Lord’s Supper, a Means of Conversion – Charles Spurgeon

HOW often within these walls has God blessed the breaking of bread to the conversion of souls! Let me refresh the memories of such. Some of you have been looking on from these galleries; you dared not come down with the people of God, but you did not like to go away; and so you sat, and you looked on, and your mouths were watering, not for the bread and wine, but for Christ. You wanted him, and gradually you were like the robins in the cold winter’s days. You first, as it were, tapped at the church’s window-pane very gently, and you were afraid, and you stepped back again; but all the world was cold, and there was not a crumb for you. Then you saw the open window of a gracious promise, “Him that comes unto me I will in no wise cast out;” and, pressed by absolute necessity, you came to Jesus. You came into the family circle of Jesus Christ’s people, and you feasted, and you are glad tonight.
