More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
True belief and true repentance are twins: it would be idle to attempt to say which is born first. All the spokes of a wheel move at once when the wheel moves, and so all the graces commence action when regeneration is wrought by the Holy Ghost. Repentance, however, there must be.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The highest honor that God can confer upon his children is the blood-red crown of martyrdom. The jewels of a Christian are his afflictions. The regalia of the kings that God has made, are their troubles, their sorrows, and their griefs. Griefs exalt us, and troubles lift us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If there were no hell, the loss of heaven would be hell.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
See yonder another King's garden, which the King waters with his bloody sweat-Gethsemane, whose bitter herbs are sweeter far to renewed souls than even Eden's luscious fruits. There the mischief of the serpent in the first garden was undone: there the curse was lifted from earth, and borne by the woman's promised seed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. It is the most grievous sentence of the three, but it overflows with comfort. Strange is it that where misery was concentrated mercy reigned where sorrow reached her climax weary souls find rest.
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
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
A vigorous temper is not altogether an evil. Men who are easy as an old shoe are generally of little worth.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Child of God, you cost Christ too much for him to forget you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that many professing Christians are cold and uncomfortable because they are doing nothing for their Lord but if they actively served him, their blood would begin to circulate spiritually, and it would be well with them.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I always say to young fellows who consult me about the ministry, Don't be a minister if you can help it, because if the man can help it, God never called him. But if he cannot help it, and he must preach or die, then he is the man.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To become a man was something, but to become a man of sorrows was far more to bleed, and die, and suffer.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
May gratitude to God permeate my entire life.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Blessed are the peacemakers, and one sure way of peacemaking is to let the fire of contention alone. Neither fan it, nor stir it, nor add fuel to it, but let it go out by itself. Begin your ministry with one blind eye and one deaf ear.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
That religion which costs a man nothing is usually worth nothing.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He that knows how to overcome the Lord in prayer, has heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is the very joy of this earthly life to think that it will come to an end.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Men turn their faces to hell, and hope to get to heaven why don't they walk into the horsepond, and hope to be dry?.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We should shun ingratitude, and live daily in the heavenly atmosphere of thankful love.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Let me be as the bullock which stands between the plough and the altar, to work or to be sacrificed and let my motto be, Ready for either.
