You 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 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 SpurgeonIf you meet with a system of theology which magnifies man, flee from it as far as you can.
Charles SpurgeonLord, send Your life throughout the entire church. Visit Your church; restore sound doctrine and holy, earnest living. Take away from professing Christians their love of frivolities, their attempts to meet the world on it's own ground, and give back the old love of the doctrines of the Cross and Christ. May free grace and dying love again be the music that refreshes the church and makes her heart exceeding glad.
Charles Spurgeon
