The greatest enemy to human souls is the self-righteous spirit which makes men look to themselves for salvation.
Charles SpurgeonYou say, 'On the off chance that I had somewhat more, I ought to be exceptionally fulfilled.' You commit an error. On the off chance that you are not content with what you have, you would not be fulfilled in the event that it were multiplied.
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 SpurgeonOnly he is fit to preach who cannot avoid preaching, who feels that woe is upon him unless he preach the gospel
