He would have us like children who believe what their father tells them.
Charles Spurgeon
I would as soon pray to God with machinery as to sing to God with machinery.
Charles Spurgeon
Men are in a restless pursuit after satisfaction and earthly things. They have no forethought for their eternal state, the present hour absorbs them. They turn to another and another of earth's broken cisterns, hoping to find water, where not a drop was ever discovered yet.
Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God.

Charles Spurgeon
Sin is sovereign till sovereign grace dethrones it.
Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
We shall never see much change for the better in our churches in general till the prayer meeting occupies a higher place in the esteem of Christians.
Charles Spurgeon
To think that before the hills were formed, or the channels of the sea were scooped out, God loved me that from everlasting to everlasting His mercy is upon His people. Is not that a consolation?
Charles Spurgeon
The Lord's people have always been a waiting people.
Charles Spurgeon
When you receive Christ into your heart, He cannot be taken away from you!
Charles Spurgeon
There are, in truth, but two denominations upon this earth: the Church and the world.
Charles Spurgeon
A man who does nothing never has time to do anything
Charles Spurgeon
Whenever God means to make a man great, he always breaks him in pieces first.
Charles Spurgeon
