Neither when we have chosen our way can we keep company with those who go the other way. There must come with the decision for truth a corresponding protest against error.

Image
Nothing can be more sublime this side of heaven than the singing of this noble Psalm by a vast congregation. It is all ablaze with grateful adoration.

You must be in fashion is the utterance of weak headed mortals.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The distance between the glorified spirits in heaven and the militant saints on earth seems great but it is not so. We are not far from home. Heaven... is just one sigh and we get there. Our departed friends are only in the upper room, as it were, of the same house they have not gone far off they are upstairs and we are down below.

Every Christian man has a choice between being humble and being humbled.

True prayer is neither a mere mental exercise nor a vocal performance. It is a spiritual commerce with the Creator of heaven and earth.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would sooner be holy than happy if the two things could be divorced. Were it possible for a man always to sorrow and yet to be pure, I would choose the sorrow if I might win the purity, for to be free from the power of sin, to be made to love holiness, is true happiness.

Image
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
Image
There are two great truths which from this platform I have proclaimed for many years. The first is that salvation is free to every man who will have it the second is that God gives salvation to a people whom He has chosen and these truths are not in conflict with each other in the least degree.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
...the power of prayer can never be overrated. They who cannot serve God by preaching need not regret. If a man can but pray he can do anything. He who knows how to overcome with God in prayer has Heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If the Lord's bearing our sin for us is not the gospel, I have no gospel to preach.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It cannot be that there is a high appreciation of Jesus and a totally silent tongue about him
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I do not know when I am more perfectly happy than when I am weeping for sin at the foot of the cross.

Child of God, you cost Christ too much for him to forget you.

Ministers should be stars to give light, not clouds to obscure.

Do not wade far out into the dangerous sea of this world's comfort. Take the good that God provides you, but say of it, It passeth away for, indeed, it is but a temporary supply for a temporary need. Never suffer your goods to become your God.
