We shall not adjust our Bible to the age; but before we have done with it, by Godโs grace, we shall adjust the age to the Bible.
Charles SpurgeonDear brethren, this is exactly what we have to do, we have to pawn the present for the future. We must be satisfied to give up anything which Christ may require of us for the sake of that which is to come. Our inheritance is not on this side of Jordan. Our joy is yet to be revealed. I grant you that we have much thrown in, for the Lord is a good paymaster; but on the road to heaven he gives us only our spending money.
Charles SpurgeonIt seems to me that doubt is worse than trial. I had sooner suffer any affliction than be left to question the gospel or my own interest in it.
Charles SpurgeonA genuine revival without joy in the Lord is as impossible as spring without flowers, or day-dawn without light.
Charles SpurgeonThe heart of the gospel is redemption, and the essence of redemption is the substitutionary sacrifice of Christ. They who preach this truth preach the gospel in whatever else they may be mistaken; but they who preach not the atonement, whatever else they declare, have missed the soul and substance of the divine message.
