Charles SpurgeonYou can recollect the sayings of great men, you treasure up verse of renowned poets; ought you not be equally profound in your knowledge of the words of God, so that you may be able to quote them readily when you would solve a difficulty or overthrow a doubt?
Charles SpurgeonOh, to have โthe word of Christโ always dwelling inside of us;-in the memory, never forgotten; in the heart, always loved; in the understanding, really grasped; with all the powers and passions of the mind fully submitted to its control!
Charles SpurgeonMi fe no descansa en lo que soy, o lo que serรฉ, o como me siento, o lo que sรฉ, sino en lo que Cristo รฉs, en lo que รฉl ha hecho, y en lo que รฉl estรก haciendo en mรญ - My faith rests not in what I am, or shall be, or feel, or know, but in what Christ is, in what He has done, and in what He is now doing for me.
Charles Spurgeon
