Image
I would bear any affliction rather than be burdened with a guilty conscience.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
An unholy church! It is useless to the world, and of no esteem among men. It is an abomination, hells laughter, heavens abhorrence. The worst evils which have ever come upon the world have been brought upon her by an unholy church.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
You will never know God's strength until He has supported you in deep waters.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The preaching of Christ is the whip that flogs the devil. The preaching of Christ is the thunderbolt, the sound of which makes all hell shake.
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
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and thine own soul shall be refreshed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Do not wade far out into the dangerous sea of this world's comfort. Take the good that God provides you, but say of it, It passeth away for, indeed, it is but a temporary supply for a temporary need. Never suffer your goods to become your God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is our duty and our privilege to exhaust our lives for Jesus. We are not to be living specimens of men in fine preservation, but living sacrifices, whose lot is to be consumed
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Where God takes such pains to teach, we ought to be at pains to learn.
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
May every one of us believe Him better, and have greater thoughts of Him, and never let us be guilty henceforth of confining, as it were, within iron bonds the limitless One of Israel.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Reply implicitly upon the old, old gospel. You need no other nets when you fish for men those your Master has given you are strong enough to hold the little ones. Spread these nets and no others, and you need not fear the fulfillment of His word, 'I will make you fishers of men.'
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nothing makes a man so virtuous as belief of the truth. A lying doctrine will soon beget a lying practice. A man cannot have an erroneous belief without by-and-by having an erroneous life. I believe the one thing naturally begets the other.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To receive the Word in the ear is one thing, and to receive Jesus into your very soul is quite another.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The glory of the salvation of souls belongs to God, and to Him alone.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The religion of both Old and New Testaments is marked by fervent outspoken testimonies against evil. To speak smooth things in such a case may be sentimentalism, but it is not Christianity. It is a betrayal of the cause of truth and righteousness.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We are in a wrong state of mind if we are not in a thankful state of mind.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
People will not receive the balm of the gospel unless they know something of the wounds that sin has made.
