I would to God that saints would cling to Christ half as earnestly as sinners cling to the devil. If we were as willing to suffer for God as some are to suffer for their lusts, what perseverance and zeal would be seen on all sides!

More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Free will carried many a soul to hell, but never a soul to heaven.
Charles Spurgeon
All places are places of worship to a Christian. Wherever he is, he ought to be in a worshiping frame of mind.
Charles Spurgeon
When the time comes for you to die, you need not be afraid, because death cannot separate you from God's love.
Charles Spurgeon
Remember, Christ's scholars must study upon their knees.
Charles Spurgeon
We often forget that the author of our faith must be the finisher of it also.
Charles Spurgeon
Love to Jesus is the basis of all true piety, and the intensity of this love will ever be the measure of our zeal for His glory. Let us love Him with all our hearts, and then diligent labor, and consistent living will be sure to follow.
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
Give me great sinners to make great saints! They are glorious raw material for Grace to work upon and when you do get them saved, they will shake the very gates of Hell!
Charles Spurgeon
Like Jonah, you may lose your gourd, but you cannot lose your God.
Charles Spurgeon
God is too good to be unkind, too wise to be mistaken and when you cannot trace His hand, you can trust His heart.
Charles Spurgeon
Leave Christ out? O my brethren, better leave the pulpit out altogether. If a man can preach one sermon without mentioning Christ’s name in it, it ought to be his last, certainly the last that any Christian ought to go to hear him preach.
Charles Spurgeon
A father's holy life is a rich legacy for his sons.
Charles Spurgeon
You are as much serving God in looking after your own children, & training them up in God’s fear, & minding the house, & making your household a church for God, as you would be if you had been called to lead an army to battle for the Lord of hosts.
Charles Spurgeon
No man can do me a truer kindness in this world than to pray for me.
Charles Spurgeon
If your religion does not make you holy, it will damn you. It is simply painted pageantry to go to hell in.
Charles Spurgeon
The Bible is not the light of the world, it is the light of the Church. But the world does not read the Bible, the world reads Christians! “You are the light of the world.”
Charles Spurgeon
We are not called to proclaim philosophy and metaphysics, but the simple gospel. Man's fall, his need of a new birth, forgiveness through atonement, and salvation as the result of faith, these are our battle-ax and weapons of war.
Charles Spurgeon
Believing right doctrine will no more save you, than doing good works will save you.
Charles Spurgeon
The preaching of Christ is the whip that flogs the devil. The preaching of Christ is the thunderbolt, the sound of which makes all hell shake.
Charles Spurgeon
Even if I give the whole of my worth to Him, He will find a way to give back to me much more than I gave.
