Consume all obstacles, heavenly fire, and give us now both hearts of flame and tongues of fire to preach Your reconciling word, for Jesus' sake
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Oh, to have “the word of Christ” always dwelling inside of us-in the memory, never forgotten in the heart, always loved in the understanding, really grasped with all the powers and passions of the mind fully submitted to its control!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If when I get to heaven the Lord shall say to me, Spurgeon, I want you to preach for all eternity, I would reply, Lord, give me a Bible, that is all I need.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Inconsistent professors are the greatest stumbling blocks to the spread of the cause of Christ!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Remember the goodness of God in the frost of adversity.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Remember this, had any other condition been better for you than the one in which you are, divine love would have put you there.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Leave Christ out? O my brethren, better leave the pulpit out altogether. If a man can preach one sermon without mentioning Christ’s name in it, it ought to be his last, certainly the last that any Christian ought to go to hear him preach.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A child of God should be a visible beatitude for joy and happiness, and a living doxology for gratitude and adoration.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no healing a man till the law has wounded him, no making him alive till the law has slain him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A man who does nothing never has time to do anything
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The gospel which they so greatly needed they would not have the miracles which Jesus did not always choose to give, they eagerly demanded.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is a general kind of praying which fails for lack of precision. It is as if a regiment of soldiers should all fire off their guns anywhere. Possibly somebody would be killed, but the majority of the enemy would be missed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Serve God by doing common actions in a heavenly spirit, and then, if your daily calling only leaves you cracks and crevices of time, fill them up with holy service.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no reward from God to those who seek it from men.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When we ask of the Lord coolly, and not fervently, we do as it were, stop His hand, and restrain Him from giving us the very blessing we pretend that we are seeking.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If your religion does not make you holy, it will damn you. It is simply painted pageantry to go to hell in.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Defend the Bible? I'd sooner defend a lion. You don't defend the Bible you open its cage and let it roar.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It would be very difficult to draw a line between holy wonder and real worship for when the soul is overwhelmed with the majesty of God's glory, though it may not express itself in song, or even utter its voice with bowed head and humble prayer, yet it silently adores.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more holy, the more humble.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what he has done, and in what he is doing for me.
Charles Spurgeon
