So the preacher of the gospel asks your prayers: and it is a part of the duties arising out of the relationship between Christian men that those who are taught should pray for those who teach God's Word.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
The gospel which they so greatly needed they would not have the miracles which Jesus did not always choose to give, they eagerly demanded.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
He bequeaths us His manger, from which to learn how God came down to man, and His cross to teach us how man may go up to God.
Charles Spurgeon

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
We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them.
Charles Spurgeon
Image
