Quote

Trust in God alone, and lean not on the needs of human help. Be not surprised when friends fail you it is a failing world. Never reckon upon immutability in man: inconstancy you may reckon upon without fear of disappointment.

Lost! Lost! Lost! Better a whole world on fire than a soul lost! Better every star quenched and the skies a wreck than a single soul to be lost!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The cry of a young raven is nothing but the natural cry of a creature, but your cry, if it be sincere, is the result of a work of grace in your heart.
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
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.

Image
No matter how good you think yourself to be, you cannot enter heaven unless it is under the terms of sovereign grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God requires of the sinner, dead in sin, that he should take the first step, then he requires just that which renders salvation as impossible under the gospel as it was under the law, since man is as unable to believe as he is to obey.

Image
There is dust enough on some of your Bibles to write 'damnation' with your fingers.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Mi fe no descansa en lo que soy, o lo que seré, o como me siento, o lo que sé, sino en lo que Cristo és, en lo que él ha hecho, y en lo que él está haciendo en mí - My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me.

When preaching and private talk are not available, you need to have a tract ready.Get good striking tracts, or none at all. But a touching gospel tract may be the seed of eternal life. Therefore, do not go out without your tracts.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not great faith, but true faith, that saves and the salvation lies not in the faith, but in the Christ in whom faith trusts...It is not the measure of faith, but the sincerity of faith, which is the point to be considered.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He that reads his Bible to find fault with it will soon discover that the Bible finds fault with him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Depend upon it, since Satan could not kill the church by roaring at her like a lion, he is now trying to crush her by hugging her like a bear.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't you know that day dawns after night, showers displace drought, and spring and summer follow winter? Then, have hope! Hope forever, for God will not fail you!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Conversion is not, as some suppose, a violent opening of the heart by grace, in which will, reason and judgment are all ignored or crushed. The season is not blinded, but enlightened and the whole man is made to act with a glorious liberty which it never knew till it fell under the restraints of grace.

Image
We must mark God's providence leading us and if providence tarries, tarry till providence comes

Image
To wash and dress a corpse is a far different thing from making it alive: Man can do the one--God alone can do the other.

The disciples of a patient Saviour should be patient themselves.

Let us go to Calvary to learn how we may be forgiven. And then let us linger there to learn how to forgive.

The day we find the perfect church, it becomes imperfect the moment we join it.
