Image
Don't drown the man who taught you to swim. If you learned your trade or profession from the man, do not set up in opposition to him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Now and then there comes a crash of thunder in a storm, and we look up with amazement when he sets the heavens on a blaze with his lightning.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Bible in the memory is better than the Bible in the book case.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To be a soul winner is the happiest thing in the world. And with every soul you bring to Jesus Christ, you seem to get a new heaven here upon earth.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
They who seek Christ are already being sought of him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is a general kind of praying which fails for lack of precision. It is as if a regiment of soldiers should all fire off their guns anywhere. Possibly somebody would be killed, but the majority of the enemy would be missed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A vile imagination, once indulged, gets the key of our minds, and can get in again very easily, whether we will or no, and can so return as to bring seven other spirits with it more wicked than itself and what may follow no one knows.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In 40 years I have not spent 15 minutes without thinking of Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we want revivals, we must revive our reverence for the Word of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Look to the cross, and hate your sin, for sin nailed your Well Beloved to the tree.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Gospel riches are sent to remove our wretchedness, and mercy to remove our misery.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Man is a fallen star till he is right with heaven: he is out of order with himself and all around him till he occupies his true place in relation to God. When he serves God, he has reached that point where he doth serve himself best, and enjoys himself most. It is man's honour, it is man's joy, it is man's heaven, to live unto God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The shop, the barn, the scullery, and the smithy become temples when men and women do all to the glory of God! The divine service is not a thing of a few hours and a few places, but all life becomes holiness unto the Lord, and every place and thing, as consecrated as the tabernacle and it's golden candlestick.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Bible is not the light of the world, it is the light of the Church. But the world does not read the Bible, the world reads Christians! “You are the light of the world.”
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Do not go on His errands till first you have sat at His feet.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who affirms that Christianity makes men miserable, is himself an utter stranger to it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When we bless God for mercies, we usually prolong them. When we bless God for miseries, we usually end them. Praise is the honey of life which a devout heart extracts from every bloom of providence and grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer irrigates the fields of life with the waters which are stored up in the reservoirs of promise.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you truly believe in Jesus, it is for life. Saving faith is a life-long act.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I know nothing that can so comfort the soul, so calm the swelling billows of grief and sorrow, so speak peace to the winds of trial, as a devout musing upon the subject of the Godhead.
