More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Persecution is the heirloom of the church, and the ensign of the elect.
Charles Spurgeon
We are convinced that all of our race who die in infancy partake in the redemption wrought out by our Lord Jesus. Whatever some may think, we believe that the whole spirit and tone of the Word of God, as well as the nature of God Himself, lead us to believe that all who leave this world as babes are saved.
Charles Spurgeon
It does not spoil your happiness to confess your sin. The unhappiness is in not making the confession.
Charles Spurgeon
The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world. He is like a traveler in an inn, perfectly satisfied with the inn and its accommodation, considering it as an inn, but putting quite out of all consideration the idea of making it his home.
Charles Spurgeon
Oh, the hard, cruel thoughts which men have toward one another when they are angry! They kill and slay a thousand times over. These hasty sins are soon forgotten by us, but they are not forgotten by God.
Charles Spurgeon
An unkind heart is the worst. It is a plague to its possessor, and a torment to those around him.
Charles Spurgeon
God is to be praised with the voice, and the heart should go therewith in holy exultation.
Charles Spurgeon
It is the very joy of this earthly life to think that it will come to an end.
Charles Spurgeon
I do not think I should care to go on worshipping a Madonna even if she did wink. One cannot make much out of a wink. We want something more than that from the object of our adoration.
Charles Spurgeon
Master those books you have. Read them thoroughly. Bathe in them until they saturate you. Read and re-read them...digest them...a student will find that his mental constitution is more affected by one book thoroughly mastered than by 20 books he has merely skimmed.
Charles Spurgeon
If God calls you to be a minister, don't stoop to becoming a king.
Charles Spurgeon
The Lord Jesus is a deep sea of joy my soul shall dive therein, shall be swallowed up in the delights of his society.
Charles Spurgeon
It is a very solemn delusion when ministers think they are prospering, and yet do not hear of conversions.
Charles Spurgeon
None of us can come to the highest maturity without enduring the summer heat of trials.
Charles Spurgeon
Habits, soft and pliant at first, are like some coral stones, which are easily cut when first quarried, but soon become hard as adamant.
Charles Spurgeon
Complicity with error will take from the best of men the power to enter any successful protest against it.
Charles Spurgeon
When you speak of heaven, let your face light up let it be irradiated by a heavenly gleam let your eyes shine with reflected glory. But when you speak of hell, your ordinary expression will do.
Charles Spurgeon
He who is his own guide is guided by a fool.
Charles Spurgeon
My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what he has done, and in what he is doing for me.
Charles Spurgeon
In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.
