The Greatest Fight in the World

By April 1891, when Spurgeon addressed the annual conference of the
Pastors' College for the last time, he was an experienced and battle-worn
soldier.



Spurgeon considered it the life-work of a pastor to be engaged in a
crusade against error and sin. He fully appreciated what it was to 'fight
the good fight of faith'. In The Greatest Fight in the World, this final
annual address to his fellow pastors and Pastors' College students,
Spurgeon offers practical advice on how to approach the battle. He does so
under three martial metaphors: Our Armoury (the Scriptures); Our Army (the
church); and Our Strength (the Holy Spirit).



The Greatest Fight in the World is a book for every pastor. It will
stimulate and inspire an approach to the pastoral task which is orderly and
intelligent, and which above all recognises and has confidence in the God from
whom the strength to engage in battle comes.
