Image
The wicked man, when he dies, is driven to his grave, but the Christian comes to his grave.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The best worship that we ever render to God is far from perfect. Our praises, how faint and feeble they are! Our prayers, how wandering, how wavering they are! When we get nearest to God, how far off we are! When we are most like Him, how greatly unlike Him we are!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
Too many think lightly of sin, and therefore think lightly of the Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Never be afraid of your Bibles.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
...never go to look on man till you have first looked on your God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When we bless God for mercies, we usually prolong them. When we bless God for miseries, we usually end them. Praise is the honey of life which a devout heart extracts from every bloom of providence and grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
From the Word of God I gather that damnation is all of man, from top to bottom, and salvation is all of grace, from first to last. He that perishes chooses to perish but he that is saved is saved because God has chosen to save him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The moment the church of God shall despise the pulpit, God will despise her.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
As long as a man is alive and out of hell, he cannot have any cause to complain.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
No one knows who is listening, say nothing you would not wish put in the newspapers.
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
When we come to the end of self we come to the beginning of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A well marked Bible is the sign of a well-fed soul.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Soul-serving requires a heart that beats hard against the ribs. It requires a soul full of the milk of human kindness. This is the sine qua non of success.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A prayerless church member is a hindrance. He is in the body like a rotting bone or a decayed tooth. Before long, since he does not contribute to the benefit of his brethren, he will become a danger and a sorrow to them. Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You may readily judge whether you are a child of God or a hypocrite by seeing in what direction your soul turns in seasons of severe trial. The hypocrite flies to the world and finds a sort of comfort there. But the child of God runs to his Father and expects consolation only from the Lord's hand.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I am a pilgrim in the world, but at home in my God. In the earth I wander, but in God I dwell in a quiet habitation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It cannot be that there is a high appreciation of Jesus and a totally silent tongue about him
