What bliss to be a perfectly pardoned soul! What riches of grace does free forgiveness exhibit! To forgive all, to forgive fully, to forgive freely, to forgive ever! Here is a constellation of wonders; and when I think of how great my sins were, how dear were the precious drops which cleansed me from them, I am in a maze of wondering worshiping affection!
– Charles Spurgeon –
Nobody ever outgrows Scripture; the book widens and deepens with our years.
– Charles Spurgeon –
He who lives without prayer – he who lives with little prayer – he who seldom reads the Word – he who seldom looks up to heaven for a fresh influence from on high – he will be the man whose heart will become dry and barren; but he who calls in secret on his God – who spends much time in holy retirement – who delights to meditate on the words of the Most High – whose soul is given up to Christ – such a man must have an overflowing heart; and as his heart is, such will his life be.
– Charles Spurgeon –
Cheerful holiness is the most forcible of sermons.
– Charles Spurgeon –
If a man had to wade breast deep through a thousand hells to obtain Christ–it would be well worth the venture, if at the last he might but say, “My Beloved is mine–and I am His!”
– Charles Spurgeon –
Do you desire to subdue sin? Would you be holy? Would you imitate your Master? Do you desire to rise to superlative heights of spirituality? Are you wanting to be made like the angels of God, full of zeal and ardor for the Master’s cause? You cannot without the Spirit: “Without Me you can do nothing.” Oh branch of the vine, you can have no fruit without the sap! Oh child of God, you have no life within you apart from the life which God gives you through His Spirit!
– Charles Spurgeon –
The first thing for our soul’s health, the first thing for His glory, and the first thing for our own usefulness, is to keep ourselves in perpetual communion with the Lord Jesus…
– Charles Spurgeon –
Oh! man, learn to reject pride, seeing that thou hast no reason for it; whatever thou art, thou hast nothing to make thee proud. The more thou hast, the more thou art in debt to God; and thou shouldst not be proud of that which renders thee a debtor.
– Charles Spurgeon –
Cheerfulness is the support of our strength; in the joy of the Lord are we strong.
