Quote

God looketh upon any thing we say, or any thing we do, and if He seeth Christ in it, He accepteth it but if there be no Christ, He putteth it away as a foul thing.

Look to the cross, and hate your sin, for sin nailed your Well Beloved to the tree.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We have all heard the story of the man who preached so well and lived so badly, that when he was in the pulpit everybody said he ought never to come out again, and when he was out of it they all declared he never ought to enter it again.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If I knew I had 25 years left to live, I would spend 20 of them in preparation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Jesus has borne the death penalty on our behalf. Behold the wonder! There He hang upon the cross!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nobody ever outgrows Scripture the book widens and deepens with our years.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Doubts about the fundamentals of the gospel exist in certain churches, I am told, to a large extent. My dear friends, where there is a warm-hearted church, you do not hear of them. I never saw a fly light on a red-hot plate.

Image
Wash your face every morning in a bath of praise.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we want revivals, we must revive our reverence for the Word of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world. He is like a traveler in an inn, perfectly satisfied with the inn and its accommodation, considering it as an inn, but putting quite out of all consideration the idea of making it his home.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A world where everything was easy would be a nursery for babies, but not at all a fit place for men.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Thus there will be three effects of nearness to Jesus humility, happiness, and holiness.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I do not come into this pulpit hoping that perhaps somebody will of his own free will return to Christ. My hope lies in another quarter. I hope that my Master will lay hold of some of them and say, You are mine, and you shall be mine. I claim you for myself. My hope arises from the freeness of grace, and not from the freedom of the will.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
May we live here like strangers and make the world not a house, but an inn, in which we sup and lodge, expecting to be on our journey tomorrow.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I have heard of some good old woman in a cottage, who had nothing but a piece of bread and a little water, and lifting up her hands, she said, as a blessing, What! all this, and Christ too?

The worst forms of depression are cured when Holy Scripture is believed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more holy, the more humble.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Fits of depression come over the most of us. Usually cheerful as we may be, we must at intervals be cast down. The strong are not always vigorous, the wise not always ready, the brave not always courageous, and the joyous not always happy.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The gospel is not for you who can save yourselves, but for those who are lost.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He bequeaths us His manger, from which to learn how God came down to man, and His cross to teach us how man may go up to God.
