"Here is the history of the grass—sown, grown, blown, mown, gone; and the history of man is not much more." ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"Never neglect the means of grace; God may bless us when we are not in His house, but we have the greater reason to hope that He will when we are in communion with His saints." ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"Our gifts are not to be measured by the amount we contribute, but by the surplus kept in our own hand." ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"You must accept the revelation as infallible, or you cannot unquestioningly believe in the God therein revealed. If you once give up inspiration, the foundations are removed, and all building is laborious trifling. How are the promises the support of faith if they are themselves questionable?" ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"I have always found that the meaning of a text can be better learned by prayer than in any other way. Of course, we must consult lexicons and commentaries to see the literal meaning of the words, and their relation to one another; but when we have done all that, we shall still find that our greatest help will come from prayer." ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"Scripture is the best interpreter of Scripture. The locks of Scripture are only to be opened with the keys of Scripture; and there is no lock in the whole Bible, which God meant us to open, without a key to fit it somewhere in the Bible, and we are to search for it until we find it." ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"Our first word should be with our heavenly Father. It is good for the soul’s health to begin the day by taking a satisfying draught from the river of the water of life. Very much more depends upon beginnings than some men think. How you go to bed to-night may be determined by your getting up this morning. If you get out of bed on the wrong side, you may keep on the wrong side all the day. If your heart be right in the waking, it will be a help towards its being right till sleeping. Go not forth into a dry world till the morning dew lies on thy branch. Baptize thy heart in devotion ere thou wade into the stream of daily care. See not the face of man until thou hast first seen the face of God. Let thy first thoughts fly heavenward, and let thy first breathings be prayer." ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
Our best guide, when we are uncertain as to what to do, will be found in the answer to the question, “What would Jesus do?” ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
"God gives repentance, but men must themselves repent. " ~ Charles H. Spurgeon
