If we do wrong and no harm comes of it, we are not thereby justified. If we did evil and good came of it, the evil would be just as evil. It is not the result of the action, but the action itself which God weighs.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
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
We are all men, feeble, frail, and apt to faint.
Charles Spurgeon
Ministers should be stars to give light, not clouds to obscure.
Charles Spurgeon
He who is surety is never sure himself. Take advice, and never be security for more than you are quite willing to lose. Remember the word of the wise man: He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it and he that hateth suretyship is sure.
Charles Spurgeon
You shall find books and sermons everywhere, in the land and in the sea, in the earth and in the skies, and you shall learn from every living beast, and bird, and fish, and insect, and from every useful or useless plant that springs from the ground.
Charles Spurgeon
God works, and therefore we work God is with- us, and therefore we are with God, and stand on His side.
Charles Spurgeon
If you cannot trust God for the temporal, how dare you trust him for the eternal?
Charles Spurgeon
If you have no share in the living Lord may God have mercy upon you! If you have no share in Christ's rising from the dead then you will not be raised up in the likeness of His glorified body. If you do not attain to that resurrection from among the dead then you must abide in death.
Charles Spurgeon
One night alone in prayer might make us new men, changed from poverty of soul to spiritual wealth, from trembling to triumphing.
Charles Spurgeon
To be a soul winner is the happiest thing in the world. And with every soul you bring to Jesus Christ, you seem to get a new heaven here upon earth.
Charles Spurgeon
If we complained less, and praised more, we should be happier, and God would be more glorified.
Charles Spurgeon
Grace is the mother and nurse of holiness, and not the apologist of sin.
Charles Spurgeon
He is ready to cleanse you, It is sin, after all, that lies at the door and blocks you way to the Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
The most useful members of a church are usually those who would be doing harm if they were not doing good.
Charles Spurgeon
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
When we come to the end of self we come to the beginning of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Man's wonder grows with his knowledge.
Charles Spurgeon
Earnestness is good it means business. But fanaticism overdoes, and is consequently reactionary.
Charles Spurgeon
Shall I give you yet another reason why you should pray? I have preached my very heart out. I could not say any more than I have said. Will not your prayers accomplish that which my preaching fails to do? Is it not likely that the Church has been putting forth its preaching hand but not its praying hand? Oh dear friends! Let us agonize in prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
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
