The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
They must be slain by the Law before they can be made alive by the gospel.
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.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Great hearts can only be made by great troubles. The spade of trouble digs the reservoir of comfort deeper, and makes more room for consolation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When I am weak then am I strong, Grace is my shield and Christ my Song.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Do not despair, dear heart, but come to the Lord with all your jagged wounds, black bruises, and running sores. He alone can heal, and He delights to do it. It is our Lord's office to bind up the brokenhearted, and He is gloriously at home at it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The truest lengthening of life is to live while we live, wasting no time but using every hour for the highest ends. So be it this day.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
All the hope of our ministry lies in the Spirit of God operating on the spirits of men.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Those who dive in the sea of affliction bring up rare pearls.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Though you have changed a thousand times, He has not changed once.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you are instructed by affliction, you can become a comforter to the afflicted.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God never punishes his children in the sense of avenging justice. He chastens as a father does his child, but he never punishes his redeemed as a judge does a criminal. It is unjust to exact punishment from redeemed souls since Christ has been punished in their place. How shall the Lord punish twice for one offense?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who is not angry at transgression becomes a partaker in it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True prayer is an approach of the soul by the Spirit of God to the throne of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Oh, without prayer what are the church's agencies, but the stretching out of a dead man's arm, or the lifting up of the lid of a blind man's eye? Only when the Holy Spirit comes is there any life and force and power.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
This is faith, receiving the truth of Christ first knowing it to be true, and then acting upon that belief.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Jesus has borne the death penalty on our behalf. Behold the wonder! There He hang upon the cross!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Praise is the Rehearsal of Our eternal Song By Grace We learn to Sing, and in Glory We Continue to Sing.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Faith is the accepting of what God gives. Faith is the believing what God says. Faith is the trusting to what Jesus has done. Only do this and you are saved, as surely as you are alive!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We need winds and tempests to exercise our faith, to tear off the rotten bough of self-dependence, and to root us more firmly in Christ. The day of evil reveals to us the value of our glorious hope.
