Image
When you go through a trial, the sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which you lay your head.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I am a pilgrim in the world, but at home in my God. In the earth I wander, but in God I dwell in a quiet habitation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
As well might a gnat seek to drink in the ocean, as a finite creature to comprehend the Eternal God. A God whom we could understand would be no God. If we could grasp Him, He could not be infinite. If we could understand Him, He could not be divine.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When all else is changing within and around, in God and His mercy no change can be found.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Christians are not so much in danger when they are persecuted as when they are admired.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Oh, the stoop of the Redeemer's amazing love! Let us, henceforth, contend how low we can go side by side with Him, but remember when we have gone to the lowest He descends lower still, so that we can truly feel that the very lowest place is too high for us, because He has gone lower still.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more holy a man becomes, the more conscious he is of unholiness.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Far be it for me to imagine that Zion contains none but Calvinistic Christians within her walls, or that there are none saved who do not hold our views
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I do believe we slander Christ when we think we are to draw the people by something else but the preaching of Christ crucified.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
All the hope of our ministry lies in the Spirit of God operating on the spirits of men.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Prayer pulls the rope below and the great bell rings above in the ears of God. Some scarcely stir the bell, for they pray so languidly. Others give but an occasional pluck at the rope. But he who wins with heaven is the man who grasps the rope boldly and pulls continuously, with all his might.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not the strength of your faith that saves you, but the strength of Him upon whom you rely! Christ is able to save you if you come to Him-be your faith weak or be it strong.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God is too good to be unkind, too wise to be mistaken and when you cannot trace His hand, you can trust His heart.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If you are saved, the work is only half done until you are employed to bring others to Christ.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Neither when we have chosen our way can we keep company with those who go the other way. There must come with the decision for truth a corresponding protest against error.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We Christians do not believe that Jesus Christ was the only one that ever rose from the dead. We believe that every death-bed is a resurrection that from every grave the stone, is rolled away.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We ought not to tolerate for a minute the ghastly and grievous thought that God will not answer prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The world will never be converted to God unitl Christians cry less and laugh and sing more.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In all states of dilemma or of difficulty, prayer is an available source. The ship of prayer may sail through all temptations, doubts and fears, straight up to the throne of God and though she may be outward bound with only griefs, and groans, and sighs, she shall return freighted with a wealth of blessings!

Nobody can do as much damage to the church of God as the man who is within its walls, but not within its life.
