Not that our salvation should be the effect of our work, but our work should be the evidence of our salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
The verb 'highly favored' (Luke 1:28) is the same as 'made us accepted' in Ephesians 1:6, referring to all of God's children. All true believers have been 'highly graced' by the Lord.

Charles Spurgeon
Watch constantly against those things which are thought to be no temptations. The most poisonous serpents are found where the sweetest flowers grow. Cleopatra was poisoned by an asp that was brought to her in a basket of fair flowers. Sharp-edged tools, long handled, wound at last.
Charles Spurgeon
Rest time is not waste time. It is economy to gather fresh strength... It is wisdom to take occasional furlough. In the long run, we shall do more by sometimes doing less.
Charles Spurgeon
Our happy God should be worshiped by a happy people.
Charles Spurgeon
When you go through a trial, the sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which you lay your head.
Charles Spurgeon
The more a church flourishes, the more, I believe, do hypocrites get in, just as you see many a noxious creeping thing come and get in a garden after a shower of rain. The very things that make glad the flowers bring out these noxious things. And so hypocrites get in and steal much of the church's sap away.
Charles Spurgeon
It cannot be that there is a high appreciation of Jesus and a totally silent tongue about him
Charles Spurgeon
In 40 years I have not spent 15 minutes without thinking of Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer is the thermometer of grace.
Charles Spurgeon
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
You cannot make a sinner into a saint by killing him. He who does not live as a saint here will never live as a saint hereafter.
Charles Spurgeon
