It is a remarkable fact that all the heresies which have arisen in the Christian Church have had a decided tendency to dishonor God and to flatter man.

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
One might better try to sail the Atlantic in a paper boat, than try to get to heaven on good works.
Charles Spurgeon
Many books in my library are now behind and beneath me. They were good in their way once, and so were the clothes I wore when I was ten years old but I have outgrown them. Nobody ever outgrows Scripture the book widens and deepens with our years.
Charles Spurgeon
Trials teach us what we are.
Charles Spurgeon
When you see a man with a great deal of religion displayed in his shop window, you may depend upon it he keeps a very small stock of it within.
Charles Spurgeon
All the hope of our ministry lies in the Spirit of God operating on the spirits of men.
Charles Spurgeon
I do not know if there is a more dreadful word in the English language than that word lost.
Charles Spurgeon
The assurance of every truth of Scripture is just the beauty of it. First because He has promised to do it and God's promises are bonds that never yet were dishonored. Secondly, because Christ Jesus hath taken an oath that He will do it.
Charles Spurgeon
Said will be a little ahead, but done should follow at his heel.
Charles Spurgeon
I live in Jesus, on Jesus, with Jesus, and soon hope to be perfectly conformed to His likeness.
Charles Spurgeon
May we live here like strangers and make the world not a house, but an inn, in which we sup and lodge, expecting to be on our journey tomorrow.
Charles Spurgeon
You have need to pray to God, not only to help you in your troubles--but to help you in your blessings
Charles Spurgeon
Trust in the person's promise who dares to refuse what they fear they cannot perform.
Charles Spurgeon
As the salt flavors every drop in the Atlantic, so does sin affect every atom of our nature. It is so sadly there, so abundantly there, that if you cannot detect it, you are deceived.
Charles Spurgeon
You need not bring life to the scripture. You should draw life from the scripture.
Charles Spurgeon
You and your sins must separate, or you and your God will never come together.
Charles Spurgeon
Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.
Charles Spurgeon
All good is born in prayer, and all good springs from it.
Charles Spurgeon
Without Christ there is no hope.
Charles Spurgeon
God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart. When you are so weak that you cannot do much more than cry, you coin diamonds with both your eyes. The sweetest prayers God ever hears are the groans and sighs of those who have no hope in anything but his love.
Charles Spurgeon
Shall I give you yet another reason why you should pray? I have preached my very heart out. I could not say any more than I have said. Will not your prayers accomplish that which my preaching fails to do? Is it not likely that the Church has been putting forth its preaching hand but not its praying hand? Oh dear friends! Let us agonize in prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
