More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Serve God with integrity, and if you achieve no success, at least no sin will lie upon your conscience.
Charles Spurgeon
In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.
Charles Spurgeon
There is a general kind of praying which fails for lack of precision. It is as if a regiment of soldiers should all fire off their guns anywhere. Possibly somebody would be killed, but the majority of the enemy would be missed.
Charles Spurgeon
But no thoughtful man's life is uninteresting or devoid of marvels. A sincere life cannot be empty of memorable occurrences.
Charles Spurgeon
I do not believe in an atonement which is admirably wide, but fatally ineffectual.
Charles Spurgeon
Defend the Bible? I'd sooner defend a lion. You don't defend the Bible you open its cage and let it roar.
Charles Spurgeon
The change is radical it gives us new natures, it makes us love what we hated and hate what we loved, it sets us in a new road it makes our habits different, it makes our thoughts different, it makes us different in private, and different in public.
Charles Spurgeon
Oh, for five hundred Elijahs, each one upon his Carmel , crying unto God, and we should soon have the clouds bursting into showers. Oh, for more prayer, more constant, incessant prayer! Then the blessing would rain upon us.
Charles Spurgeon
If you were God’s children you would loathe the very thought of the world’s evil joys, and your question would not be, “How far may we be like the world?” but your one cry would be, “How far can we get away from the world? How much can we come out from it?
Charles Spurgeon
I cannot agree with those who say that they have 'new truth' to teach. The two words seem to me to contradict each other that which is new is not true. It is the old that is true, for truth is as old as God himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Only he is fit to preach who cannot avoid preaching, who feels that woe is upon him unless he preach the gospel
Charles Spurgeon
This is faith, receiving the truth of Christ first knowing it to be true, and then acting upon that belief.
Charles Spurgeon
If any man will preach as he should preach, his work will take more out of him than any other labor under heaven.
Charles Spurgeon
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
You shall find books and sermons everywhere, in the land and in the sea, in the earth and in the skies, and you shall learn from every living beast, and bird, and fish, and insect, and from every useful or useless plant that springs from the ground.
Charles Spurgeon
Earnestness is good it means business. But fanaticism overdoes, and is consequently reactionary.
Charles Spurgeon
If you wish to know God, you must know his Word. If you wish to perceive His power, you must see how He works by his Word. If you wish to know His purpose before it comes to pass, you can only discover it by His Word.
Charles Spurgeon
A rejoicing heart soon makes a praising tongue.
Charles Spurgeon
Christ came to bring healing to those who are spiritually sick-you say that you are perfectly well, so you must go your own way and Christ will go in another direction-towar ds sinners.
Charles Spurgeon
A church in the land without the Spirit is rather a curse than a blessing. If you have not the Spirit of God, Christian worker, remember that you stand in somebody else's way you are a fruitless tree standing where a fruitful tree might grow.
