More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
The angels must often be astonished at us and think we are the strangest creatures that well can be, yet they love us, and therefore they take a great interest in that Gospel that promotes our highest good.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not a matter of time so much as a matter of heart if you have the heart to pray, you will find the time.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Friendship is one of the sweetest joys of life. Many might have failed beneath the bitterness of their trial had they not found a friend.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would sooner be holy than happy if the two things could be divorced. Were it possible for a man always to sorrow and yet to be pure, I would choose the sorrow if I might win the purity, for to be free from the power of sin, to be made to love holiness, is true happiness.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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?

Fine music without devotion is but a splendid garment upon a corpse.

Image
A tear is enough water to float a desire to God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Jesus poured out his soul in life before he poured it out unto death
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no attribute of God more comforting to His children than the doctrine of Divine Sovereignty. Under the most adverse circumstances, in the most severe troubles, they believe that Sovereignty hath ordained their afflictions, that Sovereignty overrules them, and that Sovereignty will sanctify them all.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Let us measure ourselves by our Master, and not by our fellow-servants : then pride will be impossible.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
All good is born in prayer, and all good springs from it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is not land beneath the sun where there is an open Bible and a preached gospel, where a tyrant long can hold his place... Let the Bible be opened to be read by all men, and no tyrant can long rule in peace... The religion of Jesus makes men think, and to make men think is always dangerous to a despot's power.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Has there not been, sometimes, this temptation to do a great deal for Christ, but not to live a great deal with Christ?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You will win as many souls as God gives you, but no one will be converted by your own power.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We cannot play at preaching. We preach for eternity.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Satan does not care whether he drags you down to hell as a Calvinist or as an Arminian, so long as he can get you there.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that nothing happens apart from divine determination and decree. We shall never be able to escape from the doctrine of divine predestination - the doctrine that God has foreordained certain people unto eternal life.
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
