WORDS OF COUNSEL AND WARNING: A 21st Century Update of a Timeless Classic
About this ebook
Words of Counsel and Warning confronts the difference between outward religious profession and a life truly governed by Jesus Christ. With direct biblical reasoning, this updated classic calls readers to examine their faith, motives, conduct, speech, relationships, and spiritual priorities in the light of Jehovah’s inspired Word.
The chapters address the danger of hypocrisy, the meaning of genuine repentance, the marks of living faith, the subtle process of spiritual drift, and Jesus’ warning that merely calling Him “Lord” does not replace obedience. Yet this is not a message of hopeless condemnation. It shows how the repentant believer can rely upon Christ’s atoning sacrifice, correct a wrong course, rebuild spiritual strength, and continue faithfully on the path leading to eternal life.
Written for Christians who desire honest self-examination rather than shallow reassurance, this volume combines serious warning with practical counsel. It challenges complacency, exposes false confidence, strengthens humble assurance, and encourages wholehearted discipleship.
These pages ask every reader one unavoidable question: Does my present way of life demonstrate that Jesus Christ is truly my Lord?

About the author
Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834–1892) was one of the most influential Christian preachers of the nineteenth century. Known as the “Prince of Preachers,” he pastored the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, where thousands gathered weekly to hear his powerful, Scripture-centered sermons. A gifted expositor, prolific author, and passionate soul-winner, Spurgeon devoted his life to proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ and training others for faithful Christian service. His sermons, lectures, and books have shaped generations of pastors, teachers, evangelists, and lay believers. Among his many enduring works, The Soul Winner remains one of his most practical and stirring calls for Christians to reach the lost with courage, clarity, and compassion.
