As the salt flavors every drop in the Atlantic, so does sin affect every atom of our nature. It is so sadly there, so abundantly there, that if you cannot detect it, you are deceived.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sometimes we are inclined to think that a very great portion of modern revivalism has been more a curse than a blessing, because it has led thousands to a kind of peace before they have known their misery restoring the prodigal to the Father’s house, and never making him say, “Father, I have sinned.”

He that knows how to overcome the Lord in prayer, has heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayerless souls are Christless souls, Christless souls are Graceless souls and Graceless souls shall soon be damned souls. See your peril, you that neglect altogether the blessed privilege of prayer! You are in the bonds of iniquity, you are in the gall of bitterness. God deliver you, for Hisname's sake!

The highest science, the loftiest speculation, the mightiest philosophy, which can ever engage the attention of a child of God, is the name, the nature, the person, the work, the doings, and the existence of the great God whom he calls his Father.

Winners of souls must first be weepers for souls.
Charles Spurgeon

He that is never on his knees on earth shall never stand upon his feet in heaven
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God, and the heart never comes into spiritual commerce with the ports of heaven until God the Holy Ghost puts wind into the sails and speeds the ship into its haven.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Satan does not care whether he drags you down to hell as a Calvinist or as an Arminian, so long as he can get you there.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Be dogmatically true, obstinately holy, immovably honest, desperately kind, fixedly upright.

No man can put on the robes of Christ’s righteousness till he has taken off his own.
