More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
We are one in Christ let us be friends with one another but let us never be friends with one another’s error. If I be wrong, rebuke me sternly I can bear it, and bear it cheerfully and if ye be wrong, expect the like measure from me, and neither peace nor parley with your mistakes.
Charles Spurgeon
If we want revivals, we must revive our reverence for the Word of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Gospel riches are sent to remove our wretchedness, and mercy to remove our misery.
Charles Spurgeon
I would sooner be holy than happy if the two things could be divorced. Were it possible for a man always to sorrow and yet to be pure, I would choose the sorrow if I might win the purity, for to be free from the power of sin, to be made to love holiness, is true happiness.
Charles Spurgeon
Want of will causes paralysis of every faculty. In spiritual things man is utterly unable because resolvedly unwilling.
Charles Spurgeon
He that knows how to overcome the Lord in prayer, has heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
The gospel is not for you who can save yourselves, but for those who are lost.
Charles Spurgeon
As the rain soaks into the ground, so pray the Lord to let his gospel soak into your soul.
Charles Spurgeon
I believe that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less than God wishes
Charles Spurgeon
May every one of us believe Him better, and have greater thoughts of Him, and never let us be guilty henceforth of confining, as it were, within iron bonds the limitless One of Israel.
Charles Spurgeon
Men will allow God to be everywhere except on his Throne
Charles Spurgeon
When we believe that God hears us, it is but natural that we should be eager to hear Him. Only from Him can come the word which can speak peace to troubled spirits the voices of men are feeble in such a case, a plaster far too narrow for the sore but God's voice is power, He speaks and it is done, and hence when we hear Him our distress is ended.
Charles Spurgeon
Prayer can never be in excess.
Charles Spurgeon
Let us go to Calvary to learn how we may be forgiven. And then let us linger there to learn how to forgive.
Charles Spurgeon
Some people are never content with their lot, let what will happen. Clouds and darkness are over their heads, alike whether it rain or shine. To them every incident is an accident, and every accident a calamity.
Charles Spurgeon
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
It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it but to win souls is far nobler work. How is it that we so soon withdraw from it?
Charles Spurgeon
When home is ruled according to God's Word, angels might be asked to stay a night with us, and they would not find themselves out of their element.
Charles Spurgeon
Shall we keep men in a fool's paradise? Shall we lull them into soft slumbers from which they will awake in hell? Are we to become helpers of their damnation by our smooth speeches? In the name of God, we will not!
Charles Spurgeon
The man who finds the ministry an easy life will also find that it will bring a hard death.
Charles Spurgeon
