If God calls you to be a minister, don't stoop to becoming a king.
Charles Spurgeon
If you simply take the name of Christ upon you and call yourself His servant, yet do not obey Him, but follow your own whim, or your own hereditary prejudice, or the custom of some erroneous church-you are no servant of Christ. If you really are a servant of Christ, your first duty is to obey Him.

Charles Spurgeon
I met another man who considered himself perfect, but he was thoroughly mad and I do not believe that any of the pretenders to perfection are better than good maniacs... for while a man has got a spark of reason left in him, he cannot, unless he is the most impudent of impostors, talk about being perfect.
Charles Spurgeon
A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.
Charles Spurgeon
You shall find books and sermons everywhere, in the land and in the sea, in the earth and in the skies, and you shall learn from every living beast, and bird, and fish, and insect, and from every useful or useless plant that springs from the ground.
Charles Spurgeon
He is ready to cleanse you, It is sin, after all, that lies at the door and blocks you way to the Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
When fathers are tongue tied religiously with their offspring, need they wonder if their children's hearts remain sin tied?
Charles Spurgeon
God is with us, and His power is around us.
Charles Spurgeon
As the rain soaks into the ground, so pray the Lord to let his gospel soak into your soul.
