More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

We must teach plainly that the faith which saves the soul is not a dead faith, but a faith which operates with purifying effect upon our entire nature, and produces in us fruits of righteousness to the praise and glory of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In proportion as a church is holy, in that proportion will its testimony for Christ be powerful.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The sovereign electing grace of God chooses us to repentance, to faith, and afterwards to holiness of living, to Christian service, to zeal, and to devotion.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Scripture is like a lion. Who ever heard of defending a lion? Just turn it loose it will defend itself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A church in the land without the Spirit is rather a curse than a blessing. If you have not the Spirit of God, Christian worker, remember that you stand in somebody else's way you are a fruitless tree standing where a fruitful tree might grow.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God does not save men by truth, he certainly will not save them by lies. And if the old gospel is not competent to work a revival, then we will do without the revival.

Charles Spurgeon
Image
God knows where every particle of the handful of dust has gone he has marked in his book the wandering of every one of its atoms. He hath death so open before His view, that He can bring all these together, bone to bone, and clothe them with the very flesh that robed them in the days of yore, and make them live again.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is the surest proof of man's natural enmity against God that he dares to impute falsehood to one who is truth itself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To be cast down is often the best thing that can happen to us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not the strength of your faith that saves you, but the strength of Him upon whom you rely! Christ is able to save you if you come to Him-be your faith weak or be it strong.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If I am not today all that I hope to be, yet I see Jesus, and that assures me that I shall one day be like Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If the people do not like the doctrine of grace, give them all the more of it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The mind of God is greater than all the minds of men, so let all men leave the gospel just as God has delivered it unto us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is nothing that will keep a person from Christ like a good opinion of himself.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Providence of God is the great protector of our life and usefulness, and under the divine care we are perfectly safe from danger.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Faith is led confidently to expect what reason would never suggest.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer is one of the necessary wheels of the machinery of providence.

There are, in truth, but two denominations upon this earth: the Church and the world.
