I believe that one reason why the church of God at this present moment has so little influence over the world is because the world has so much influence over the church.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
He is truly great in who hath power over himself.
Charles Spurgeon
If your faith does not make you pray, have nothing to do with it get rid of it, and God help thee to begin again.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who finds the ministry an easy life will also find that it will bring a hard death.
Charles Spurgeon
The love of Jesus is the source of salvation. He loves, he looks, he touches us, we live.
Charles Spurgeon
He who sings a song to Christ in the night, sings the best song in all the world for he sings from the heart.
Charles Spurgeon
It seems odd, that certain men who talk so much of what the Holy Spirit reveals to themselves, should think so little of what he has revealed to others.
Charles Spurgeon
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
In proportion as a church is holy, in that proportion will its testimony for Christ be powerful.
Charles Spurgeon
The grandest discourse ever delivered is an ostentatious failure if the doctrine of the grace of God be absent from it.
Charles Spurgeon
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
Good thoughts are blessed guests, and should be heartily welcomed, well fed, and much sought after. Like rose leaves, they give out a sweet smell if laid up in the jar of memory.
Charles Spurgeon
Before you can teach children, you must get the silver key of kindness to unlock their hearts, and so secure their attention.
Charles Spurgeon
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
Charles Spurgeon
You may readily judge whether you are a child of God or a hypocrite by seeing in what direction your soul turns in seasons of severe trial. The hypocrite flies to the world and finds a sort of comfort there. But the child of God runs to his Father and expects consolation only from the Lord's hand.
Charles Spurgeon
Never be afraid of the world's censure it's praise is much more to be dreaded.
Charles Spurgeon
I cannot agree with those who say that they have 'new truth' to teach. The two words seem to me to contradict each other that which is new is not true. It is the old that is true, for truth is as old as God himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Brethren, who are we that God should have been so good to us?
Charles Spurgeon
Our best performances are so stained with sin, that it is hard to know whether they are good works or bad works.
Charles Spurgeon
If God calls you to be a minister, don't stoop to becoming a king.
Charles Spurgeon
When God accepts a sinner, He is, in fact, only accepting Christ. He looks into the sinner's eyes, and He sees His own dear Son's image there, and He takes him in.
Charles Spurgeon
