Image
Home is the grandest of all institutions.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't you know that day dawns after night, showers displace drought, and spring and summer follow winter? Then, have hope! Hope forever, for God will not fail you!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Repentance will not make you see Christ but to see Christ will give you repentance.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Be dogmatically true, obstinately holy, immovably honest, desperately kind, fixedly upright.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God requires of the sinner, dead in sin, that he should take the first step, then he requires just that which renders salvation as impossible under the gospel as it was under the law, since man is as unable to believe as he is to obey.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When we believe that God hears us, it is but natural that we should be eager to hear Him. Only from Him can come the word which can speak peace to troubled spirits the voices of men are feeble in such a case, a plaster far too narrow for the sore but God's voice is power, He speaks and it is done, and hence when we hear Him our distress is ended.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The glory of the salvation of souls belongs to God, and to Him alone.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is a general kind of praying which fails for lack of precision. It is as if a regiment of soldiers should all fire off their guns anywhere. Possibly somebody would be killed, but the majority of the enemy would be missed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no form of sinfulness to which you are addicted which Christ cannot remove.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Many books in my library are now behind and beneath me. They were good in their way once, and so were the clothes I wore when I was ten years old but I have outgrown them. Nobody ever outgrows Scripture the book widens and deepens with our years.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We must teach plainly that the faith which saves the soul is not a dead faith, but a faith which operates with purifying effect upon our entire nature, and produces in us fruits of righteousness to the praise and glory of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more you know about Christ, the less you will be satisfied with superficial views of Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Your sorrow itself shall be turned into joy. Not the sorrow to be taken away, and joy to be put in its place, but the very sorrow which now grieves you shall be turned into joy. God not only takes away the bitterness and gives sweetness in its place, but turns the bitterness into sweetness itself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you go through a trial, the sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which you lay your head.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If any man thinks ill of you, do not be angry with him, for you are worse than he thinks you to be.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The gospel is not for you who can save yourselves, but for those who are lost.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you see a man with a great deal of religion displayed in his shop window, you may depend upon it he keeps a very small stock of it within.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To a hungry man, Christ is very lovely when He has a loaf of bread in His hand.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Often doubts will prevail. What a mercy it is that it is not your hold of Christ that saves you, but His hold of you! What a sweet fact that it is not how you grasp His hand, but His grasp of yours that saves you.
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.
