More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
We may expect answers to prayer, and should not be easy without them any more than we should be if we had written a letter to a friend upon important business, and had received no reply.
Charles Spurgeon
Pardon ever follows sincere repentence.
Charles Spurgeon
The work of God's Holy Spirit begins with bruising. In order to be saved, the fallow ground must be plowed up, the hard heart must be broken, the rock must be split apart.
Charles Spurgeon
If our faith can live without God, it is not divinely created. If God had begotten it, it would wait upon Him as the flowers wait upon the dew.
Charles Spurgeon
You will never know God's strength until He has supported you in deep waters.
Charles Spurgeon
The goal of prayer is the ear of God.
Charles Spurgeon
It is better to preach five words of God’s Word than five million words of man’s wisdom.

Charles Spurgeon
Great hearts can only be made by great troubles. The spade of trouble digs the reservoir of comfort deeper, and makes more room for consolation.
Charles Spurgeon
God's thoughts of you are many, let not yours be few in return.
Charles Spurgeon
Whether we like it or not, asking is the rule of the kingdom
Charles Spurgeon
A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no repentance where a man can talk lightly of sin, much less where he can speak tenderly and lovingly of it.
Charles Spurgeon
Little learning and much pride come of hasty reading.
Charles Spurgeon
The Providence of God is the great protector of our life and usefulness, and under the divine care we are perfectly safe from danger.
Charles Spurgeon
I do not know if there is a more dreadful word in the English language than that word lost.
Charles Spurgeon
A church is a soul-saving company or it is nothing.
Charles Spurgeon
