More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Obedience is the highest practical courage.
Charles Spurgeon
A sermon without Christ as its beginning, middle, and end is a mistake in conception, a crime in execution.
Charles Spurgeon
If Christ were only a cistern we might soon exhaust his fullness but who can drain a fountain?
Charles Spurgeon
I do believe we slander Christ when we think we are to draw the people by something else but the preaching of Christ crucified.
Charles Spurgeon
A father's holy life is a rich legacy for his sons.
Charles Spurgeon
Repentance and faith are distasteful to the unregenerate they would sooner repeat a thousand formal prayers than shed a solitary tear of true repentance.
Charles Spurgeon
Depend upon it, since Satan could not kill the church by roaring at her like a lion, he is now trying to crush her by hugging her like a bear.
Charles Spurgeon
Too many people write their blessings in the sand but engrave their sorrows in marble
Charles Spurgeon
The worst evils of life are those which do not exist except in our imagination. If we had no troubles but real troubles, we should not have a tenth part of our present sorrows. We feel a thousand deaths in fearing one, but the (the Christian) cured of the disease of fearing.
Charles Spurgeon
The distance between the glorified spirits in heaven and the militant saints on earth seems great but it is not so. We are not far from home. Heaven... is just one sigh and we get there. Our departed friends are only in the upper room, as it were, of the same house they have not gone far off they are upstairs and we are down below.
Charles Spurgeon
...the power of prayer can never be overrated. They who cannot serve God by preaching need not regret. If a man can but pray he can do anything. He who knows how to overcome with God in prayer has Heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
The Christian's life should be one of thankfulness to God.
Charles Spurgeon
To me, Calvinism means the placing of the eternal God at the head of all things.
Charles Spurgeon
The business of the believer with his Bible open is to pray, 'Lord, give me the meaning and spirit of your word, while it lies open before me apply your word with power to my soul, threatening or promise, doctrine or precept, whatever it may be lead me into the soul and marrow of your word.'
Charles Spurgeon
Christ came to bring healing to those who are spiritually sick-you say that you are perfectly well, so you must go your own way and Christ will go in another direction-towar ds sinners.
Charles Spurgeon
You shall find books and sermons everywhere, in the land and in the sea, in the earth and in the skies, and you shall learn from every living beast, and bird, and fish, and insect, and from every useful or useless plant that springs from the ground.
Charles Spurgeon
Mi fe no descansa en lo que soy, o lo que seré, o como me siento, o lo que sé, sino en lo que Cristo és, en lo que él ha hecho, y en lo que él está haciendo en mí - My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me.
Charles Spurgeon
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
If you hear a man rail at the Bible, you can usually conclude that he never reads it.
Charles Spurgeon
I would rather teach one man to pray than ten men to preach.
Charles Spurgeon
