More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
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
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
My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what he has done, and in what he is doing for me.
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
We are all damaged goods in recovery.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Conflicts bring experience and experience brings that growth in Grace which is not to be attained by any other means!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would sooner be holy than happy if the two things could be divorced. Were it possible for a man always to sorrow and yet to be pure, I would choose the sorrow if I might win the purity, for to be free from the power of sin, to be made to love holiness, is true happiness.
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
To be forgiven is such sweetness that honey is tasteless in comparison with it. But yet there is one thing sweeter still, and that is to forgive. As it is more blessed to give than to receive, so to forgive rises a stage higher in experience than to be forgiven.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
As a church we must love Jesus, or else we have lost our reason for existence.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The distance between glorified spirits in heaven and militant saints on earth seems great but it is not so. We are not far from home-a moment will bring us there.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Lord Jesus is a deep sea of joy my soul shall dive therein, shall be swallowed up in the delights of his society.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Unbelief is the mother of vice it is the parent of sin and, therefore, I say it is a pestilent evil-a master sin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is dust enough on some of your Bibles to write 'damnation' with your fingers.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The worst evils of life are those which do not exist except in our imagination. If we had no troubles but real troubles, we should not have a tenth part of our present sorrows. We feel a thousand deaths in fearing one, but the (the Christian) cured of the disease of fearing.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Some people like to read so many [Bible] chapters every day. I would not dissuade them from the practice, but I would rather lay my soul asoak in half a dozen verses all day than rinse my hand in several chapters. Oh, to be bathed in a text of Scripture, and to let it be sucked up in your very soul, till it saturates your heart!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The demon of pride was born with us and it will not die one hour before us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We shall never see much change for the better in our churches in general till the prayer meeting occupies a higher place in the esteem of Christians.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Never lose heart in the power of the gospel. Do not believe that there exists any man, much less any race of men, for whom the gospel is not fitted.
