It is wisdom to take occasional furlough. In the long run, we shall do more by sometimes doing less. On, on, on for ever, without recreation may suit spirits emancipated from this 'heavy clay', but while we are in this tabernacle, we must every now and then cry halt, and serve the Lord by holy inaction and consecrated leisure. Let no tender conscience doubt the lawfulness of going out of harness for a while
Charles SpurgeonIf the professed convert distinctly and deliberately declares that he knows the Lord's will, but does not mean to attend to it, you are not to pamper his presumptions, but it is your duty to assure him that he is not saved.
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 SpurgeonScripture is like a lion. Who ever heard of defending a lion? Just turn it loose; it will defend itself.
Charles SpurgeonThere is nothing that will keep a person from Christ like a good opinion of himself.
Charles SpurgeonBeware, I pray thee, of presuming that thou art saved. If thy heart be renewed, if thou shalt hate the things that thou didst once love, and love the things that thou didst once hate; if thou hast really repented; if there be a thorough change of mind in thee; if thou be born again, then hast thou reason to rejoice: but if there be no vital change, no inward godliness; if there be no love to God, no prayer, no work of the Holy Spirit, then thy saying "I am saved" is but thine own assertion, and it may delude, but it will not deliver thee.
Charles Spurgeon
