Image
One might better try to sail the Atlantic in a paper boat, than try to get to heaven on good works.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Shall I give you yet another reason why you should pray? I have preached my very heart out. I could not say any more than I have said. Will not your prayers accomplish that which my preaching fails to do? Is it not likely that the Church has been putting forth its preaching hand but not its praying hand? Oh dear friends! Let us agonize in prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Too many think lightly of sin, and therefore think lightly of the Savior. He who has stood before his God, convicted and condemned, with the rope about his neck, is the man to weep for joy when he is pardoned, to hate the evil which has been forgiven him, and to live to the honor of the Redeemer by whose blood he has been cleansed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
They must be slain by the Law before they can be made alive by the gospel.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I find myself frequently depressed - perhaps more so than any other person here. And I find no better cure for that depression than to trust in the Lord with all my heart, and seek to realize afresh the power of the peace-speaking blood of Jesus, and His infinite love in dying upon the cross to put away all my transgressions.

Humility is to make a right estimate of one's self.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Jesus has borne the death penalty on our behalf. Behold the wonder! There He hang upon the cross!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nothing puts life into men like a dying Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whatever a man depends upon, whatever rules his mind, whatever governs his affections, whatever is the chief object of his delight, is his god.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You say, 'If I had a little more, I should be very satisfied.' You make a mistake. If you are not content with what you have, you would not be satisfied if it were doubled.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Rest time is not waste time. It is economy to gather fresh strength... It is wisdom to take occasional furlough. In the long run, we shall do more by sometimes doing less.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Leave Christ out? O my brethren, better leave the pulpit out altogether. If a man can preach one sermon without mentioning Christ’s name in it, it ought to be his last, certainly the last that any Christian ought to go to hear him preach.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You will win as many souls as God gives you, but no one will be converted by your own power.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less than God wishes
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Shall we keep men in a fool's paradise? Shall we lull them into soft slumbers from which they will awake in hell? Are we to become helpers of their damnation by our smooth speeches? In the name of God, we will not!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You may readily judge whether you are a child of God or a hypocrite by seeing in what direction your soul turns in seasons of severe trial. The hypocrite flies to the world and finds a sort of comfort there. But the child of God runs to his Father and expects consolation only from the Lord's hand.

Image
Live in such a way that men may recognize that you have been with Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it but to win souls is far nobler work. How is it that we so soon withdraw from it?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Is it not an amazing fact that while others leave us and forsake us, that God never does?
