More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
Reply implicitly upon the old, old gospel. You need no other nets when you fish for men those your Master has given you are strong enough to hold the little ones. Spread these nets and no others, and you need not fear the fulfillment of His word, 'I will make you fishers of men.'
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Brethren, who are we that God should have been so good to us?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God works, and therefore we work God is with- us, and therefore we are with God, and stand on His side.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Without the Spirit of God, we can do nothing. We are as ships without wind. We are useless.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Carve your name on hearts, not on marble
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who is surety is never sure himself. Take advice, and never be security for more than you are quite willing to lose. Remember the word of the wise man: He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it and he that hateth suretyship is sure.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Christian's life should be one of thankfulness to God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not the bigness of the words you utter, but the force with which you deliver them.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When we believe that God hears us, it is but natural that we should be eager to hear Him. Only from Him can come the word which can speak peace to troubled spirits the voices of men are feeble in such a case, a plaster far too narrow for the sore but God's voice is power, He speaks and it is done, and hence when we hear Him our distress is ended.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Little learning and much pride come of hasty reading.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Lost! Lost! Lost! Better a whole world on fire than a soul lost! Better every star quenched and the skies a wreck than a single soul to be lost!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A father's holy life is a rich legacy for his sons.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Thankfulness makes much of little.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The law shows the distance that exists between God and man the Gospel bridges that awful chasm and brings the sinner across it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that every Christian ought to be joined to some visible church that is his plain duty, according to the Scriptures. God’s people are not dogs, else they might go about one by one but they are sheep, and therefore they should be in flocks.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is hardship in everything except eating pancakes.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We have come to a turning point in the road. If we turn to the right mayhap our children and our children's children will go that way but if we turn to the left, generations yet unborn will curse our names for having been unfaithful to God and to His Word.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man's words are mere breath, but the word of the Lord is spirit and life.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Hope sees a crown in reserve, mansions in readiness, and Jesus Himself preparing a place for us, and by the rapturous sight she sustains the soul under the sorrows of the hour.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is one of the best attested facts on record. There were so many witnesses to behold it, that if we do in the least degree receive the credibility of men's testimonies, we cannot and we dare not doubt that Jesus rose from the dead.
