To trifle with Scripture is to deprive yourself of its aid. Reverence it, and look up to God with devout gratitude for having given it to you.

Fine music without devotion is but a splendid garment upon a corpse.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is nothing so deluded as feelings. Christians cannot live by feelings. Let me further tell you that many feelings are the work of Satan, for they are not right feelings. What right have you to set up your feelings against the Word of Christ?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Trust in the person's promise who dares to refuse what they fear they cannot perform.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not well to make great changes in old age.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who does not serve God where he is would not serve God anywhere else.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Believing right doctrine will no more save you, than doing good works will save you.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If the giving of the Law, while it was yet unbroken, was attended with such a display of awe-inspiring power, what will that day be when the Lord shall, with flaming fire, take vengeance on those who have willfully broken that Law?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Our motto is, With God, anywhere: without God, nowhere.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There are no infidels anywhere but on earth: there are none in heaven, and there are none in hell. Atheism is a strange thing. Even the devils never fell into that vice, for the devils believe and tremble. And there are some of the devil's children that have gone beyond their father in sin, but how will it look when they are for ever lost?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The first link between my soul and Christ is not my goodness but my badness, not my merit but my misery, not my riches but my need.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Habits, soft and pliant at first, are like some coral stones, which are easily cut when first quarried, but soon become hard as adamant.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whether we like it or not, asking is the rule of the Kingdom. If you may have everything by asking in His Name, and nothing without asking, I beg you to see how absolutely vital prayer is.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We cannot play at preaching. We preach for eternity.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you have to give a carnival to get people to come to church, then you will have to keep giving carnivals to keep them coming back.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When all else is changing within and around, in God and His mercy no change can be found.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We venture to assert, that if there be any day in the year, of which we may be pretty sure that it was not the day on which the Savior was born, it is the 25th of December. Regarding not the day, let us, nevertheless, give thanks to God for the gift of His dear Son.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I do not believe that any man can preach the gospel who does not preach the Law.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He bequeaths us His manger, from which to learn how God came down to man, and His cross to teach us how man may go up to God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I have noticed that whenever a person gives up his belief in the Word of God because it requires that he should believe a good deal, his unbelief requires him to believe a great deal more. If there be any difficulties in the faith of Christ, they are not one-tenth as great as the absurdities in any system of unbelief which seeks to take its place.

It does not spoil your happiness to confess your sin. The unhappiness is in not making the confession.
