“We can do without oratory and eloquence, but we cannot do without Christ crucified....May our pulpits ring with the name of Jesus; may Christ be lifted up, and his precious blood be the daily theme of the ministry.”
-Charles H. Spurgeon
@TylerHSmiley has written a great book about Spurgeon and the Holy Spirit, in our ‘Spurgeon’s Legacy’ series (edited by @geoffchang)

Regarding development of the "2 Books" language. CH Spurgeon spoke often of "book of nature" & that "The book of nature has three leaves, heaven, earth, and sea..." Maybe ref. to Act 14:15? I'm curious about historical development of "2 books" and "3 leaves" language. Resources?
@demyronhaynes Not sure how twitter showed me this... but I'm encouraged to know there are fellow ministers raising 3 boys. Great joys and lots of energy needed 😅
