More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Great thoughts of your sin alone will drive you to despair but great thoughts of Christ will pilot you into the haven of peace.
Charles Spurgeon
To pursue union at the expense of truth is treason to the Lord Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Has there not been, sometimes, this temptation to do a great deal for Christ, but not to live a great deal with Christ?
Charles Spurgeon
God gave me this great book to preach from, and if He has put anything in it you think is not fit, go and complain to Him, not to me. I am simply his servant, and if His errand that I am to tell is objectionable, I cannot help it.
Charles Spurgeon
Oh, the hard, cruel thoughts which men have toward one another when they are angry! They kill and slay a thousand times over. These hasty sins are soon forgotten by us, but they are not forgotten by God.
Charles Spurgeon
Man's wonder grows with his knowledge.
Charles Spurgeon
Too many people write their blessings in the sand but engrave their sorrows in marble
Charles Spurgeon
There cannot be heaven without Christ. He is the sum total of bliss the fountain from which heaven flows, the element of which heaven is composed. Christ is heaven and heaven is Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Let eloquence be flung to the dogs rather than souls be lost. What we want is to win souls. They are not won by flowery speeches.
Charles Spurgeon
I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.
Charles Spurgeon
It is blessed to eat into the very soul of the Bible until the very essence of the Bible flows from you.
Charles Spurgeon
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
Carve your name on hearts, not on marble
Charles Spurgeon
Christians are not so much in danger when they are persecuted as when they are admired.
Charles Spurgeon
When God's mercies are coming, their footfalls are our desires to pray.
Charles Spurgeon
Whatever is your greatest joy and treasure, that is your god.
Charles Spurgeon
The moment the church of God shall despise the pulpit, God will despise her.
Charles Spurgeon
Depend upon it, since Satan could not kill the church by roaring at her like a lion, he is now trying to crush her by hugging her like a bear.
Charles Spurgeon
No man can put on the robes of Christ’s righteousness till he has taken off his own.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayerless souls are Christless souls, Christless souls are Graceless souls and Graceless souls shall soon be damned souls. See your peril, you that neglect altogether the blessed privilege of prayer! You are in the bonds of iniquity, you are in the gall of bitterness. God deliver you, for Hisname's sake!
Charles Spurgeon
