Image
The Providence of God is the great protector of our life and usefulness, and under the divine care we are perfectly safe from danger.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is foolish to try to live on past experience. It is very dangerous, if not a fatal habit, to judge ourselves to be safe because of something that we felt or did twenty years ago.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Great faith must have great trials.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In all of my years of service to my Lord, I have discovered a truth that has never failed and has never been compromised. That truth is that it is beyond the realm of possibilities that one has the ability to out-give God. Even if I give the whole of my worth to Him, He will find a way to give back to me much more than I gave.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more holy, the more humble.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Anything which you have in this world, which you do not consecrate to Christ's cause, you do rob the Lord of.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not humility to underrate yourself. Humility is to think of yourself as God thinks of you. It is to feel that if we have talents God has given them to us. And let it be seen that, like freight in a vessel, they tend to sink us low. The more we have, the lower we ought to lie.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
And I will go as far as Martin Luther, in that strong assertion of his, where he says, If any man ascribes any of salvation, even the very least, to the free-will of man, he knows nothing of grace, and he has not learned Jesus Christ aright.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You will never know God's strength until He has supported you in deep waters.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A sheep in the midst of wolves is safe compared with the Christian in the midst of ungodly men.
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
Christians are not so much in danger when they are persecuted as when they are admired.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The pleasures arising from a right understanding of the divine testimonies are of the most delightful order earthly enjoyments are utterly contemptible if compared with them. The sweetest joys, yea, the sweetest of the sweetest falls to his portion who has God's truth to be his heritage.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There are some things that can be learned by the head, but Christ crucified can only be learned by the heart
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Puritans were accustomed to explain faith by the word 'recumbency.' It meant leaning upon a thing. Lean with all your weight upon Christ. It would be a better illustration still if I said, fall at full length, and lie on the Rock of Ages.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Our best performances are so stained with sin, that it is hard to know whether they are good works or bad works.
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
Whether we like it or not, asking is the rule of the Kingdom. If you may have everything by asking in His Name, and nothing without asking, I beg you to see how absolutely vital prayer is.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Not for yourself, O church, do you exist, any more than Christ existed for himself.
Charles Spurgeon
