It is foolish to try to live on past experience. It is very dangerous, if not a fatal habit, to judge ourselves to be safe because of something that we felt or did twenty years ago.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Let us measure ourselves by our Master, and not by our fellow-servants : then pride will be impossible.
Charles Spurgeon
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
Great thoughts of your sin alone will drive you to despair but great thoughts of Christ will pilot you into the haven of peace.
Charles Spurgeon
The best worship that we ever render to God is far from perfect. Our praises, how faint and feeble they are! Our prayers, how wandering, how wavering they are! When we get nearest to God, how far off we are! When we are most like Him, how greatly unlike Him we are!
Charles Spurgeon
All places are places of worship to a Christian. Wherever he is, he ought to be in a worshiping frame of mind.
Charles Spurgeon
Remember, Christ's scholars must study upon their knees.
Charles Spurgeon
You must keep all earthy treasures out of your heart, and let Christ be your treasure, and let Him have your heart.

Charles Spurgeon
That religion which costs a man nothing is usually worth nothing.
Charles Spurgeon
The vendors of flowers in the streets of London are wont to commend them to customers by crying: All a blowing and a growing. It would be no small praise to Christians if we could say as much for them.
Charles Spurgeon
Praying without fervency is like hunting with a dead dog.
Charles Spurgeon
No one knows who is listening, say nothing you would not wish put in the newspapers.
Charles Spurgeon
A sermon often does a man most good when it makes him most angry. Those people who walk down the aisles and say, I will never hear that man again, very often have an arrow rankling in their breast.
Charles Spurgeon
The most useful members of a church are usually those who would be doing harm if they were not doing good.
Charles Spurgeon
Don't just throw the seed at the people! Grind it into flour, bake it into bread, and slice it for them. And it wouldn't hurt to put a little honey on it
Charles Spurgeon
A child's cry touches a father's heart.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no other salvation except that which begins and ends with grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Too many people write their blessings in the sand but engrave their sorrows in marble
Charles Spurgeon
To be cast down is often the best thing that can happen to us.
Charles Spurgeon
