After faith comes repentance, or, rather, repentance is faith's twin brother and is born at the same time.
Charles SpurgeonThere, poor sinner, take my garment, and put it on; you shall stand before God as if you were Christ, and I will stand before God as if I had been the sinner; I will suffer in the sinner's stead, and you shall be rewarded for works that you did not do, but which I did for you.
Charles SpurgeonFaith is a principle which hath its root deeper feeling. We believe, whether we see or not.
Charles SpurgeonYou cannot make a sinner into a saint by killing him. He who does not live as a saint here will never live as a saint hereafter.
Charles SpurgeonI am ashamed of some christians because they have so much dependence on Parliment and the law of the land. Much good may Parliment ever do to true religion except by mistake! As to getting the law of the land to touch our religion, we earnestly cry, `Hands off! Leave us alone.' Your Sunday bills and all other forms of the act-of-Parliment religion seem to me to be all wrong. Give us a fair field and no favor, and our faith has no cause to fear. Christ wants no help from Caesar.
Charles Spurgeon
