More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Let me be as the bullock which stands between the plough and the altar, to work or to be sacrificed and let my motto be, Ready for either.
Charles Spurgeon
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
You will win as many souls as God gives you, but no one will be converted by your own power.
Charles Spurgeon
That conversion which is all joy and lacks sorrow for sin, is very questionable.
Charles Spurgeon
Our best performances are so stained with sin, that it is hard to know whether they are good works or bad works.
Charles Spurgeon
It is a great joy to believe that Jesus has been tempted in all points just as we are.
Charles Spurgeon
I am not the only one that condemns the idle for once when I was going to give our minister a pretty long list of the sins of one of our people that he was asking after, I began with, He's dreadfully lazy. That's enough, said the old gentleman all sorts of sins are in that one.
Charles Spurgeon
Complicity with error will take from the best of men the power to enter any successful protest against it.
Charles Spurgeon
A sermon wept over is more acceptable with God than one gloried over.
Charles Spurgeon
When I cease to preach salvation by faith in Jesus put me into a lunatic asylum, for you may be sure that my mind is gone.
Charles Spurgeon
It is the whole business of the whole church to preach the whole gospel to the whole world.
Charles Spurgeon
Birds sing on a bare bough O, believer, canst not thou?
Charles Spurgeon
The saints shall persevere in holiness, because God perseveres in grace.
Charles Spurgeon
I would rather lay my soul asoak in half a dozen verses [of the Bible] all day than rinse my hand in several chapters.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not great faith, but true faith, that saves and the salvation lies not in the faith, but in the Christ in whom faith trusts...It is not the measure of faith, but the sincerity of faith, which is the point to be considered.
Charles Spurgeon
Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of God's grace.
Charles Spurgeon
When you desire to be most alive to God, you will generally find sin most alive to repel you.
Charles Spurgeon
All places are places of worship to a Christian. Wherever he is, he ought to be in a worshiping frame of mind.
Charles Spurgeon
Not for yourself, O church, do you exist, any more than Christ existed for himself.
Charles Spurgeon
To me, Calvinism means the placing of the eternal God at the head of all things.
