God is with us, and His power is around us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We want to assure you...that if you seek Him you will find Him. Jesus casts out none who come unto Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a reading age, a preaching age, a working age, but it is not a praying age.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True belief and true repentance are twins: it would be idle to attempt to say which is born first. All the spokes of a wheel move at once when the wheel moves, and so all the graces commence action when regeneration is wrought by the Holy Ghost. Repentance, however, there must be.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Our happy God should be worshiped by a happy people.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I am throwing all my good works overboard, and lashing myself to the plank of free grace for I hope to swim to glory on it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Your sorrow itself shall be turned into joy. Not the sorrow to be taken away, and joy to be put in its place, but the very sorrow which now grieves you shall be turned into joy. God not only takes away the bitterness and gives sweetness in its place, but turns the bitterness into sweetness itself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
O What A Freedom Is Thine! Freedom from Condemnation. Freedom to the Promises, Freedom to the Throne of Grace, and at last Freedom to Enter Heaven!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would not choose to go where I would be afraid to die, nor could I bear to live without a good hope for hereafter.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nobody ever outgrows Scripture the book widens and deepens with our years.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works and he that is without works is without faith.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a terribly easy matter to be a minister of the gospel and a vile hypocrite at the same time.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Persecution is the heirloom of the church, and the ensign of the elect.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Little learning and much pride come of hasty reading.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Men will never be great in theology until they are great in suffering.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Satisfaction with results will be the [death] knell of progress. No man is good who thinks that he cannot be better. He has no holiness who thinks that he is holy enough.
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
No life can surpass that of a man who quietly continues to serve God in the place where providence has placed him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A sinner can no more repent and believe without the Holy Spirit's aid than he can create a world.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To wash and dress a corpse is a far different thing from making it alive: Man can do the one--God alone can do the other.
