More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
There are two great truths which from this platform I have proclaimed for many years. The first is that salvation is free to every man who will have it the second is that God gives salvation to a people whom He has chosen and these truths are not in conflict with each other in the least degree.
Charles Spurgeon
Some people are never content with their lot, let what will happen. Clouds and darkness are over their heads, alike whether it rain or shine. To them every incident is an accident, and every accident a calamity.
Charles Spurgeon
You never have to drag mercy out of Christ, as money from a miser.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who is deeply discontented with himself is probably growing fast into the full likeness of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
God knows where every particle of the handful of dust has gone he has marked in his book the wandering of every one of its atoms. He hath death so open before His view, that He can bring all these together, bone to bone, and clothe them with the very flesh that robed them in the days of yore, and make them live again.
Charles Spurgeon
I am certain that to preach the wrath of God with a hard heart, a cold lip, a tearless eye, and an unfeeling spirit is to harden men, not benefit them.
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
We must teach plainly that the faith which saves the soul is not a dead faith, but a faith which operates with purifying effect upon our entire nature, and produces in us fruits of righteousness to the praise and glory of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer is one of the necessary wheels of the machinery of providence.
Charles Spurgeon
Death has no sting to a Believer. Once death was the penalty of sin-sin being forgiven, the penalty ceases and Christians do not die, now, as a punishment for their sin, but they die that they may be prepared to live!
Charles Spurgeon
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
Let us go to Calvary to learn how we may be forgiven. And then let us linger there to learn how to forgive.
Charles Spurgeon
You cannot be Christ’s servant if you are not willing to follow him, cross and all. What do you crave? A crown? Then it must be a crown of thorns if you are to be like him. Do you want to be lifted up? So you shall, but it will be upon a cross.
Charles Spurgeon
I have learned to kiss the waves that throw me up against the Rock of Ages.
Charles Spurgeon
If I had my choice of all the blessings I can conceive of I would choose perfect conformity to the Lord Jesus, or, in one word, holiness.
Charles Spurgeon
The gospel is not for you who can save yourselves, but for those who are lost.
Charles Spurgeon
Ministers should be stars to give light, not clouds to obscure.
Charles Spurgeon
The best way to live above all fear of death is to die every morning before you leave your bedroom.
Charles Spurgeon
If the people do not like the doctrine of grace, give them all the more of it.
Charles Spurgeon
A friend to everybody is often a friend to nobody, or else in his simplicity he robs his family to help strangers, and becomes brother to a beggar. There is wisdom in generosity, as in everything else.
Charles Spurgeon
