SPURGEON ON PREACHING
It may be light work to you men of genius and learning; but to me it is life and death work. Often have I thought that I would rather take a whipping with a cat-�-nine-tails than preach again. How can I answer for it at the last great day unless I am faithful? “Who is sufficient for these things?” When I have felt the dread responsibility of souls that may be lost or saved by the word they hear… it made me wish that I had never ventured on so bold a life work. How shall I give an honorable account of my commission at last? By Charles Spurgeon, “Mediator-The Interpreter,” The Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit, vol. 35, pg. 416, (quoted by Kent & Barbara Hughes, Liberating Ministry from the Success Syndrome, pg. 182)
