All of Grace is C.H. Spurgeon's easy-to-understand presentation of salvation through Christ’s grace alone. The title is a bit misleading because the word "of" was used differently in his day than it is today. A true modernization of the title would be "All by Grace", for that is the central message of this book.

It is not a quantification of grace ("all" as opposed to "some"), but rather a declaration of salvation's very source. Indeed, Spurgeon himself writes at the outset, "[I]t is not the object of this book to ask anything of you, but to tell you that salvation is all of grace, which means, free, gratis, for nothing." The book is based on Romans 5:20 - “Where sin abounded, grace did much more abound” - and is perhaps Spurgeon's most famous written work. It's also a great place to begin your acquaintance with this giant of the Christian faith.

Known as the “Prince of Preachers”, Spurgeon's messages transcended denominational lines. And they have also reached millions of spiritually hungry souls for generations since his death. This probably would not have surprised him in the least, since his expectations of the Holy Spirit were always extremely high. In the first line of All of Grace, Spurgeon writes, "He who spoke and wrote this message will be greatly disappointed if it does not lead many to the Lord Jesus." Yet, the source of his boldness and confidence was never belief in his own talents and abilities. On the contrary, it was his humble awareness of his own sin and need for Christ's indwelling Spirit which enabled him to minister so mightily to others. "[I] have myself been hunted by this wolf (temptation). A man might as well hope to fight a swarm of flies with a sword as to master his own thoughts when they are set on by the devil." (All of Grace)

We share Spurgeon's hopeful confidence that your listening of this book is but the first step on a path set before you by the Holy Spirit, leading back to Him. To that end, we have slightly modernized the text.
