More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
If we had to preach to thousands year after year, and never rescued but one soul, that one soul would be a full reward for all our labour, for a soul is of countless price.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Stale godliness is ungodliness. Let our religion be as warm, and constant, and natural as the flow of the blood in our veins. A living God must be served in a living way.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God has a way of giving by the cartloads to those who give away by shovelfuls.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There are few people who think what a solemn thing it is to be a Christian. I guess there is not a believer in the world who knows what a miracle it is to be kept a believer.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a reading age, a preaching age, a working age, but it is not a praying age.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nothing makes a man so virtuous as belief of the truth. A lying doctrine will soon beget a lying practice. A man cannot have an erroneous belief without by-and-by having an erroneous life. I believe the one thing naturally begets the other.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If the Lord's bearing our sin for us is not the gospel, I have no gospel to preach.

Home is the grandest of all institutions.

Repentance and desires after holiness never be separated.
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
An unholy church! It is useless to the world, and of no esteem among men. It is an abomination, hells laughter, heavens abhorrence. The worst evils which have ever come upon the world have been brought upon her by an unholy church.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You and your sins must separate or you and your God will never come together. No one sin may keep you they must all be given up, they must be brought out like Canaanite kings from the cave and be hanged up in the sun.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Do what you believe to be right, and ever hold it for a maxim, that if the skies fall through your doing right, honest men will survive the ruin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Some ministers would make good martyrs: they are so dry they would burn well.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you see a man with a great deal of religion displayed in his shop window, you may depend upon it he keeps a very small stock of it within.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God's mercy is so great that you may sooner drain the sea of its water, or deprive the sun of its light, or make space too narrow, than diminish the great mercy of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
An unkind heart is the worst. It is a plague to its possessor, and a torment to those around him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Our spiritual manhood in heaven will discard many things which we now count precious, as a full-grown man discards the treasures of his childhood.

Image
Jesus Christ does not save the worthy, but the unworthy. Your plea must not be righteousness but guilt
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You will never be saved against your will God drags nobody to heaven by the ears.
