Is it trustworthy?
God gives the following Scriptures to be followed to discern whether every spirit is to be believed or not.
Chapter 4
1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is of God: 3 and every spirit that confesseth not [doesn’t confess] that Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist,
whereof [of which] ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
Therefore, I hereby confess "Jesus Christ is come [is here] in the flesh!"

Chapter 1
Authorized (King James) Version
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God.

He was born of a virgin 2,026 years ago in Bethlehem of Judea
He’s alive today, and is coming soon to consummate the marriage with His espoused Bride; His Church.
Chapter 3
"16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,
believed on in the world, received up into glory."
You are invited to believe and receive the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior and Lord and to publicly confess this. He then acknowledges you then to His Father; The God of Abraham. Isaac and Jacob. You are also invited to follow Him in believer’s baptism.
Jesus came from Galilee to Jordan to be baptized by John the Baptist. But, John forbad [refused] Him and said, “I have need to be baptized of You and [yet] you are coming to me?” [for baptism] And Jesus answering him said, “Suffer it [Allow this]: to be so for thus it becometh [is perfectly fitting to fulfil all righteousness.” Matthew 3:15
Baptism is not required for salvation. Remember, Jesus said to the thief on the cross, who acknowledged Jesus’ innocence and said to him. “Remember me when you come into your kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Verily [Truly] I say to you, Today you shall be with me in paradise.” Luke 23:43
The act of Baptism pictures the Lord’s death and resurrection and His propitiation [forgiving all of the pennant sinner’s sins completely as if they never took place] and the believer’s death to self, and their atonement to walk in the newness of a born-again life.
This ordinance of Baptism was preached by John the Baptist. He preached that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand and exhorted Repentance from sin and the ordinance of Baptism to picture atonement. Therefore, while the ordinance of baptism is not required for salvation it is to be followed so as to fulfil all righteousness.
_______________________________________________
Worship The Lord Jesus Christ in Spirit and in truth.
The Truth of Such worship will manifest itself through fervent Prayer, Bible reading, study, meditation, and Hearing in Rightly dividing and heeding the gospel message of Jesus Christ [The Messiah]. Worship will bring God’s presence because he Inhabits the praises of his children in the singing of, sacred hymns and spiritual songs sung to Him, the LORD of LORDS and KING of KINGS.
We trust the Website: dailypurgeon.com will be encouraging and helpful.
It cannot however, take the place of in-person congregational worship with a local body of believers.
“Study to show yourself approved unto God, a worker that needs not be ashamed, rightly dividing [accurately comprehending and sharing ] the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15
Helping believers to become more fully devoted followers of The Lord Jesus Christ is our sincere desire. We trust Him for our salvation, guidance, strength and our eternal destiny. We will, in His almighty power, win souls through the instrumentalities He may inspire in us. We will invite and encourage non-believers to turn away from sin, look to Him and be saved.
Believers (old and new) will benefit in knowing He sustains, guides and builds us up as we are being conformed to the image of Christ Jesus by the power of the Holy Ghost.
DailySpurgeon.com is an Internet presence of devotional writings, prayers and encouragement from Charles Haddon Spurgeon. He rightly divides [preaches and teaches] God’s Word through Sermons delivered at The Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, with sacred congregational music of worship and praise to encourage and strengthen the elect to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ.
He is the most prolific writer ever, through his legacy of 140 books and the Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit Collection of 83 volumes of his Sermons and 500 hand written letters of personal correspondence weekly, He is the most prolific writer of all Time.

A SINNERS PRAYER August 3rd
PRAYER 1, August 3rd Part 4 of 7 HELP FROM ON HIGH.
Lord, sanctify us [set us apart and make us Holy for You]. Oh! that Thy spirit might come and saturate every faculty, [instrumentality] subdue every passion, and use every power of our nature for obedience to God. Come, Holy Spirit, we do know Thee; Thou hast [have] often overshadowed us. Come, more fully take possession of us. Standing now as we feel we are right up at the mercy seat our very highest prayer is for perfect holiness, complete consecration, entire cleansing from every evil.
Take our heart, our head, our hands, our feet, and use us all for Thee. Lord, take our substance, let us not hoard [stockpile] it for ourselves, nor spend it for ourselves. Take our talent, let us not try to educate ourselves that we may have the repute [reputation] of being wise, but let every gain of mental attainment be still that we may serve Thee better.
May every breath be for Thee; may every minute be spent for Thee. Help us to live while we live and while we are busy in the world as we must be, for we are called to it, may we sanctify the world for Thy service.
May we be lumps of salt in the midst of society. May our spirit and temper as well as our conversation be heavenly; may there be an influence about us that shall make the world the better before we leave it.
Lord, hear us in this thing [in Jesus name, Amen].

ANECDOTE 4: August 3rd AMBITION, TRUE GREATNESS.
byC.H. Spurgeon 1834-1892
I had a good friend who preserved the axle-tree [axle and wheel spindles] of the truck [hand cart] in which he wheeled home his goods when he first came to London.
It was placed over his front door, and he never blushed to tell how he came up from the country, worked hard, and made his way in the world. I like this a deal better than the affected gentility [gentlemen and lady folk] which forgets the lone half-crown which pined in solitude [all the money they had] when they entered this city.
They are indignant [offended] if you remind them of their poor old father in the country, for they have discovered that the family is very ancient and honorable; in fact, one of their ancestors came over with the Conqueror.
I have never felt any wish to be related to that set of vagabonds; but tastes differ, and there are some who think that they must be superior beings because they are descended from Norman freebooters [pirates].
“Nobodies” suddenly swell [puff up] as if they were everybody [something special].
Observe that Jacob does not say, "Years ago I was at home with my father Isaac, a man of large estate." Nor does he talk of his grandfather Abraham as a nobleman of an ancient family in Ur, of the Chaldees, who was entertained by monarchs.
No, he was not so silly as to boast of aristocracy and wealth, but he frankly owns his early poverty:
"With my staff, a poor, lonely, friendless man, I crossed this Jordan, and now I am become two bands [Judah and Israel]."
It humbles him to think of what he was, but at the same time it strengthens him in prayer; for in effect he pleads,
"Lord, hast thou made two bands [clans] of me that Esau may have the more to destroy ? Hast thou given me these children that they may fall by the sword?"
So again, I say, that which humbled also encouraged him:
he found his strength in prayer in those very things which furnished motives for lowliness.

FAITH’S CHECKBOOK August 3rd THE RIGHT TO HOLY THINGS
by C.H. Spurgeon
-But if the priest buy any soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat- Leviticus 22:11
-Mas el sacerdote, cuando comprare persona de su dinero, esta comerá de ella, y el nacido en su casa: estos comerán de su pan- Levítico 22:11
Strangers, sojourners, and servants upon hire were not to eat of holy things. It is so in spiritual matters still. But two classes were free [to eat] at the sacred table, those who were bought with the priest’s money, and those who were born into the priest’s house.
Bought and born, these were the two indisputable proofs of a right to holy things.
Bought. Our great High Priest has bought with a price all those who put their trust in Him. They are His absolute property — altogether the Lord’s. Not for what they are in themselves, but for their owner’s sake they are admitted into the same privileges which He Himself enjoys, and -they shall eat of his meat.- He has meat to eat which worldlings [the unredeemed] know not of. [But] -Because ye belong to Christ,- therefore shall ye share from your Lord.
Born. This an equally sure way to privilege; if born in the Priest’s house we take our place with the rest of the family. Regeneration makes us fellow-heirs, and of the same body; and, therefore, the peace, the joy, the glory, which the Father has given to [Jesus] Christ, [Jesus] Christ has given to us.
Redemption [purchase] and regeneration [birth] have given us a double claim to the divine permit of [right to] this promise.
Prayer: Thank You Lord, for the bought and born holy entitlements. Thank You that this promise comes by way of purchase or as our birthright. Help us to share fellowship and holy food [Your Holy Word] from You, Lord. Oh, for joy! The same privilege God has given to Jesus, Jesus gives to us.
What a blessing! This gift is ours not because of what we are in ourselves, but for our owner’s [The Savior’s] sake. Thank You Lord Jesus, Amen

MORNING August 3rd "THE LAMB IS THE LIGHT THEREOF. " —Revelation 21:23
—El cordero era su lumbrera —Apocalipsis 21:23
QUIETLY contemplate the Lamb as the light of heaven. Light in Scripture is the emblem of joy. The joy of the saints in heaven is comprised in this:
Jesus chose us, loved us, bought us, cleansed us, robed [clothed] us, kept us, glorified us: we are here entirely through [because of] the Lord Jesus.
Each one of these thoughts will be to them like a cluster of the grapes of Eshcol [of the highest quality].
Light is also the cause of beauty. Nought [nothing] of beauty is left when light is gone. Without light no radiance flashes from the sapphire [gem], no peaceful ray proceeds from the pearl; and thus,
all the beauty of the saints above [in heaven] comes from Jesus.
As planets, they reflect the light of the Sun of Righteousness; they live as [sun] beams proceeding from the central orb [the sun]. If He withdrew, they must [would] die; if His glory were veiled [hidden], their glory must [would] expire. Light is also the emblem of knowledge. In heaven our knowledge will be perfect, but the Lord Jesus Himself will be the fountain [source] of it.
Dark providences, never understood before, will then be clearly seen, and all that puzzles us now will become plain to us in the light of the Lamb. Oh, what unfoldings [revelation] there will be and what glorifying of the God of love!
Light also means manifestation. Light manifests. In this world it doth not yet appear what we shall be. God's people are a hidden people, but when Christ receives His people into heaven, He will touch them with the wand of His own love, and change them into the image of His manifested glory.
They were poor and wretched, but what a transformation! They were stained with sin, but one touch of His finger, and they are bright as the sun and clear as crystal.
Oh, what a manifestation! All this proceeds from the exalted Lamb.
Whatever there may be of effulgent [magnificent] splendor, Jesus shall be the center and soul of it all.
Oh, to be present and to see Him in His own light, the King of kings, and Lord of lords!
[Hallelujah!]

EVENING August 3rD "BUT AS HE WENT. " —Luke 8:42
—Y yendo, El —Lucas 8:42
JESUS is passing through the throng [crowd] to the house of Jairus, to raise the ruler's dead daughter; but He is so profuse in [full of] goodness that He works another miracle while upon the road.
While yet this rod of Aaron [Jesus Christ] bears the blossom of an unaccomplished wonder, it yields the ripe almonds of a perfect work of mercy. It is enough for us, if we have some one purpose, straightway to go and accomplish it; it were [would be] imprudent to expend our energies [getting distracted] by the way. Hastening to the rescue of a drowning friend, we cannot afford to exhaust our strength upon another in like danger. It is enough for a tree to yield one sort of fruit, and for a man to fulfill his own peculiar calling.
But our Master knows no limit of power or boundary of mission. He is so prolific [omnipresent] of grace, that like the sun which shines as it rolls onward in its orbit, His path is radiant with loving-kindness. He is a swift arrow of love, which not only reaches its ordained target, but perfumes the air through which it flies.
Virtue is ever more going out of Jesus, as sweet odors exhale from flowers; and it always will be emanating [coming] from Him, as water from a sparkling fountain. What delightful encouragement this truth affords [brings] us! If our Lord is so ready to heal the sick and bless the needy, then,
my soul, be not slow to put yourself in His way, that He may smile on you.
Be not slack in asking, if He be so abundant in bestowing [giving]. Give earnest heed to [Pay close attention to and hear] His word now, and at all times, that Jesus may speak through it [His word] to your heart.
Where He is to be found, there make your resort [make camp] that you may obtain His blessing.
When He is present to heal, may He not [Won’t He] heal you?
But surely He is present even now, for He always comes to hearts that need Him. And do you not [don’t you] need Him?
Ah, He knows how much!
You Son of David [Lord Jesus] , turn your eye and look on the distress [issue] which is now before You, and make Your suppliant [petitioner, Your Child] whole.
