The fact is, we sometimes read Scripture, thinking of what it ought to say, rather than what it does say.
Charles SpurgeonThere is no repentance where a man can talk lightly of sin, much less where he can speak tenderly and lovingly of it.
Charles SpurgeonThe best way to live above all fear of death is to die every morning before you leave your bedroom.
Charles SpurgeonThe more grace we have, the less we shall think of ourselves, for grace, like light, reveals our impurity.
Charles SpurgeonThose who do not hope cannot wait; but if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
Charles SpurgeonUnerring wisdom ordained your lot, and selected for you the safest and best condition. Remember this, had any other condition been better for you than the one in which you are, divine love would have put you there. You are placed by God in the most suitable circumstances. Be content with such things as you have, since the Lord has ordered all things for your good.
