Sermon #570 The First Five Disciples
Delivered On Sunday Morning, May 15, 1864,
By The Rev. C. H. Spurgeon,
At The Metropolitan Tabernacle, Newington.
“And The Two Disciples Heard Him Speak And They Followed Jesus. Then Jesus Turned And Saw Them Following And Said Unto Them, What Do You Seek? They Said Unto Him, Rabbi,
(Which Is To Say, Being Interpreted, Master), Where Do You Dwell?
He Said Unto Them, Come And See. They Came And Saw Where
He Dwelt And Abode With Him That Day For It Was About The
Tenth Hour. One Of The Two Which Heard John Speak And Followed Him Was Andrew,
Simon Peter’s Brother. He First Found His Own Brother, Simon, And Said Unto Him, We Have Found The Messiah, (Which Is, Being Interpreted, The Christ). And He Brought Him To Jesus. And When Jesus Beheld Him, He Said, You Are
Simon The Son Of Jona: You Shall Be Called Cephas, (Which Is By
Interpretation, A Stone). The Day Following Jesus Would Go Forth Into Galilee And Find Philip And Say Unto Him, Follow Me. Now Philip Was Of Bethsaida, The City Of Andrew And Peter. Philip Found Nathanael And Said Unto Him, We Have Found Him, Of Whom Moses In The Law And The Prophets, Did Write, Jesus Of Nazareth, The Son Of Joseph. And Nathanael Said Unto Him, Can There Any Good Thing Come Out Of Nazareth? Philip Said Unto Him, Come And See. Jesus Saw Nathanael Coming To Him And Said Of Him, Behold An Israelite, Indeed, In Whom Is No Guile. Nathanael Said Unto Him, Why Do You Know Me? Jesus
Answered And Said Unto Him, Before That Philip Called You, When You Were Under The Fig Tree, I Saw You. Nathanael Answered And Said Unto Him, Rabbi, You Are The Son Of God, You Are The King Of Israel. Jesus Answered And Said Unto Him,
Because I Said Unto You, I Saw You Under The Fig Tree, Do You Believe? You Shall See Greater Things Than These, And He Said Unto Him, Verily, Verily, I Say Unto You, Hereafter You Shall See Heaven Open And The Angels Of God Ascending
And Descending Upon The Son Of Man.”
John 1:37-51.
