More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
The Christian is the most contented man in the world, but he is the least contented with the world. He is like a traveler in an inn, perfectly satisfied with the inn and its accommodation, considering it as an inn, but putting quite out of all consideration the idea of making it his home.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If any man thinks ill of you, do not be angry with him, for you are worse than he thinks you to be.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer is one of the necessary wheels of the machinery of providence.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Never, for fear of feeble man, restrain your witness.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God does not save men by truth, he certainly will not save them by lies. And if the old gospel is not competent to work a revival, then we will do without the revival.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Patience, then, believer, eternity will right the wrongs of time.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is not land beneath the sun where there is an open Bible and a preached gospel, where a tyrant long can hold his place... Let the Bible be opened to be read by all men, and no tyrant can long rule in peace... The religion of Jesus makes men think, and to make men think is always dangerous to a despot's power.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Love to Jesus is the basis of all true piety, and the intensity of this love will ever be the measure of our zeal for His glory. Let us love Him with all our hearts, and then diligent labor, and consistent living will be sure to follow.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We need winds and tempests to exercise our faith, to tear off the rotten bough of self-dependence, and to root us more firmly in Christ. The day of evil reveals to us the value of our glorious hope.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Bread is a second cause the LORD Himself is the first source of our sustenance. He can work without the second cause as well as with it and we must not tie Him down to one mode of operation. Let us not be too eager after the visible, but let us look to the invisible God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True prayer is measured by weight, not by length
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you are instructed by affliction, you can become a comforter to the afflicted.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God calls you to be a minister, don't stoop to becoming a king.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
If you were God’s children you would loathe the very thought of the world’s evil joys, and your question would not be, “How far may we be like the world?” but your one cry would be, “How far can we get away from the world? How much can we come out from it?

Image
The more grace we have, the less we shall think of ourselves, for grace, like light, reveals our impurity.

It is far easier to fight with sin in public than to pray against it in private.

Master those books you have. Read them thoroughly. Bathe in them until they saturate you. Read and re-read them...digest them...a student will find that his mental constitution is more affected by one book thoroughly mastered than by 20 books he has merely skimmed.

When your will is God's will, you will have your will.

You will win as many souls as God gives you, but no one will be converted by your own power.
