This is faith, receiving the truth of Christ; first knowing it to be true, and then acting upon that belief.
Charles SpurgeonIf by excessive labor we die before reaching the average age of man, worn out in the Master's service, then glory be to God. We shall have so much less of earth and so much more of heaven. It is our duty and our privilege to exhaust our lives for Jesus.
Charles SpurgeonIt is not faith in Christ that saves you (though faith is the instrument) - it is Christ's blood and merits.
Charles SpurgeonYou and I cannot be useful if we want to be sweet as honey in the mouths of men. God will never bless us if we wish to please men, that they may think well of us. Are you willing to tell them what will break your own heart in the telling and break theirs in the hearing? If not, you are not fit to serve the Lord. You must be willing to go and speak for God, though you will be rejected.
Charles Spurgeon
