More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
God never punishes his children in the sense of avenging justice. He chastens as a father does his child, but he never punishes his redeemed as a judge does a criminal. It is unjust to exact punishment from redeemed souls since Christ has been punished in their place. How shall the Lord punish twice for one offense?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Want of will causes paralysis of every faculty. In spiritual things man is utterly unable because resolvedly unwilling.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A prayerless church member is a hindrance. He is in the body like a rotting bone or a decayed tooth. Before long, since he does not contribute to the benefit of his brethren, he will become a danger and a sorrow to them. Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church.

Answering a student's question, 'Will the heathen who have not heard the Gospel be saved?' thus, 'It is more a question with me whether we, who have the Gospel and fail to give it to those who have not, can be saved.

There is no other salvation except that which begins and ends with grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Soul-serving requires a heart that beats hard against the ribs. It requires a soul full of the milk of human kindness. This is the sine qua non of success.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Some people, when they use the word 'salvation', understand nothing more by it than deliverance from hell and admittance into heaven. Now, that is not salvation: those two things are the effects of salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Trials teach us what we are.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we are indeed contending for truth and righteousness, let us not tarry till we have talent, or wealth, or any other form of visible power at our disposal but with such stones as we find in the brook, and with our own usual sling, let us run to meet the enemy.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I hope the doctrine that Christians ought to be gloomy will soon be driven out of the universe. There are no people in the world who have such a right to be happy, nor have such cause to be joyful as the saints of the living God.

Image
Mind your till, and till your mind.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whenever there is a cross to be carried by any of Christ’s followers, He always bears the heavy end on His own shoulders.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Repentance and desires after holiness never be separated.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer girds human weakness with divine strength, turns human folly into heavenly wisdom, and gives to troubled mortals the peace of God. We know not what prayer can do.

Image
The disciples of a patient Saviour should be patient themselves.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He is ready to cleanse you, It is sin, after all, that lies at the door and blocks you way to the Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There are few people who think what a solemn thing it is to be a Christian. I guess there is not a believer in the world who knows what a miracle it is to be kept a believer.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The faith which saves is not one single act done on a certain day: it is an act continued and persevered in throughout the life of man.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not the bigness of the words you utter, but the force with which you deliver them.
