Image
If you rest on the finished work of Jesus you have already the best evidence of your salvation in the world you have God's word for it what more is needed?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Nobody ever outgrows Scripture the book widens and deepens with our years.
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
This is the sum my brethren, preach Christ, always and evermore. He is the whole gospel. His person, offices, and work must be our one great all-comprehending theme
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Only he is fit to preach who cannot avoid preaching, who feels that woe is upon him unless he preach the gospel
Charles Spurgeon

The more objects you set your heart upon, the more thorns there are to tear your peace of mind to shreds.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We hold that man is never so near grace as when he begins to feel he can do nothing at all.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The grandest discourse ever delivered is an ostentatious failure if the doctrine of the grace of God be absent from it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Never try to live on the old manna, nor seek to find help in Egypt. All must come from Jesus or thou art undone forever. Old anointings will not suffice to impart unction to thy spirit thine head must have fresh oil poured upon it from the golden horn of the sanctuary, or it will cease from its glory.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you cut him, (John Bunyan) he'd bleed Scripture!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that nothing happens apart from divine determination and decree. We shall never be able to escape from the doctrine of divine predestination - the doctrine that God has foreordained certain people unto eternal life.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Wherever Jesus may lead us, He goes before us. If we don't know where we are going, we know with whom we go.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I looked at God and He looked at me, and we were one forever.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Some people, when they use the word 'salvation', understand nothing more by it than deliverance from hell and admittance into heaven. Now, that is not salvation: those two things are the effects of salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whenever there is a cross to be carried by any of Christ’s followers, He always bears the heavy end on His own shoulders.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
My hope lives not because I am not a sinner, but because I am a sinner for whom Christ died my trust is not that I am holy, but that being unholy, HE is my righteousness. My faith rests not upon what I am or shall be or feel or know, but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me. Hallelujah!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of God's grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who looks sinward has his back to God-he who looks Godward has his back to sin.
Charles Spurgeon
