Spurgeon’s Sermon on 1 Samuel 15:22: “Obedience Better Than Sacrifice” (http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols10-12/chs686.pdf)

Hannah:
- It’s good to remember that obedience is better than sacrifice. Even if you’re giving money to missionaries, that’s good, but we are commanded to share the gospel…[Read more]

Who are the elect? – 1 Sam 16:12

http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols10-12/chs638.pdf

Thanks for the great discussion last night. I was reading 2 Corinthians this morning and these verses struck me.

10 He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, 11 as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the…[Read more]

Treehouse Homegroup Meeting – 1 Samuel 13-14

Mom/Kristin – Spurgeon Sermon – “Samuel: An Example of Intercession” (1 Sam 12:23) http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols25-27/chs1537.pdf
1 Samuel 12:23: “Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD by ceasing to pray for you, and I will instruct you in the good and the…[Read more]

Spurgeon does not have any sermons on 1 Samuel 13 or 1 Samuel 14. But the sermon on 1 Sam 12 on Intercesssion is fantastic. If you didn’t get a chance to read it for last time, I would highly recommend it. Hopefully, we can talk about it some tonight.

Treehouse Homegroup Meeting – 1 Samuel 10-13

Chapter 10
Karina – Spurgeon’s Sermon – “Hiding Among the Stuff” (http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols58-60/chs3322.pdf)
Spurgeon says – May we not assume wrongdoing on Saul’s part, instead let’s assume it was “mock modesty.”
Saul’s actions after he became king were wise – made peace with men…[Read more]

FYI, the sermon Harvest Time by Spurgeon has nothing to do with 1 Sam 12 except the connection to harvest. But there is the exposition at the end.

Also, there is an exposition of Psalm 120 at the end of Spurgeon’s Sermon, ”Hiding Among the Stuff” and there is an exposition of 1 Samuel 12 at the end of Spurgeon’s Sermon, ”Harvest Time.”

There are three sermons of Spurgeon’s between 1 Samuel 10-13. Here they are:

Hiding Among the Stuff (1 Sam 10:22-23)

http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols58-60/chs3322.pdf

Harvest Time (1 Sam 12:17) (This is the first sermon of Spurgeon to be printed.)

Treehouse Homegroup Meeting – 1 Samuel 8-9

Chapter 8

Karina – It jumped to Samuel as an old man. It’s a reminder of how unimportant our lives are sometimes. His life’s work was summed up in a few verses.

Dad/Mark – Seems like his life was filled with disappointment. 20 years on his circuit – and what was the result? They rejected God and…[Read more]

Also, at the end of the Looking for One Thing and Finding Another, Spurgeon has an exposition of the whole chapter of 1 Samuel 9.

Here are some Spurgeon sermons on 1 Samuel 8-9:

Looking for One Thing and Finding Another (1 Sam 9:3, 20)

Treehouse Homegroup Meeting – 1 Samuel 5-7

Chapter 5

Spurgeon’s Sermon on 1 Samuel 5:2-4 – “Dagon’s Ups and Downs”

http://www.spurgeongems.org/vols22-24/chs1342.pdf

The Ark was safe when protected by priests. It was captured when it was protected by an army. Then when in enemy’s hands, it was safe. In relation to God’s word, it is…[Read more]

Treehouse Homegroup Meeting – 1 Samuel 4

Samson, Jephthah and Eli possibly ruled at the same time. (v. 9 supports this because the Philistines treated the Israelites as slaves.)

Spurgeon Sermons:
The Form and Spirit of Religion 1 Samuel 4:3
Is God in the Camp? 1 Samuel 4:7

Hannah: “The Form and Spirit of Religion” 1 Samuel 4:3
The Israelites…[Read more]

Treehouse Homegroup Meeting 2 – 1 Samuel 2

Hannah’s Prayer
Karina: It seems that verse 5 is referring to Eli’s sons – “Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,
but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger.”
Dad: ESV study Bible – don’t agree with everything, says it is not talking about Peninnah
Hannah: Some people have…[Read more]

I am going to try and read the sermons, ”Kings Weighings” and ”Speak Lord” before tonight. If you are trying to decide which ones to read, you might want to pick different ones so that we can have more resources at the table. Or you can read the same too!

Here are some Spurgeon sermons that go along with 1 Samuel 2-3. There are a lot!

1Sa 2:3 King’s Weighings, The 1736 1883 457
