The worst evils of life are those which do not exist except in our imagination.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Surely if men's hearts were right, short sermons would be enough.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We are not called to proclaim philosophy and metaphysics, but the simple gospel. Man's fall, his need of a new birth, forgiveness through atonement, and salvation as the result of faith, these are our battle-ax and weapons of war.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't you know that day dawns after night, showers displace drought, and spring and summer follow winter? Then, have hope! Hope forever, for God will not fail you!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whenever there is a cross to be carried by any of Christ’s followers, He always bears the heavy end on His own shoulders.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You need not bring life to the scripture. You should draw life from the scripture.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
One of the greatest rewards that we ever receive for serving God is the permission to do still more for Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
No man can put on the robes of Christ’s righteousness till he has taken off his own.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
The cry of a young raven is nothing but the natural cry of a creature, but your cry, if it be sincere, is the result of a work of grace in your heart.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nothing can be more sublime this side of heaven than the singing of this noble Psalm by a vast congregation. It is all ablaze with grateful adoration.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would as soon pray to God with machinery as to sing to God with machinery.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you speak of heaven, let your face light up let it be irradiated by a heavenly gleam let your eyes shine with reflected glory. But when you speak of hell, your ordinary expression will do.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
May your convictions be deep, your love real, and your desires earnest
Charles Spurgeon
Image
As well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend the Eternal God. A God whom we could understand would be no God. If we could grasp Him, He could not be infinite. If we could understand Him, He could not be divine.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man loves his own ruin. The cup is so sweet that though he knows it will poison him, yet he must drink it. And the harlot is so fair, that though he understands that her ways lead down to hell, yet like a bullock he follows to the slaughter till the dart goes through his liver. Man is fascinated and bewitched by sin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Where the plow does not go and the seed is not sown, the weeds are sure to multiply.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man is a fallen star till he is right with heaven: he is out of order with himself and all around him till he occupies his true place in relation to God. When he serves God, he has reached that point where he doth serve himself best, and enjoys himself most. It is man's honour, it is man's joy, it is man's heaven, to live unto God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
But no thoughtful man's life is uninteresting or devoid of marvels. A sincere life cannot be empty of memorable occurrences.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The bounden duty of a true believer towards men who profess to be Christians, and yet deny the Word of the Lord, and reject the fundamentals of the Gospel, is to come out from among them
