Around the wicket gate - Spurgeon - III - Chapter 4

Required reading
Around the wicket gate by C. H. Spurgeon (available from Amazon or free on the internet, here for example) - Read Chapter 4.

My summary
In Chapter Four Spurgeon explains that faith is not a hard thing, but a very simple thing: 'There is nothing about it to puzzle anyone, except that as everyone expects to be puzzled by it, many are quite bewildered when they find it to be so exceedingly simple.'

What grabbed me
I liked this line: 'Faith is so simple a matter that, whenever I try to explain it, I am very fearful lest I should cloud its simplicity.' 

The gospel is simple:  Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved.  Yet we regularly try to complicate it when explaining it to someone. 

Maybe we need to use the KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) principle in our evangelism.
