More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
To rejoice in temporal comforts is dangerous, to rejoice in self is foolish, to rejoice in sin is fatal, but to rejoice in God is heavenly.
Charles Spurgeon
Sin is a thing of time, but mercy is from everlasting. Transgression is but of yesterday, but mercy was ever of old. Before you and I sought the Lord, the Lord sought us.
Charles Spurgeon
As a church we must love Jesus, or else we have lost our reason for existence.
Charles Spurgeon
O child of God, be more careful to keep the way of the Lord, more concentrated in heart in seeking His glory, and you will see the loving-kindness and the tender mercy of the Lord in your life.
Charles Spurgeon
See yonder another King's garden, which the King waters with his bloody sweat-Gethsemane, whose bitter herbs are sweeter far to renewed souls than even Eden's luscious fruits. There the mischief of the serpent in the first garden was undone: there the curse was lifted from earth, and borne by the woman's promised seed.
Charles Spurgeon
Lord, let me find my life in thee, and not in the mire of this world's favour or gain.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not faith in Christ that saves you (though faith is the instrument) - it is Christ's blood and merits.
Charles Spurgeon
Persecution is the heirloom of the church, and the ensign of the elect.
Charles Spurgeon
Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.
Charles Spurgeon
You never have to drag mercy out of Christ, as money from a miser.
Charles Spurgeon
Pleasure, so called, is the murderer of serious thought. This is the age of excessive amusement. Everybody craves for it, like a babe for its rattle!
Charles Spurgeon
Patience, then, believer, eternity will right the wrongs of time.
Charles Spurgeon
No man ever served God by doing things tomorrow.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not your hold of Christ that saves you, but His hold of you.
Charles Spurgeon
When home is ruled according to God's Word, angels might be asked to stay a night with us, and they would not find themselves out of their element.
Charles Spurgeon
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
The existence of hypocrites does not prove the non-existence of true believers.
Charles Spurgeon
When all else is changing within and around, in God and His mercy no change can be found.
Charles Spurgeon
Neither when we have chosen our way can we keep company with those who go the other way. There must come with the decision for truth a corresponding protest against error.
Charles Spurgeon
God is more ready to forgive me than I am ready to offend.
Charles Spurgeon
