If any man will preach as he should preach, his work will take more out of him than any other labor under heaven (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
What manner of men should ministers be? They should thunder in preaching, and lighten in conversation; they should be flaming in prayer, shining in life, and burning in spirit (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
The faith which saves is not one single act done on a certain day: it is an act continued and persevered in throughout the life of man (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Do you find it difficult to forgive one who has wronged you? Then you will find it difficult to get to heaven (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Faith is a principle which hath its root deeper than feelings. We believe, whether we see or not. We believe, whether we feel or not (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
You will never be saved against your will; God drags nobody to heaven by the ears (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Far better for a man that he had never been born than that he should degrade a pulpit into a show box to exhibit himself in (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
I do not think the devil cares how many churches you build, if only you have lukewarm preachers and people in them (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
The right way usually lies between two extremes: it is the narrow channel between the rock and the whirlpool (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
To know is not to be wise. To know how to use knowledge is to have wisdom (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
I am certain that the safest way to defend your character is never to say a word about it (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
If we are indeed contending for truth and righteousness, let us not tarry till we have talent, or wealth, or any other form of visible power at our disposal; but with such stones as we find in the brook, and with our own usual sling, let us run to meet the enemy (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
If you give your soul up to anything earthly, whether it be the wealth, or the honours, or the pleasures of this world, you might as well hunt after the mirage of the desert or try to collect the mists of the morning, or to store up for yourself the clouds of the sky, for all these things are passing away (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Repentance grows as faith grows. Do not make any mistake about it; repentance is not a thing of days and weeks, a temporary penance to be got over as fast as possible! No; it is the grace of a lifetime, like faith itself. God’s little children repent, and so do the young men and the fathers. Repentance is the inseparable companion of faith (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
To be forgiven is such sweetness that honey is tasteless in comparison with it. But yet there is one thing sweeter still, and that is to forgive. As it is more blessed to give than to receive, so to forgive rises a stage higher in experience than to be forgiven (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Let us be banded together as one man; let us contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints; let us pray with fervour, let us live in holiness, let us preach constantly, and preach with fire, and let us so live, that we may impress our age, and leave our footprints on the sands of time (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
A prayerless church member is a hindrance. He is in the body like a rotting bone or a decayed tooth. Before long, since he does not contribute to the benefit of his brethren, he will become a danger and a sorrow to them. Neglect of private prayer is the locust which devours the strength of the church (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Trials make room for consolation. There is nothing that makes man have a big heart like a great trial. I have found that those people who have no sympathy for their fellows, who never weep for the sorrows of others very seldom have any of their own. Great hearts could be made only by great troubles (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Poor human nature cannot bear such strains as heavenly triumphs bring to it; there must come a reaction. Excess of joy or excitement must be paid for by subsequent depressions. While the trial lasts, the strength is equal to the emergency; but when it is over, natural weakness claims the right to show itself (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
There are no infidels anywhere but on earth: there are none in heaven, and there are none in hell. Atheism is a strange thing. Even the devils never fell into that vice, for the devils believe and tremble. And there are some of the devil’s children that have gone beyond their father in sin, but how will it look when they are for ever lost? (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
The change is radical it gives us new natures, it makes us love what we hated and hate what we loved, it sets us in a new road; it makes our habits different, it makes our thoughts different, it makes us different in private, and different in public (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Nothing is improved by anger, unless it be the arch of a cat’s back. A man with his back up is spoiling his figure. People look none the handsomer for being red in the face. It takes a great deal out of a man to get into a towering rage; it is almost as unhealthy as having a fit... Whatever wrong I suffer, it can not do me half so much hurt as being angry about it (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
The more we pray, the more we shall want to pray. The more we pray, the more we can pray. The more we pray, the more we shall pray. He who prays little will pray less, but he who prays much will pray more. And he who prays more, will desire to pray more abundantly (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
The bridge of grace will bear your weight, brother. Thousands of big sinners have gone across that bridge, yea, tens of thousands have gone over it. Some have been the chief of sinners and some have come at the very last of their days but the arch has never yielded beneath their weight. I will go with them trusting to the same support. It will bear me over as it has for them (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
God does not need your strength: he has more than enough of power of his own. He asks your weakness: he has none of that himself, and he is longing, therefore, to take your weakness, and use it as the instrument in his own mighty hand. Will you not yield your weakness to him, and receive his strength? (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
I would sooner be holy than happy if the two things could be divorced. Were it possible for a man always to sorrow and yet to be pure, I would choose the sorrow if I might win the purity, for to be free from the power of sin, to be made to love holiness, is true happiness (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Your sorrow itself shall be turned into joy. Not the sorrow to be taken away, and joy to be put in its place, but the very sorrow which now grieves you shall be turned into joy. God not only takes away the bitterness and gives sweetness in its place, but turns the bitterness into sweetness itself (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
God has not made this world to be a nest for us, and if we try to make it such for ourselves, he plants thorns in it, so that we may be compelled to mount and find our soul’s true home somewhere else, in a higher and nobler sphere than this poor world can give (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Sometimes a fog will settle over a vessel’s deck and yet leave the topmast clear. Then a sailor goes up aloft and gets a lookout which the helmsman on deck cannot get. So prayer sends the soul aloft; lifts it above the clouds in which our selfishness and egotism befog us, and gives us a chance to see which way to steer (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
Humility is to make a right estimate of one’s self. It is no humility for a man to think less of himself than he ought, though it might rather puzzle him to do that (Charles Spurgeon Quotes)
