More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.
Charles Spurgeon
If you cut him, (John Bunyan) he'd bleed Scripture!
Charles Spurgeon
Before you can teach children, you must get the silver key of kindness to unlock their hearts, and so secure their attention.

My brethren, do you believe in the Holy Ghost?...Have we such a reliance upon the Holy Ghost? Do we believe that, at this moment, He can clothe us with power, even as He did the apostles at Pentecost? Do we believe that, under our preaching, by His energy a thousand might be born in a day?
Charles Spurgeon
My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what he has done, and in what he is doing for me.

Charles Spurgeon
A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
Though you have changed a thousand times, He has not changed once.
Charles Spurgeon
He is not humanity deified. He is not Godhead humanized. He is God. He is man. He is all that God is, and all that man is as God created Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Some people, when they use the word 'salvation', understand nothing more by it than deliverance from hell and admittance into heaven. Now, that is not salvation: those two things are the effects of salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
Hope sees a crown in reserve, mansions in readiness, and Jesus Himself preparing a place for us, and by the rapturous sight she sustains the soul under the sorrows of the hour.
Charles Spurgeon
If you hear a man rail at the Bible, you can usually conclude that he never reads it.
Charles Spurgeon
Great faith must have great trials.
Charles Spurgeon
If we empty our hearts of self God will fill them with His love.
