This is the last sermon Spurgeon preached at the Royal Music Hall in Surrey Gardens. Taking a line through the apostle Paul’s testimony to the Ephesian elders, he summarises the nature of gospel ministry, both feeling and communicating the weight of responsibility not only in those who preach, but also in those who hear. Without bombast, and feeling his great weakness, Spurgeon assures his hearers of his desire to preach the whole counsel of God, and—insofar as he has been enabled to do so—asks how they have responded. Every preacher and every hearer would do well to consider the same kinds of questions.
