Expounding on Proverbs 11:30—"He that winneth souls is wise"—Charles Spurgeon begins this sermon with an encouraging word, “You can each of you, if grace enables you, be thus wise and win the happiness of turning souls to Christ through the Holy Spirit.” He goes on to shed light on the term “win” using several metaphors including warfare, wrestling, love, and finally the art of winning souls. Spurgeon next shows ways in which souls are won. He speaks first to preachers, urging them to believe in—and look for—instantaneous conversions and not to stray from the simple story of the cross. Lastly, addressing those who sit in the pews, he offers several practical suggestions including: bringing others to church, speaking to people one on one, writing letters, living the gospel, and praying.
