More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Unless you have forgiven others you read your own death warrant when you repeat the Lord's Prayer
Charles Spurgeon
If we do wrong and no harm comes of it, we are not thereby justified. If we did evil and good came of it, the evil would be just as evil. It is not the result of the action, but the action itself which God weighs.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no other salvation except that which begins and ends with grace.
Charles Spurgeon
Do not go on His errands till first you have sat at His feet.
Charles Spurgeon
Men will never be great in theology until they are great in suffering.
Charles Spurgeon
You have need to pray to God, not only to help you in your troubles--but to help you in your blessings
Charles Spurgeon
Sorrow for sin should be the keenest sorrow joy in the Lord should be the loftiest joy.
Charles Spurgeon
I looked at God and He looked at me, and we were one forever.
Charles Spurgeon
Let me say that for comfort, there is no thought more full of sweetness than that of an eternal God engaged in Christ Jesus to His people to love, and bless, and save them all. One Who has made them the distinguished objects of His discriminating regard from all eternity, it is the eternal God.
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
Without Christ there is no hope.
Charles Spurgeon
I believe that one reason why the church of God at this present moment has so little influence over the world is because the world has so much influence over the church.
Charles Spurgeon
The glory of the salvation of souls belongs to God, and to Him alone.
Charles Spurgeon
Faith is led confidently to expect what reason would never suggest.
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
Praise is the rehearsal of our eternal song. By grace we learn to sing, and in glory we continue to sing. What will some of you do when you get to heaven, if you go on grumbling all the way? Do not hope to get to heaven in that style. But now begin to bless the name of the Lord.
Charles Spurgeon
I shall never understand, even in heaven, why the Lord Jesus should ever have loved me.
Charles Spurgeon
From the descent of the Holy Spirit at the beginning we may learn something concerning His operations at the present time. Remember at the outset that whatever the Holy Spirit was at the first, He is that now, for as God, He remains forever the same-whatever He did then He is able to do still, for His power is by no means diminished.
Charles Spurgeon
It is not faith in Christ that saves you (though faith is the instrument) - it is Christ's blood and merits.
Charles Spurgeon
When God accepts a sinner, He is, in fact, only accepting Christ. He looks into the sinner's eyes, and He sees His own dear Son's image there, and He takes him in.
