Satan can make men dance upon the brink of hell as though they were on the verge of heaven.
Charles SpurgeonYou cannot make a sinner into a saint by killing him. He who does not live as a saint here will never live as a saint hereafter.
Charles SpurgeonI cannot conceive of a greater wounding of the heart of Christ than to pay reverence to anything in the shape of a cross, or to bow before a crucifix!
Charles SpurgeonWe should shun ingratitude, and live daily in the heavenly atmosphere of thankful love.
Charles SpurgeonIf heaven were by merit, it would never be heaven to me, for if I were in it I should say, "I am sure I am here by mistake; I am sure this is not my place; I have no claim to it." But if it be of grace and not of works, then we may walk into heaven with boldness.
Charles SpurgeonI believe that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less that God wishes - that every particle of spray that dashes against the steamboat has its orbit, as well as the sun in the heavens - that the chaff from the hand of the winnower is steered as the stars in their course. The creeping of an aphid over the rosebush is as much fixed as the march of the devastating pestilence - the fall of...leaves from a poplar is as fully ordained as the tumbling of an avalanche.
