More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
It cannot be that there is a high appreciation of Jesus and a totally silent tongue about him
Charles Spurgeon
You might not always get what you want, but you always get what you expect.
Charles Spurgeon
The higher a man is in grace, the lower he will be in his own esteem.
Charles Spurgeon
A world where everything was easy would be a nursery for babies, but not at all a fit place for men.
Charles Spurgeon
So long as we are receivers of mercy, we must be givers of thanks.
Charles Spurgeon
It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it but to win souls is far nobler work. How is it that we so soon withdraw from it?
Charles Spurgeon
We live charmed lives if we are living in the center of God's will. All the attacks that Satan can hurl against us are not only powerless to harm us, but are turned into blessing on the way.
Charles Spurgeon
The disciples of a patient Saviour should be patient themselves.
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
The first link between my soul and Christ is not my goodness but my badness, not my merit but my misery, not my riches but my need.
Charles Spurgeon
If Christ has died for me, I cannot trifle with the evil that killed my best Friend.
Charles Spurgeon
God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart. When you are so weak that you cannot do much more than cry, you coin diamonds with both your eyes. The sweetest prayers God ever hears are the groans and sighs of those who have no hope in anything but his love.
Charles Spurgeon
If your faith does not make you pray, have nothing to do with it get rid of it, and God help thee to begin again.
Charles Spurgeon
One night alone in prayer might make us new men, changed from poverty of soul to spiritual wealth, from trembling to triumphing.
Charles Spurgeon
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer irrigates the fields of life with the waters which are stored up in the reservoirs of promise.
Charles Spurgeon
Music is at its best when it is pleasingly melancholic.
Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God, and the heart never comes into spiritual commerce with the ports of heaven until God the Holy Ghost puts wind into the sails and speeds the ship into its haven.
Charles Spurgeon
Not for yourself, O church, do you exist, any more than Christ existed for himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Sin is sovereign till sovereign grace dethrones it.
