My witness is, that those who are honoured of their Lord in public, have usually to endure a secret chastening, or to carry a peculiar cross, lest by any means they exalt themselves, and fall into the snare of the devil.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Immanuel, God with us in our nature, in our sorrow, in our lifework, in our punishment, in our grave, and now with us, or rather we with Him, in resurrection, ascension, triumph, and Second Advent splendor.
Charles Spurgeon
If there be any one point in which the Christian church ought to keep its fervor at a white heat, it is concerning missions. If there be anything about which we cannot tolerate lukewarmness,it is the matter of sending the gospel to a dying world.
Charles Spurgeon
The Gospel is like a caged lion you don't have to defend it - just let it out of the cage.
Charles Spurgeon
When fathers are tongue tied religiously with their offspring, need they wonder if their children's hearts remain sin tied?
Charles Spurgeon
Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of God's grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Nine times out of ten, declension from God begins in the neglect of private prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
Fits of depression come over the most of us. Usually cheerful as we may be, we must at intervals be cast down. The strong are not always vigorous, the wise not always ready, the brave not always courageous, and the joyous not always happy.
Charles Spurgeon
A sermon without Christ as its beginning, middle, and end is a mistake in conception, a crime in execution.
Charles Spurgeon
A person who is really saved by Grace does not need to be told that he is under solemn obligations to serve Christ. The new life within him tells him that. Instead of regarding it as a burden, he gladly surrenders himself, body, soul, and spirit, to the Lord.
Charles Spurgeon
Stale godliness is ungodliness. Let our religion be as warm, and constant, and natural as the flow of the blood in our veins. A living God must be served in a living way.
Charles Spurgeon
We are warned by the Word both of our duty, our danger, and our remedy. On the sea of life there would be many more wrecks if it were not for the divine storm-signals which give to the watchful a timely warning. The Bible should be our Mentor, our Monitor, our Memento Mori, our Remembrancer, and the Keeper of our Conscience.
Charles Spurgeon
Free will carried many a soul to hell, but never a soul to heaven.
Charles Spurgeon
If there be a man before me who says that the wrath of God is too heavy a punishment for his little sin, I ask him, if the sin be little, why does he not give it up?
Charles Spurgeon
If Christ has died for me, I cannot trifle with the evil that killed my best Friend.
Charles Spurgeon
Like Jonah, you may lose your gourd, but you cannot lose your God.
Charles Spurgeon
Brethren, who are we that God should have been so good to us?
Charles Spurgeon
My hope lives not because I am not a sinner, but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died.
Charles Spurgeon
Think not of the sinner or the greatness of his sin, but think of the greatness of the Savior!
Charles Spurgeon
All good is born in prayer, and all good springs from it.
Charles Spurgeon
There, poor sinner, take my garment, and put it on you shall stand before God as if you were Christ, and I will stand before God as if I had been the sinner I will suffer in the sinner's stead, and you shall be rewarded for works that you did not do, but which I did for you.
Charles Spurgeon
