It is a very solemn delusion when ministers think they are prospering, and yet do not hear of conversions.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Be sure, whatever you leave out, that you teach the children the three R’s,-Ruin, Redemption, and Regeneration.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
There is no fatigue so wearisome as that which comes from lack of work.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Depend upon it, since Satan could not kill the church by roaring at her like a lion, he is now trying to crush her by hugging her like a bear.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Surely if men's hearts were right, short sermons would be enough.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I am a pilgrim in the world, but at home in my God. In the earth I wander, but in God I dwell in a quiet habitation.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Men will allow God to be everywhere except on his Throne
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I would to God that saints would cling to Christ half as earnestly as sinners cling to the devil. If we were as willing to suffer for God as some are to suffer for their lusts, what perseverance and zeal would be seen on all sides!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
I believe that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less than God wishes
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Don't you know that day dawns after night, showers displace drought, and spring and summer follow winter? Then, have hope! Hope forever, for God will not fail you!
Charles Spurgeon
Image
We venture to assert, that if there be any day in the year, of which we may be pretty sure that it was not the day on which the Savior was born, it is the 25th of December. Regarding not the day, let us, nevertheless, give thanks to God for the gift of His dear Son.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The world will never be converted to God unitl Christians cry less and laugh and sing more.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The devil never tempted a man whom he found judiciously employed.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
I do not think the devil cares how many churches you build, if only you have lukewarm preachers and people in them.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
God's children are God's children anywhere and everywhere, and shall be even unto the end. Nothing can sever that sacred tie, or divide us from his heart.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
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
Image
Every sufferer who bears pain, or slander, or loss, or personal unkindness for Christ’s sake, is filling up that amount of suffering which is necessary to the bringing together of the whole body of Christ, and the upbuilding of His elect Church.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
Many a text [of Scripture] is written in a secret ink which must be held to the fire of adversity to make it visible.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
To wash and dress a corpse is a far different thing from making it alive: Man can do the one--God alone can do the other.
