A Pilgrim’s Coffer (APC) is a Christian publisher with historical Particular Baptist convictions. We seek to reprint, update, and make available many wonderful resources, some of which have long been neglected, and failed to be updated to modern digital-age quality, of which the Church at-large would derive great benefit.
APC found its roots as a personal collection project circa 2019, and began publishing books in 2024. Prior to printing our first books, we started our venture into print media by producing monthly issues of The Pilgrim’s Digest. Our first book volumes to go to print were C.H. Spurgeon’s Exeter Hall Sermons, the first collection of published sermons by the ‘Prince of Preachers’ back in 1855, followed by the groundbreaking project of fully re-typsetting his 63-volume Pulpit sermons for the first time in history.
Our Mission is to produce high-quality volumes that often maintain much of their original character and/or aesthetics, while offering them with the clarity and print-quality that 21st century printing allows. We do not think that Christian material needs to necessarily forego the beauty and appreciation of attractive volumes for believers’ collections, and to remedy this we aim to make our flagship offerings ones that can adorn library shelves with great enjoyment for decades to come.
Who, when they know the fullness of God’s grace, can help but proclaim Him forevermore?
What is A Pilgrim’s Coffer?
People probably think of coffers as something akin to a personal money deposit box when they hear it these days; this isn’t too far from it’s origins. A coffer in earlier history was often a box or trunk of sorts that families used to lock and keep their valuables/family heirlooms in for safekeeping. When the ‘pilgrims’ and Puritans came to America, they, too, brought these locking coffers for storage—of which there still exist some early examples.
While this website doesn’t contain secrets or advice to make you wealthy with earthly riches, it does aim to share that which is invaluable for your soul. It exists to exalt and proclaim the glory and grace of our Creator through timeless and treasured theology that spans the ages. It is in aiming at this mark that we hope to reach and support others with the Christian truths found in Christ Jesus alone. May our content be a blessing and resource to those who stumble upon it!
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. [John 14:6]
May God bless you and guide you always,

Martin Luther
‘A Meditation on Christ’s Passion’
“The real and true work of Christ’s passion is to make man conformable to Christ, so that man’s conscience is tormented by his sins in like measure as Christ was pitiably tormented in body and soul by our sins.”
George Whitefield
‘The Extent & Reasonableness of Self-Denial’
“Whoever reads the gospel with a single eye, and sincere intentions, will find, that our blessed Lord took all opportunities of reminding his disciples that His Kingdom was not of this world; that His doctrine was a doctrine of the Cross; and that their professing themselves to be His followers, would call them to a constant state of voluntary suffering and self-denial.”
Charles Spurgeon
‘Christ is All’
“If Christ is not all to you He is nothing to you. He will never go into partnership as a part Saviour of men. If He be something He must be everything, and if He be not everything He is nothing to you.”
Martyn Lloyd-Jones
‘Studies in the Sermon on the Mount’
“If we believe that Jesus of Nazareth is the only begotten Son of God and that He came into this world and went to the cross of Calvary and died for our sins and rose again in order to justify us and to give us life anew and prepare us for heaven-if you really believe that, there is only one inevitable deduction, namely that He is entitled to the whole of our lives, without any limit whatsoever.”
Why do we need Saving?
In our natural, fallen state, we are unable to live righteously and obediently to God. Sin, being heinous and contradictory to God, is justly deserving of curse and wrath. We cannot redeem ourselves from this predicament.
God, in His supreme goodness, came to dwell among us and bear the Cross of condemnation for the sins of His people. In Christ Jesus, justified through His work of substitutionary atonement, and by faith alone, we receive His righteousness and become heirs to the Kingdom of God.
