We are not responsible to God for the soul that are saved, but we are responsible for the Gospel that is preached, and for the way in which we preach it
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would not give much for your religion unless it can be seen. Lamps do not talk, but they do shine.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To believe a thing is to see the cool crystal water sparkling in the cup. But to meditate on it is to drink of it. Reading gathers the clusters contemplation squeezes forth their generous juice.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You must be in fashion is the utterance of weak headed mortals.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that every Christian ought to be joined to some visible church that is his plain duty, according to the Scriptures. God’s people are not dogs, else they might go about one by one but they are sheep, and therefore they should be in flocks.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Christian's life should be one of thankfulness to God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer is the forerunner of mercy. Turn to sacred history, and you will find that scarecely ever did a great mercy come to this world unheralded by supplication.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The church may go through her dark ages, but Christ is with her in the midnight she may pass through her fiery furnace, but Christ is in the midst of the flame with her.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You need not bring life to the scripture. You should draw life from the scripture.
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
Stale godliness is ungodliness. Let our religion be as warm, and constant, and natural as the flow of the blood in our veins. A living God must be served in a living way.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The petitions of Moses discomfited the enemy more than the fighting of Joshua. Yet both were needed. No, in the soul's conflict, force and fervor, decision and devotion, valour and vehemence, must join their forces, and all will be well.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Life is short and we have scarcely begun to live when we are called to die.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You will never know God's strength until He has supported you in deep waters.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sometimes we think we are too busy to pray. That is a great mistake, for praying is a saving of time.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We venture to assert, that if there be any day in the year, of which we may be pretty sure that it was not the day on which the Savior was born, it is the 25th of December. Regarding not the day, let us, nevertheless, give thanks to God for the gift of His dear Son.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Law cuts into the core of the evil, it reveals the seat of the malady, and informs us that the leprosy lies deep within.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
They must be slain by the Law before they can be made alive by the gospel.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In proportion as a church is holy, in that proportion will its testimony for Christ be powerful.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ. They who preach this truth preach the gospel in whatever else they may be mistaken but they who preach not the atonement, whatever else they declare, have missed the soul and substance of the divine message.
