More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Think not of the sinner or the greatness of his sin, but think of the greatness of the Savior!
Charles Spurgeon
Holy service in constant fellowship with God is heaven below
Charles Spurgeon
Don't just throw the seed at the people! Grind it into flour, bake it into bread, and slice it for them. And it wouldn't hurt to put a little honey on it
Charles Spurgeon
I do not preach doubtingly, for I do not live doubtingly.
Charles Spurgeon
A prayerless church member is a hindrance. He is in the body like a rotting bone or a decayed tooth. Before long, since he does not contribute to the benefit of his brethren, he will become a danger and a sorrow to them. Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church.
Charles Spurgeon
I do not believe that any man can preach the gospel who does not preach the Law.
Charles Spurgeon
A man's contentment is in his mind, not in the extent of his possessions. Alexander the Great, with all the world at his feet, cries for another world to conquer.
Charles Spurgeon
I would not choose to go where I would be afraid to die, nor could I bear to live without a good hope for hereafter.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who, despite the teaching of Scripture, tries to pray without a Savior, insults the deity.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not your hold of Christ that saves you, but His hold of you.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who is deeply discontented with himself is probably growing fast into the full likeness of Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
If we complained less, and praised more, we should be happier, and God would be more glorified.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer must not be our chance work but our daily business, our habit and vocation.
Charles Spurgeon
When we believe that God hears us, it is but natural that we should be eager to hear Him. Only from Him can come the word which can speak peace to troubled spirits the voices of men are feeble in such a case, a plaster far too narrow for the sore but God's voice is power, He speaks and it is done, and hence when we hear Him our distress is ended.
Charles Spurgeon
Man is a fallen star till he is right with heaven: he is out of order with himself and all around him till he occupies his true place in relation to God. When he serves God, he has reached that point where he doth serve himself best, and enjoys himself most. It is man's honour, it is man's joy, it is man's heaven, to live unto God.
Charles Spurgeon
The moment the church of God shall despise the pulpit, God will despise her.
Charles Spurgeon
Give because you love to give - as the flower pours forth its perfume.
Charles Spurgeon
Jesus poured out his soul in life before he poured it out unto death
Charles Spurgeon
Those who dive in the sea of affliction bring up rare pearls.
Charles Spurgeon
If Christ were only a cistern we might soon exhaust his fullness but who can drain a fountain?
Charles Spurgeon
