Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no reward from God to those who seek it from men.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Atonement by the blood of Jesus is not an arm of Christian truth it is the heart of it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The angels must often be astonished at us and think we are the strangest creatures that well can be, yet they love us, and therefore they take a great interest in that Gospel that promotes our highest good.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Song of God and Son of Man, there He hangs, bearing pains unutterable, the just for the unjust, to bring us to God.

Charles Spurgeon
Image
You will always know whether you are delivered from the guilt of sin by answering this question: Am I delivered from the love of sin?

Never fear dying, beloved. Dying is the last, but the least matter that a Christian has to be anxious about. Fear living...that is a hard battle to fight, a stern discipline to endure, a rough voyage to undergo.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you were God’s children you would loathe the very thought of the world’s evil joys, and your question would not be, “How far may we be like the world?” but your one cry would be, “How far can we get away from the world? How much can we come out from it?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I am certain that to preach the wrath of God with a hard heart, a cold lip, a tearless eye, and an unfeeling spirit is to harden men, not benefit them.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God calls you to be a minister, don't stoop to becoming a king.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Christ is the great central fact in the world's history. To Him everything looks forward or backward. All the lines of history converge upon Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God grant, if we must have two eyes, that they may be both clear ones, one the eye of faith wholly fixed on Christ, the other the eye of obedience equally and wholly fixed on the same objective!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Let me be as the bullock which stands between the plough and the altar, to work or to be sacrificed and let my motto be, Ready for either.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Faith is led confidently to expect what reason would never suggest.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Some people are never content with their lot, let what will happen. Clouds and darkness are over their heads, alike whether it rain or shine. To them every incident is an accident, and every accident a calamity.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Having made Jesus your all, you shall find your all in Jesus.
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.
