I listen to this every morning, it is an amazing podcast the recreates #CharlesSpurgeon sermons. A few years back I was wise enough to invest in all of Spurgeon's sermons in one big collection in my Olive Tree Bible software so I am able to read and follow along. This sermon is one of the most powerful ones I have heard and well worth spending 45 minutes with today... this quote from it is so applicable to the world today:
"There is a certain form of doctrine which we believe to be Scriptural, and if any members deviate from it, their first duty is to leave the Church when they can no longer agree with its belief. As long as I am pastor I shall have no controversy about doctrines which are our settled basis of association, but shall bid those who differ go where they can hold their own views in peace. If this should not prove successful, our duty will be to follow peace by extirpating the root of bitterness, and putting the Jonah overboard. Such a case never has occurred, and by God’s Grace I trust never will. But if it should, the Church must not hesitate."
