More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
I long for nothing more earnestly than to serve God with all my might.
Charles Spurgeon
It seems odd, that certain men who talk so much of what the Holy Spirit reveals to themselves, should think so little of what he has revealed to others.
Charles Spurgeon
This day, my God, I hate sin not because it damns me, but because it has done Thee wrong. To have grieved my God is the worst grief to me.
Charles Spurgeon
Atheism is a strange thing. Even the devils never fell into that vice.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no university for a Christian, like that of sorrow and trial
Charles Spurgeon
God has so made man's heart that nothing can ever fill it but God himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer is the forerunner of mercy. Turn to sacred history, and you will find that scarecely ever did a great mercy come to this world unheralded by supplication.
Charles Spurgeon
I am convinced that there is no great distance between heaven and earth, that the distance lies in our finite minds. When the Beloved visits us in the night, He turns our chambers into the vestibules of His palace halls. Earth rises to heaven when heaven comes down to earth.
Charles Spurgeon
Sin and Hell are married unless repentance proclaims the divorce.
Charles Spurgeon
We cannot play at preaching. We preach for eternity.
Charles Spurgeon
He who is surety is never sure himself. Take advice, and never be security for more than you are quite willing to lose. Remember the word of the wise man: He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it and he that hateth suretyship is sure.
Charles Spurgeon
I have noticed that whenever a person gives up his belief in the Word of God because it requires that he should believe a good deal, his unbelief requires him to believe a great deal more. If there be any difficulties in the faith of Christ, they are not one-tenth as great as the absurdities in any system of unbelief which seeks to take its place.
Charles Spurgeon
If we are indeed contending for truth and righteousness, let us not tarry till we have talent, or wealth, or any other form of visible power at our disposal but with such stones as we find in the brook, and with our own usual sling, let us run to meet the enemy.
Charles Spurgeon
To be forgiven is such sweetness that honey is tasteless in comparison with it. But yet there is one thing sweeter still, and that is to forgive. As it is more blessed to give than to receive, so to forgive rises a stage higher in experience than to be forgiven.
Charles Spurgeon
When it is the Lord’s work in which we rejoice, we need not be afraid of being too glad.
Charles Spurgeon
Surely if men's hearts were right, short sermons would be enough.
Charles Spurgeon
You might not always get what you want, but you always get what you expect.
Charles Spurgeon
Free will carried many a soul to hell, but never a soul to heaven.
Charles Spurgeon
Blessed are the peacemakers, and one sure way of peacemaking is to let the fire of contention alone. Neither fan it, nor stir it, nor add fuel to it, but let it go out by itself. Begin your ministry with one blind eye and one deaf ear.
Charles Spurgeon
To a hungry man, Christ is very lovely when He has a loaf of bread in His hand.
Charles Spurgeon
