More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
Praying without fervency is like hunting with a dead dog.
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
Faith is the fountain, the foundation and the fosterer of obedience.
Charles Spurgeon
Be assured, there is nothing new in theology except that which is false.
Charles Spurgeon
If your religion does not make you holy, it will damn you. It is simply painted pageantry to go to hell in.

Charles Spurgeon
You must be in fashion is the utterance of weak headed mortals.
Charles Spurgeon
A little faith will bring your soul to heaven a great faith will bring heaven to your soul.
Charles Spurgeon
The demon of pride was born with us and it will not die one hour before us.
Charles Spurgeon
Sometimes we are inclined to think that a very great portion of modern revivalism has been more a curse than a blessing, because it has led thousands to a kind of peace before they have known their misery restoring the prodigal to the Father’s house, and never making him say, “Father, I have sinned.”
Charles Spurgeon
If you are renewed by grace, and were to meet your old self, I am sure you would be very anxious to get out of his company.
Charles Spurgeon
The higher a man is in grace, the lower he will be in his own esteem.
Charles Spurgeon
He (Jesus) will reign over you, either by your consent, or without it.
