God's mercy is so great that you may sooner drain the sea of its water, or deprive the sun of its light, or make space too narrow, than diminish the great mercy of God.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
The grandest discourse ever delivered is an ostentatious failure if the doctrine of the grace of God be absent from it.
Charles Spurgeon
I would to God that saints would cling to Christ half as earnestly as sinners cling to the devil. If we were as willing to suffer for God as some are to suffer for their lusts, what perseverance and zeal would be seen on all sides!
Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God.
Charles Spurgeon
Wisdom is the right use of knowledge.
Charles Spurgeon
A rejoicing heart soon makes a praising tongue.
Charles Spurgeon
God will not go forth with that man who marches in his own strength
Charles Spurgeon
That conversion which is all joy and lacks sorrow for sin, is very questionable.
Charles Spurgeon
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.
Charles Spurgeon
Never be afraid of your Bibles.
Charles Spurgeon
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
Charles Spurgeon
Inconsistent professors are the greatest stumbling blocks to the spread of the cause of Christ!
Charles Spurgeon
Because God is the living God, He can hear because He is a loving God, He will hear because He is our covenant God, He has bound Himself to hear.
Charles Spurgeon
The more a church flourishes, the more, I believe, do hypocrites get in, just as you see many a noxious creeping thing come and get in a garden after a shower of rain. The very things that make glad the flowers bring out these noxious things. And so hypocrites get in and steal much of the church's sap away.
Charles Spurgeon
To become a man was something, but to become a man of sorrows was far more to bleed, and die, and suffer.
Charles Spurgeon
Ministers should be stars to give light, not clouds to obscure.
Charles Spurgeon
I believe a very large majority of church goers are merely unthinking, slumbering worshipers of an unknown God.
Charles Spurgeon
I am certain that to preach the wrath of God with a hard heart, a cold lip, a tearless eye, and an unfeeling spirit is to harden men, not benefit them.
Charles Spurgeon
I know nothing that can so comfort the soul, so calm the swelling billows of grief and sorrow, so speak peace to the winds of trial, as a devout musing upon the subject of the Godhead.
Charles Spurgeon
All places are places of worship to a Christian. Wherever he is, he ought to be in a worshiping frame of mind.
Charles Spurgeon
To preach the gospel is to stae every doctrine contained in God's word, and to give every truth its proper prominence.
