Image
It seems to me that doubt is worse than trial. I had sooner suffer any affliction than be left to question the gospel or my own interest in it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The more grace we have, the less we shall think of ourselves, for grace, like light, reveals our impurity.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Trials teach us what we are they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Whether we like it or not, asking is the rule of the kingdom
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Blessed are the peacemakers, and one sure way of peacemaking is to let the fire of contention alone. Neither fan it, nor stir it, nor add fuel to it, but let it go out by itself. Begin your ministry with one blind eye and one deaf ear.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Trust in the person's promise who dares to refuse what they fear they cannot perform.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is nothing so deluded as feelings. Christians cannot live by feelings. Let me further tell you that many feelings are the work of Satan, for they are not right feelings. What right have you to set up your feelings against the Word of Christ?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Do not despair, dear heart, but come to the Lord with all your jagged wounds, black bruises, and running sores. He alone can heal, and He delights to do it. It is our Lord's office to bind up the brokenhearted, and He is gloriously at home at it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We shall not grow weary of waiting upon God if we remember how long and how graciously He once waited for us.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If God lights the candle, none can blow it out.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When you speak of heaven, let your face light up let it be irradiated by a heavenly gleam let your eyes shine with reflected glory. But when you speak of hell, your ordinary expression will do.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would sooner bring one sinner to Jesus Christ than unravel all the mysteries of the divine Word, for salvation is the one thing we are to live for.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Death has no sting to a Believer. Once death was the penalty of sin-sin being forgiven, the penalty ceases and Christians do not die, now, as a punishment for their sin, but they die that they may be prepared to live!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If your religion does not make you holy, it will damn you. It is simply painted pageantry to go to hell in.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would rather teach one man to pray than ten men to preach.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Is it not a sad thing that after all Christ's love to us, we should repay it with lukewarm love to Him?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We want to assure you...that if you seek Him you will find Him. Jesus casts out none who come unto Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
My brethren, do you believe in the Holy Ghost?...Have we such a reliance upon the Holy Ghost? Do we believe that, at this moment, He can clothe us with power, even as He did the apostles at Pentecost? Do we believe that, under our preaching, by His energy a thousand might be born in a day?

Our great object of glorifying God is to be mainly achieved by the winning of souls Do not close a single sermon without addressing the ungodly.
Charles Spurgeon

Preach not calmly and quietly as though you were asleep, but preach with fire and pathos and passion.
Charles Spurgeon
