to provide information, encouragement,
and assistance to Bible-believing churches,
fellowships and individuals; to preserve our Christian
heritage through exposure of, opposition to, and
separation from doctrinal impurity and compromise in
current religious trends and movements; to protect
churches from religious and political restrictions,
subtle or obvious, that would hinder their ministries
for God; to promote obedience to the inerrant Word of
God.

Spurgeon's Morning · March 10 |
|
"In my prosperity I said I shall never be moved."
— Psalm 30:6 |
|
"Moab settled on his lees, he hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel." Give a man wealth; let his ships bring home continually rich freights; let the winds and waves appear to be his servants to bear his vessels across the bosom of the mighty deep; let his lands yield abundantly: let the weather be propitious to his crops; let uninterrupted success attend him; let him stand among men as a successful merchant; let him enjoy continued health; allow him with braced nerve and brilliant eye to march through the world, and live happily; give him the buoyant spirit; let him have the song perpetually on his lips; let his eye be ever sparkling with joy--and the natural consequence of such an easy state to any man, let him be the best Christian who ever breathed, will be presumption; even David said, "I shall never be moved;" and we are not better than David, nor half so good. Brother, beware of the smooth places of the way; if you are treading them, or if the way be rough, thank God for it. If God should always rock us in the cradle of prosperity; if we were always dandled on the knees of fortune; if we had not some stain on the alabaster pillar; if there were not a few clouds in the sky; if we had not some bitter drops in the wine of this life, we should become intoxicated with pleasure, we should dream "we stand;" and stand we should, but it would be upon a pinnacle; like the man asleep upon the mast, each moment we should be in jeopardy. We bless God, then, for our afflictions; we thank Him for our changes; we extol His name for losses of property; for we feel that had He not chastened us thus, we might have become too secure. Continued worldly prosperity is a fiery trial. "Afflictions, though they seem severe, In mercy oft are sent." |  |

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-92) was England's best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000—all in the days before electronic amplification.
