Quote

Never fear dying, beloved. Dying is the last, but the least matter that a Christian has to be anxious about. Fear living...that is a hard battle to fight, a stern discipline to endure, a rough voyage to undergo.

A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Oh, to have “the word of Christ” always dwelling inside of us-in the memory, never forgotten in the heart, always loved in the understanding, really grasped with all the powers and passions of the mind fully submitted to its control!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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.

Prayer is the best response to hatred.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If I were a Roman Catholic, I should turn a heretic, in sheer desperation, because I would rather go to heaven than go to purgatory.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
You need not bring life to the scripture. You should draw life from the scripture.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is an unfortunate thing for the Christian to be melancholy. If there is any man in the world that has a right to have a bright, clear face and a flashing eye, it is the man whose sins are forgiven him, who is saved with God's salvation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
As a church we must love Jesus, or else we have lost our reason for existence.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is not a matter of time so much as a matter of heart if you have the heart to pray, you will find the time.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It is a remarkable fact that all the heresies which have arisen in the Christian Church have had a decided tendency to dishonor God and to flatter man.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
When fathers are tongue tied religiously with their offspring, need they wonder if their children's hearts remain sin tied?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It needs more skill than I can tell To play the second fiddle well.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Think not of the sinner or the greatness of his sin, but think of the greatness of the Savior!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
No matter how dear you are to God, if pride is harboured in your spirit, He will whip it out of you. They that go up in their own estimation must come down again by His discipline
Charles Spurgeon
Image
In proportion as a church is holy, in that proportion will its testimony for Christ be powerful.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Sin is no little thing. It girded the Redeemer’s head with thorns, and pierced his heart . . . Look upon all sin as that which crucified the Saviour, and you will see it to be ‘exceeding sinful’.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
Hold everything earthly with a loose hand, but grasp eternal things with a death-like grip
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
When you see no present advantage, walk by faith and not by sight. Do God the honor to trust Him when it comes to matters of loss for the sake of principle.
