More quotes by Charles Spurgeon

Image
I know nothing that can so comfort the soul, so calm the swelling billows of grief and sorrow, so speak peace to the winds of trial, as a devout musing upon the subject of the Godhead.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
True prayer is the trading of the heart with God.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Trials teach us what we are.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Be dogmatically true, obstinately holy, immovably honest, desperately kind, fixedly upright.
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?
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We are too prone to engrave our trials in marble and write our blessings in sand.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
No man ever served God by doing things tomorrow.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He who is not angry at transgression becomes a partaker in it.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
If we had to preach to thousands year after year, and never rescued but one soul, that one soul would be a full reward for all our labour, for a soul is of countless price.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The Word of God will be to you a bulwark and a high tower, a castle of defense against the foe. Oh, see to it that the Word of God is in you, in your very soul, permeating your thoughts, and so operating upon your outward life, that all may know you to be a true Bible-Christian, for they perceive it in your words and deeds.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is hardship in everything except eating pancakes.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God is too good to be unkind and He is too wise to be mistaken. And when we cannot trace His hand, we must trust His heart. When you are so weak that you cannot do much more than cry, you coin diamonds with both your eyes. The sweetest prayers God ever hears are the groans and sighs of those who have no hope in anything but his love.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Christ is the great central fact in the world's history. To Him everything looks forward or backward. All the lines of history converge upon Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
It's a good thing God chose me before I was born, because he surely would not have afterwards.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We ought not to tolerate for a minute the ghastly and grievous thought that God will not answer prayer.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God has a way of giving by the cartloads to those who give away by shovelfuls.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
A sermon wept over is more acceptable with God than one gloried over.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
One of the greatest rewards that we ever receive for serving God is the permission to do still more for Him.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Morality is a neat cover for foul venom, but it does not alter the fact that the heart is vile, and the man himself is under damnation. Men will be damned with good works as well as without them, if they make them their confidence (rather than Jesus Christ).
