More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
When we ask of the Lord coolly, and not fervently, we do as it were, stop His hand, and restrain Him from giving us the very blessing we pretend that we are seeking.
Charles Spurgeon
If we are indeed contending for truth and righteousness, let us not tarry till we have talent, or wealth, or any other form of visible power at our disposal but with such stones as we find in the brook, and with our own usual sling, let us run to meet the enemy.
Charles Spurgeon
Christ also takes from us all inclination or power to boast of our national prestige. To me, it is prestige enough to be a Christian--to bear the cross Christ gives me to carry and to follow in the footsteps of the great Crossbearer.
Charles Spurgeon
Praying without fervency is like hunting with a dead dog.
Charles Spurgeon
Remember, Christ's scholars must study upon their knees.
Charles Spurgeon
It is wonderful how God works by our hands, and yet His own hand does it all.
Charles Spurgeon
Too many think lightly of sin, and therefore think lightly of the Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
Faith is believing that Christ is what he is said to be, and that he will do what he has promised to do, and then to expect this of him.
Charles Spurgeon
You say, 'If I had a little more, I should be very satisfied.' You make a mistake. If you are not content with what you have, you would not be satisfied if it were doubled.
Charles Spurgeon
Serve God with integrity, and if you achieve no success, at least no sin will lie upon your conscience.
Charles Spurgeon
God is so boundlessly pleased with Jesus that in him he is altogether well pleased with us.
Charles Spurgeon
See yonder another King's garden, which the King waters with his bloody sweat-Gethsemane, whose bitter herbs are sweeter far to renewed souls than even Eden's luscious fruits. There the mischief of the serpent in the first garden was undone: there the curse was lifted from earth, and borne by the woman's promised seed.
Charles Spurgeon
Every generation needs regeneration
Charles Spurgeon
True prayer is neither a mere mental exercise nor a vocal performance. It is a spiritual commerce with the Creator of heaven and earth.
Charles Spurgeon
To-morrow even may bring the final reckoning.
Charles Spurgeon
Without Christ there is no hope.
Charles Spurgeon
Live in such a way that men may recognize that you have been with Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon
Men will never be great in theology until they are great in suffering.
Charles Spurgeon
Affliction of itself does not sanctify any body, but the reverse. I believe in sanctified afflictions, but not in sanctifying afflictions.
Charles Spurgeon
As the rain soaks into the ground, so pray the Lord to let his gospel soak into your soul.
Charles Spurgeon
