More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Oh, the stoop of the Redeemer's amazing love! Let us, henceforth, contend how low we can go side by side with Him, but remember when we have gone to the lowest He descends lower still, so that we can truly feel that the very lowest place is too high for us, because He has gone lower still.
Charles Spurgeon
Watch constantly against those things which are thought to be no temptations. The most poisonous serpents are found where the sweetest flowers grow. Cleopatra was poisoned by an asp that was brought to her in a basket of fair flowers. Sharp-edged tools, long handled, wound at last.
Charles Spurgeon
Preach not calmly and quietly as though you were asleep, but preach with fire and pathos and passion.
Charles Spurgeon
Revival begins by Christians getting right first and then spills over into the world.
Charles Spurgeon
To rejoice in temporal comforts is dangerous, to rejoice in self is foolish, to rejoice in sin is fatal, but to rejoice in God is heavenly.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not well to make great changes in old age.
Charles Spurgeon
Believing right doctrine will no more save you, than doing good works will save you.
Charles Spurgeon
Idle men tempt the devil to tempt them.
Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
If God calls you to be a minister, don't stoop to becoming a king.
Charles Spurgeon
In proportion as a church is holy, in that proportion will its testimony for Christ be powerful.
Charles Spurgeon
Man's words are mere breath, but the word of the Lord is spirit and life.
Charles Spurgeon
If a crooked stick is before you, you need not explain how crooked it is. Lay a straight one down by the side of it, and the work is well done. Preach the truth, and error will stand abashed in its presence.
Charles Spurgeon
I believe that one reason why the church of God at this present moment has so little influence over the world is because the world has so much influence over the church.
Charles Spurgeon
One might better try to sail the Atlantic in a paper boat, than try to get to heaven on good works.
Charles Spurgeon
The faith which saves is not one single act done on a certain day: it is an act continued and persevered in throughout the life of man.
Charles Spurgeon
I know nothing that can so comfort the soul, so calm the swelling billows of grief and sorrow, so speak peace to the winds of trial, as a devout musing upon the subject of the Godhead.
Charles Spurgeon
If a man can preach one sermon without mentioning Christ's name in it, it ought to be his last.
Charles Spurgeon
The law shows the distance that exists between God and man the Gospel bridges that awful chasm and brings the sinner across it.
