Quote

You cannot make a sinner into a saint by killing him. He who does not live as a saint here will never live as a saint hereafter.

Image
I would sooner bring one sinner to Jesus Christ than unravel all the mysteries of the divine Word, for salvation is the one thing we are to live for.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You cannot have Christ, if you will not serve Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Let eloquence be flung to the dogs rather than souls be lost. What we want is to win souls. They are not won by flowery speeches.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Inconsistent professors are the greatest stumbling blocks to the spread of the cause of Christ!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The cry of a young raven is nothing but the natural cry of a creature, but your cry, if it be sincere, is the result of a work of grace in your heart.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we want revivals, we must revive our reverence for the Word of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The distance between the glorified spirits in heaven and the militant saints on earth seems great but it is not so. We are not far from home. Heaven... is just one sigh and we get there. Our departed friends are only in the upper room, as it were, of the same house they have not gone far off they are upstairs and we are down below.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of God's grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
From the descent of the Holy Spirit at the beginning we may learn something concerning His operations at the present time. Remember at the outset that whatever the Holy Spirit was at the first, He is that now, for as God, He remains forever the same-whatever He did then He is able to do still, for His power is by no means diminished.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Conversion is not, as some suppose, a violent opening of the heart by grace, in which will, reason and judgment are all ignored or crushed. The season is not blinded, but enlightened and the whole man is made to act with a glorious liberty which it never knew till it fell under the restraints of grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Men will never be great in theology until they are great in suffering.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Never try to live on the old manna, nor seek to find help in Egypt. All must come from Jesus or thou art undone forever. Old anointings will not suffice to impart unction to thy spirit thine head must have fresh oil poured upon it from the golden horn of the sanctuary, or it will cease from its glory.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't you know that day dawns after night, showers displace drought, and spring and summer follow winter? Then, have hope! Hope forever, for God will not fail you!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We venture to assert, that if there be any day in the year, of which we may be pretty sure that it was not the day on which the Savior was born, it is the 25th of December. Regarding not the day, let us, nevertheless, give thanks to God for the gift of His dear Son.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is foolish to try to live on past experience. It is very dangerous, if not a fatal habit, to judge ourselves to be safe because of something that we felt or did twenty years ago.
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
All the hope of our ministry lies in the Spirit of God operating on the spirits of men.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It seems to me that doubt is worse than trial. I had sooner suffer any affliction than be left to question the gospel or my own interest in it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nearness to God brings likeness to God. The more you see God the more of God will be seen in you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A child of God should be a visible beatitude for joy and happiness, and a living doxology for gratitude and adoration.
