Charles Spurgeon
Said will be a little ahead, but done should follow at his heel.
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
We shall not adjust our Bible to the age but before we have done with it, by God’s grace, we shall adjust the age to the Bible.
Charles Spurgeon
When all else is changing within and around, in God and His mercy no change can be found.
Charles Spurgeon
I would sooner bring one sinner to Jesus Christ than unravel all the mysteries of the divine Word, for salvation is the one thing we are to live for.
Charles Spurgeon
It is a terribly easy matter to be a minister of the gospel and a vile hypocrite at the same time.
Charles Spurgeon
He who fears God has nothing else to fear.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who, despite the teaching of Scripture, tries to pray without a Savior, insults the deity.
Charles Spurgeon
Men turn their faces to hell, and hope to get to heaven why don't they walk into the horsepond, and hope to be dry?.
