More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
So long as we are receivers of mercy, we must be givers of thanks.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True prayer is measured by weight, not by length
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The angels did not merely sin and lose heaven, but they passed beyond all other beings in sin and made themselves fit denizens for hell.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A man must have a stout digestion to feed upon some men's theology no sap, no sweetness, no life, but all stern accuracy, and fleshless definition. Proclaimed without tenderness, and argued without affection, the gospel from such men rather resembles a missile from a catapult than bread from a Father's hand.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who climbs above the cares of this world, and turns his face to his God, has found the sunny side of life.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Have you no wish for others to be saved? Then you're not saved yourself, be sure of that!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Praise is the rehearsal of our eternal song. By grace we learn to sing, and in glory we continue to sing. What will some of you do when you get to heaven, if you go on grumbling all the way? Do not hope to get to heaven in that style. But now begin to bless the name of the Lord.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Immanuel, God with us in our nature, in our sorrow, in our lifework, in our punishment, in our grave, and now with us, or rather we with Him, in resurrection, ascension, triumph, and Second Advent splendor.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
May gratitude to God permeate my entire life.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God is too good to be unkind, too wise to be mistaken and when you cannot trace His hand, you can trust His heart.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that every Christian ought to be joined to some visible church that is his plain duty, according to the Scriptures. God’s people are not dogs, else they might go about one by one but they are sheep, and therefore they should be in flocks.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
But no thoughtful man's life is uninteresting or devoid of marvels. A sincere life cannot be empty of memorable occurrences.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We are not responsible to God for the soul that are saved, but we are responsible for the Gospel that is preached, and for the way in which we preach it
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Do not try to make the gospel tasteful to carnal minds. Do not hide the offense of the cross, lest you make it of no effect.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whenever God means to make a man great, he always breaks him in pieces first.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a remarkable fact that all the heresies which have arisen in the Christian Church have had a decided tendency to dishonor God and to flatter man.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A man who does nothing never has time to do anything
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When it is the Lord’s work in which we rejoice, we need not be afraid of being too glad.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you cannot trust God for the temporal, how dare you trust him for the eternal?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You must be in fashion is the utterance of weak headed mortals.
