More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Only he is fit to preach who cannot avoid preaching, who feels that woe is upon him unless he preach the gospel
Charles Spurgeon
All good is born in prayer, and all good springs from it.
Charles Spurgeon
If I had never joined a church till I had found one that was perfect, I should never have joined one at all and the moment I did join it, if I had found one, I should have spoiled it, for it would not have been a perfect church after I had become a member of it. Still, imperfect as it is, it is the dearest place on earthto us.
Charles Spurgeon
Sincerity makes the very least person to be of more value than the most talented hypocrite.
Charles Spurgeon
We must mark God's providence leading us and if providence tarries, tarry till providence comes
Charles Spurgeon
As well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend the Eternal God. A God whom we could understand would be no God. If we could grasp Him, He could not be infinite. If we could understand Him, He could not be divine.
Charles Spurgeon
They must be slain by the Law before they can be made alive by the gospel.
Charles Spurgeon
Having made Jesus your all, you shall find your all in Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Wash your face every morning in a bath of praise.
Charles Spurgeon
We live charmed lives if we are living in the center of God's will. All the attacks that Satan can hurl against us are not only powerless to harm us, but are turned into blessing on the way.
Charles Spurgeon
Though you have changed a thousand times, He has not changed once.
Charles Spurgeon
Let this one great, gracious, glorious fact lie in your spirit until it permeates all your thoughts and makes you rejoice even though you are without strength. Rejoice that the Lord Jesus has become your strength and your song - He has become your salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
From the descent of the Holy Spirit at the beginning we may learn something concerning His operations at the present time. Remember at the outset that whatever the Holy Spirit was at the first, He is that now, for as God, He remains forever the same-whatever He did then He is able to do still, for His power is by no means diminished.
Charles Spurgeon
When you see no present advantage, walk by faith and not by sight. Do God the honor to trust Him when it comes to matters of loss for the sake of principle.
Charles Spurgeon
In all states of dilemma or of difficulty, prayer is an available source. The ship of prayer may sail through all temptations, doubts and fears, straight up to the throne of God and though she may be outward bound with only griefs, and groans, and sighs, she shall return freighted with a wealth of blessings!
Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is measured by weight, not by length
Charles Spurgeon
You are as much serving God in looking after your own children, & training them up in God’s fear, & minding the house, & making your household a church for God, as you would be if you had been called to lead an army to battle for the Lord of hosts.
Charles Spurgeon
Oh, the stoop of the Redeemer's amazing love! Let us, henceforth, contend how low we can go side by side with Him, but remember when we have gone to the lowest He descends lower still, so that we can truly feel that the very lowest place is too high for us, because He has gone lower still.
Charles Spurgeon
That conversion which is all joy and lacks sorrow for sin, is very questionable.
Charles Spurgeon
Friendship is one of the sweetest joys of life. Many might have failed beneath the bitterness of their trial had they not found a friend.
Charles Spurgeon
