More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Trust in God alone, and lean not on the needs of human help. Be not surprised when friends fail you it is a failing world. Never reckon upon immutability in man: inconstancy you may reckon upon without fear of disappointment.
Charles Spurgeon
Faith has a saving connection with Christ. Christ is on the shore, so to speak, holding the rope, and as we lay hold of it with the hand of our confidence, He pulls us to shore but all good works having no connection with Christ are drifted along down the gulf of fell despair.
Charles Spurgeon
There is nothing so deluded as feelings. Christians cannot live by feelings. Let me further tell you that many feelings are the work of Satan, for they are not right feelings. What right have you to set up your feelings against the Word of Christ?
Charles Spurgeon
I always say to young fellows who consult me about the ministry, Don't be a minister if you can help it, because if the man can help it, God never called him. But if he cannot help it, and he must preach or die, then he is the man.
Charles Spurgeon
Defend the Bible? I'd sooner defend a lion. You don't defend the Bible you open its cage and let it roar.
Charles Spurgeon
Do not go on His errands till first you have sat at His feet.
Charles Spurgeon
Blessed are the peacemakers, and one sure way of peacemaking is to let the fire of contention alone. Neither fan it, nor stir it, nor add fuel to it, but let it go out by itself. Begin your ministry with one blind eye and one deaf ear.
Charles Spurgeon
The more of heaven there is in our lives, the less of earth we shall covet.
Charles Spurgeon
A holy life is in itself a wonderful power, and will make up for many deficiencies it is in fact the best sermon a man can ever deliver.
Charles Spurgeon
Free grace can go into the gutter, and bring up a jewel!
Charles Spurgeon
I believe that the happiest of all Christians and the truest of Christians are those who never dare to doubt God, but take His Word simply as it stands, and believe it, and ask no questions, just feeling assured that if God has said it, it will be so.
Charles Spurgeon
To wash and dress a corpse is a far different thing from making it alive: Man can do the one--God alone can do the other.
Charles Spurgeon
Delayed answers to prayer are not only trials of faith they also give us opportunities to honor God through our steadfast confidence in Him, even when facing the apparent denial of our request.
Charles Spurgeon
That religion which costs a man nothing is usually worth nothing.
Charles Spurgeon
He that knows how to overcome the Lord in prayer, has heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
Death has no sting to a Believer. Once death was the penalty of sin-sin being forgiven, the penalty ceases and Christians do not die, now, as a punishment for their sin, but they die that they may be prepared to live!
Charles Spurgeon
From the Word of God I gather that damnation is all of man, from top to bottom, and salvation is all of grace, from first to last. He that perishes chooses to perish but he that is saved is saved because God has chosen to save him.
Charles Spurgeon
We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them.
Charles Spurgeon
Let no knowledge satisfy but that which lifts above the world, which weans from the world, which makes the world a footstool.
Charles Spurgeon
You must be in fashion is the utterance of weak headed mortals.
Charles Spurgeon
