Quote

A soul-winner can do nothing without God. He must cast himself on the Invisible, or be a laughing-stock to the devil, who regards with utter disdain all who think to subdue human nature with mere words and arguments.

A church is a soul-saving company or it is nothing.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We say that Christ so died that He infallibly secured the salvation of a multitude that no man can number, who through Christ's death not only may be saved, but are saved, must be saved, and cannot by any possibility run the hazard of being anything but saved.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You cannot make a sinner into a saint by killing him. He who does not live as a saint here will never live as a saint hereafter.
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
You must either give up your sins or give up all hope of heaven.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Bread is a second cause the LORD Himself is the first source of our sustenance. He can work without the second cause as well as with it and we must not tie Him down to one mode of operation. Let us not be too eager after the visible, but let us look to the invisible God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you truly believe in Jesus, it is for life. Saving faith is a life-long act.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Affliction of itself does not sanctify any body, but the reverse. I believe in sanctified afflictions, but not in sanctifying afflictions.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A vile imagination, once indulged, gets the key of our minds, and can get in again very easily, whether we will or no, and can so return as to bring seven other spirits with it more wicked than itself and what may follow no one knows.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It's a good thing God chose me before I was born, because he surely would not have afterwards.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The best way to live above all fear of death is to die every morning before you leave your bedroom.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you speak of heaven, let your face light up...When you speak of hell well then, your everyday face will do.

Defend the Bible? I'd sooner defend a lion. You don't defend the Bible you open its cage and let it roar.
