More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
It has been well said that if a great king should bring us a great heap of gold, and bid us take as much as we could count in a day, we should make a long day of it but to win souls is far nobler work. How is it that we so soon withdraw from it?
Charles Spurgeon
God never punishes his children in the sense of avenging justice. He chastens as a father does his child, but he never punishes his redeemed as a judge does a criminal. It is unjust to exact punishment from redeemed souls since Christ has been punished in their place. How shall the Lord punish twice for one offense?
Charles Spurgeon
It is the very joy of this earthly life to think that it will come to an end.
Charles Spurgeon
He that reads his Bible to find fault with it will soon discover that the Bible finds fault with him.
Charles Spurgeon
It's a good thing God chose me before I was born, because he surely would not have afterwards.
Charles Spurgeon
Salvation is all grace, which means, free, gratis, for nothing.
Charles Spurgeon
Too many think lightly of sin, and therefore think lightly of the Savior.
Charles Spurgeon
...the power of prayer can never be overrated. They who cannot serve God by preaching need not regret. If a man can but pray he can do anything. He who knows how to overcome with God in prayer has Heaven and earth at his disposal.
Charles Spurgeon
Carve your name on hearts, not on marble
Charles Spurgeon
Satan always hates Christian fellowship it is his policy to keep Christians apart. Anything which can divide saints from one another he delights in. He attaches far more importance to godly intercourse than we do. Since union is strength, he does his best to promote separation.
Charles Spurgeon
Men are in a restless pursuit after satisfaction and earthly things. They have no forethought for their eternal state, the present hour absorbs them. They turn to another and another of earth's broken cisterns, hoping to find water, where not a drop was ever discovered yet.
Charles Spurgeon
The man who, despite the teaching of Scripture, tries to pray without a Savior, insults the deity.
Charles Spurgeon
The gospel is not for you who can save yourselves, but for those who are lost.
Charles Spurgeon
Christ came to bring healing to those who are spiritually sick-you say that you are perfectly well, so you must go your own way and Christ will go in another direction-towar ds sinners.
Charles Spurgeon
Every sufferer who bears pain, or slander, or loss, or personal unkindness for Christ’s sake, is filling up that amount of suffering which is necessary to the bringing together of the whole body of Christ, and the upbuilding of His elect Church.
Charles Spurgeon
If we want revivals, we must revive our reverence for the Word of God.
Charles Spurgeon
Rest time is not waste time. It is economy to gather fresh strength... It is wisdom to take occasional furlough. In the long run, we shall do more by sometimes doing less.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not all darkness in a heart which can cry, My God.
Charles Spurgeon
To be cast down is often the best thing that can happen to us.
Charles Spurgeon
This is the holy reasoning of love it draws no license from grace, but rather feels the strong constraints of gratitude leading it to holiness.
