More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Have your heart right with Christ, and he will visit you often, and so turn weekdays into Sundays, meals into sacraments, homes into temples, and earth into heaven.
Charles Spurgeon
If He has said much about prayer, it is because He knows we have much need of it.
Charles Spurgeon
Backsliders begin with dusty Bibles and end with filthy garments.
Charles Spurgeon
Christ also takes from us all inclination or power to boast of our national prestige. To me, it is prestige enough to be a Christian--to bear the cross Christ gives me to carry and to follow in the footsteps of the great Crossbearer.
Charles Spurgeon
Our best performances are so stained with sin, that it is hard to know whether they are good works or bad works.
Charles Spurgeon
Having made Jesus your all, you shall find your all in Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
We must teach plainly that the faith which saves the soul is not a dead faith, but a faith which operates with purifying effect upon our entire nature, and produces in us fruits of righteousness to the praise and glory of God.
Charles Spurgeon

I am not the only one that condemns the idle for once when I was going to give our minister a pretty long list of the sins of one of our people that he was asking after, I began with, He's dreadfully lazy. That's enough, said the old gentleman all sorts of sins are in that one.
Charles Spurgeon
We need winds and tempests to exercise our faith, to tear off the rotten bough of self-dependence, and to root us more firmly in Christ. The day of evil reveals to us the value of our glorious hope.
Charles Spurgeon
Must is a hard nut to crack, but it has a sweet kernel.
Charles Spurgeon
Learn to say no it will be of more use to you than to be able to read Latin.
Charles Spurgeon
The Book of Proverbs deals very hard blows against sluggards, and Christian ministers do well frequently to denounce the great sin of idleness, which is the mother of a huge family of sins.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no exception to this rule: All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant. They say there is no rule without an exception, but there is an exception to that rule.
Charles Spurgeon
We say that Christ so died that He infallibly secured the salvation of a multitude that no man can number, who through Christ's death not only may be saved, but are saved, must be saved, and cannot by any possibility run the hazard of being anything but saved.
Charles Spurgeon
If I knew I had 25 years left to live, I would spend 20 of them in preparation.
Charles Spurgeon
Every hour of every day, God is richly blessing us both when we sleep and when we wake His mercy waits upon us.
