Image
There are some things that can be learned by the head, but Christ crucified can only be learned by the heart
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We declare, upon Scriptural authority, that the human will is so desperately set on mischief, so depraved, and so inclined to everything that is evil, and so disinclined to everything that is good, that without the powerful, supernatural, irresistible influence of the Holy Spirit, no human will ever be constrained towards Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a good rule never to look into the face of a man in the morning till you have looked into the face of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Stand still - keep the posture of an upright man, ready for action, expecting further orders, cheerfully and patiently awaiting the directing voice and it will not be long ere God shall say to you, as distinctly as Moses said it to the people of Israel, Go forward.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ. They who preach this truth preach the gospel in whatever else they may be mistaken but they who preach not the atonement, whatever else they declare, have missed the soul and substance of the divine message.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is nothing little in God His mercy is like Himself-it is infinite. You cannot measure it. His mercy is so great that it forgives great sins to great sinners, after great lengths of time, and then gives great favours and great privileges, and raises us up to great enjoyments in the great heaven of the great God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A church that does not exist to reclaim heathenism, to fight evil, to destroy error, to put down falsehood, a church that does not exist to take the side of the poor, to denounce injustice and to hold up righteousness, is a church that has no right to be. Not for yourself, O church, do you exist, any more than Christ existed for Himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who does not love sinners cannot pray aright for them.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Faith never makes herself her own plea, she rests all her argument upon the blood of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If I had never joined a church till I had found one that was perfect, I should never have joined one at all and the moment I did join it, if I had found one, I should have spoiled it, for it would not have been a perfect church after I had become a member of it. Still, imperfect as it is, it is the dearest place on earthto us.

Man's wonder grows with his knowledge.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
Does the world satisfy thee? Then thou hast thy reward & portion in this life make much of it, for thou shalt know no other joy
Charles Spurgeon
Image
My hope lives not because I am not a sinner, but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Immanuel, God with us in our nature, in our sorrow, in our lifework, in our punishment, in our grave, and now with us, or rather we with Him, in resurrection, ascension, triumph, and Second Advent splendor.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The glory of God's faithfulness is that no sin of ours has ever made Him unfaithful.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When God's mercies are coming, their footfalls are our desires to pray.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
No man can put on the robes of Christ’s righteousness till he has taken off his own.

It is not well to make great changes in old age.

Repentance and desires after holiness never be separated.
