More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Men are in a restless pursuit after satisfaction and earthly things. They have no forethought for their eternal state, the present hour absorbs them. They turn to another and another of earth's broken cisterns, hoping to find water, where not a drop was ever discovered yet.
Charles Spurgeon
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
Our extremities are God's opportunities.
Charles Spurgeon
God's children are God's children anywhere and everywhere, and shall be even unto the end. Nothing can sever that sacred tie, or divide us from his heart.
Charles Spurgeon
If we give God service it must be because He gives us grace. We work for Him because He works in us.
Charles Spurgeon
The best way to live above all fear of death is to die every morning before you leave your bedroom.
Charles Spurgeon
The sovereign electing grace of God chooses us to repentance, to faith, and afterwards to holiness of living, to Christian service, to zeal, and to devotion.
Charles Spurgeon
He who does not long to know more of Christ, knows nothing of him yet.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer is not a hard requirement - it is the natural duty of a creature to its creator, the simplest homage that human need can pay to divine liberality.
Charles Spurgeon
Like Jonah, you may lose your gourd, but you cannot lose your God.
Charles Spurgeon
I am certain that to preach the wrath of God with a hard heart, a cold lip, a tearless eye, and an unfeeling spirit is to harden men, not benefit them.
Charles Spurgeon
A friend to everybody is often a friend to nobody, or else in his simplicity he robs his family to help strangers, and becomes brother to a beggar. There is wisdom in generosity, as in everything else.
Charles Spurgeon
I believe that many professing Christians are cold and uncomfortable because they are doing nothing for their Lord but if they actively served him, their blood would begin to circulate spiritually, and it would be well with them.
Charles Spurgeon
Satan always hates Christian fellowship it is his policy to keep Christians apart. Anything which can divide saints from one another he delights in. He attaches far more importance to godly intercourse than we do. Since union is strength, he does his best to promote separation.
Charles Spurgeon
Make the most of prayer. ... Prayer is the master-weapon. We should be wise if we used it more, and did so with a more specific purpose.
Charles Spurgeon
I know of no better thermometer to your spiritual temperature than this, the measure of the intensity of your prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
Trust in God alone, and lean not on the needs of human help. Be not surprised when friends fail you it is a failing world. Never reckon upon immutability in man: inconstancy you may reckon upon without fear of disappointment.
Charles Spurgeon
Fits of depression come over the most of us. Usually cheerful as we may be, we must at intervals be cast down. The strong are not always vigorous, the wise not always ready, the brave not always courageous, and the joyous not always happy.
Charles Spurgeon
Many a text [of Scripture] is written in a secret ink which must be held to the fire of adversity to make it visible.
Charles Spurgeon
Praying without fervency is like hunting with a dead dog.
