More quotes by Charles Spurgeon
If you wish to know God, you must know his Word. If you wish to perceive His power, you must see how He works by his Word. If you wish to know His purpose before it comes to pass, you can only discover it by His Word.
Charles Spurgeon
We are not called to proclaim philosophy and metaphysics, but the simple gospel. Man's fall, his need of a new birth, forgiveness through atonement, and salvation as the result of faith, these are our battle-ax and weapons of war.
Charles Spurgeon
Wherever Jesus may lead us, He goes before us. If we don't know where we are going, we know with whom we go.
Charles Spurgeon
Man's wonder grows with his knowledge.
Charles Spurgeon
He that reads his Bible to find fault with it will soon discover that the Bible finds fault with him.
Charles Spurgeon
There is no repentance where a man can talk lightly of sin, much less where he can speak tenderly and lovingly of it.
Charles Spurgeon
Show me 12 drunkards and I will show you 12 nagging wives.

Charles Spurgeon
Be assured, there is nothing new in theology except that which is false.
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
Persecution is the heirloom of the church, and the ensign of the elect.
Charles Spurgeon
Winners of souls must first be weepers for souls.
Charles Spurgeon
Fiery trials make golden Christians.
Charles Spurgeon
No man ever served God by doing things tomorrow.
Charles Spurgeon
Man is a fallen star till he is right with heaven: he is out of order with himself and all around him till he occupies his true place in relation to God. When he serves God, he has reached that point where he doth serve himself best, and enjoys himself most. It is man's honour, it is man's joy, it is man's heaven, to live unto God.
Charles Spurgeon
If Christ were only a cistern we might soon exhaust his fullness but who can drain a fountain?
Charles Spurgeon
If I had only one more sermon to preach before I died, it would be about my Lord Jesus Christ. And I think that when we get to the end of our ministry, one of our regrets will be that we did not preach more of him.
Charles Spurgeon
A village is a hive of glass, where nothing unobserved can pass.
