Image
Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Oh, the hard, cruel thoughts which men have toward one another when they are angry! They kill and slay a thousand times over. These hasty sins are soon forgotten by us, but they are not forgotten by God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
Be not proud of race, face, place, or grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Said will be a little ahead, but done should follow at his heel.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ. They who preach this truth preach the gospel in whatever else they may be mistaken but they who preach not the atonement, whatever else they declare, have missed the soul and substance of the divine message.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer irrigates the fields of life with the waters which are stored up in the reservoirs of promise.

Dear friends, whenever you want to understand a text of Scripture, try to read the original
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Now and then there comes a crash of thunder in a storm, and we look up with amazement when he sets the heavens on a blaze with his lightning.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man loves his own ruin. The cup is so sweet that though he knows it will poison him, yet he must drink it. And the harlot is so fair, that though he understands that her ways lead down to hell, yet like a bullock he follows to the slaughter till the dart goes through his liver. Man is fascinated and bewitched by sin.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who does not serve God where he is would not serve God anywhere else.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you receive Christ into your heart, He cannot be taken away from you!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Want of will causes paralysis of every faculty. In spiritual things man is utterly unable because resolvedly unwilling.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A sermon without Christ as its beginning, middle, and end is a mistake in conception, a crime in execution.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I believe that very much of current Arminianism is simply ignorance of gospel doctrine and if people began to study their Bibles, and to take the Word of God as they find it, they must inevitably, if believers, rise up to rejoice in the doctrines of grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The religion of both Old and New Testaments is marked by fervent outspoken testimonies against evil. To speak smooth things in such a case may be sentimentalism, but it is not Christianity. It is a betrayal of the cause of truth and righteousness.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Hang that question up in your houses, What would Jesus do? and then think of another, How would Jesus do it? for what he would do, and how he would do it, may always stand as the best guide to us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A man must have a stout digestion to feed upon some men's theology no sap, no sweetness, no life, but all stern accuracy, and fleshless definition. Proclaimed without tenderness, and argued without affection, the gospel from such men rather resembles a missile from a catapult than bread from a Father's hand.

The world's one and only remedy is the cross.

Far be it for me to imagine that Zion contains none but Calvinistic Christians within her walls, or that there are none saved who do not hold our views
