The Lord gets his best soldiers out of the highlands of affliction.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you rest on the finished work of Jesus you have already the best evidence of your salvation in the world you have God's word for it what more is needed?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer is not a hard requirement - it is the natural duty of a creature to its creator, the simplest homage that human need can pay to divine liberality.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If Christ were only a cistern we might soon exhaust his fullness but who can drain a fountain?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Without Christ there is no hope.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more objects you set your heart upon, the more thorns there are to tear your peace of mind to shreds.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God's thoughts of you are many, let not yours be few in return.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If there be a man before me who says that the wrath of God is too heavy a punishment for his little sin, I ask him, if the sin be little, why does he not give it up?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A father's holy life is a rich legacy for his sons.
Charles Spurgeon

Image
Believing right doctrine will no more save you, than doing good works will save you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True belief and true repentance are twins: it would be idle to attempt to say which is born first. All the spokes of a wheel move at once when the wheel moves, and so all the graces commence action when regeneration is wrought by the Holy Ghost. Repentance, however, there must be.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no attribute of God more comforting to His children than the doctrine of Divine Sovereignty. Under the most adverse circumstances, in the most severe troubles, they believe that Sovereignty hath ordained their afflictions, that Sovereignty overrules them, and that Sovereignty will sanctify them all.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Often doubts will prevail. What a mercy it is that it is not your hold of Christ that saves you, but His hold of you! What a sweet fact that it is not how you grasp His hand, but His grasp of yours that saves you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Our best performances are so stained with sin, that it is hard to know whether they are good works or bad works.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We shall never see much change for the better in our churches in general till the prayer meeting occupies a higher place in the esteem of Christians.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer must not be our chance work but our daily business, our habit and vocation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
One of the greatest rewards that we ever receive for serving God is the permission to do still more for Him.
