Man's wonder grows with his knowledge.

Image
Of all the things in the world that can set the heart burning, there is nothing like the presence of Jesus!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Praying without fervency is like hunting with a dead dog.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man loves his own ruin. The cup is so sweet that though he knows it will poison him, yet he must drink it. And the harlot is so fair, that though he understands that her ways lead down to hell, yet like a bullock he follows to the slaughter till the dart goes through his liver. Man is fascinated and bewitched by sin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Your sorrow itself shall be turned into joy. Not the sorrow to be taken away, and joy to be put in its place, but the very sorrow which now grieves you shall be turned into joy. God not only takes away the bitterness and gives sweetness in its place, but turns the bitterness into sweetness itself.

The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world. He is like a traveler in an inn, perfectly satisfied with the inn and its accommodation, considering it as an inn, but putting quite out of all consideration the idea of making it his home.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
No life can surpass that of a man who quietly continues to serve God in the place where providence has placed him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it but to win souls is far nobler work. How is it that we so soon withdraw from it?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You need not bring life to the scripture. You should draw life from the scripture.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Intercessory prayer is an act of communion with Christ, for Jesus pleads for the sons of men.

Blood, always precious, is priceless when it streams from Immanuel's side.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no exception to this rule: All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant. They say there is no rule without an exception, but there is an exception to that rule.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Christ is the great central fact in the world's history. To Him everything looks forward or backward. All the lines of history converge upon Him.
