We might preach till our tongues rotted, till we should exhaust our lungs and die, but never a soul would be converted unless there were mysterious power going with it - the Holy Ghost changing the will of man. O Sirs! We might as well preach to stone walls as preach to humanity unless the Holy Ghost be with the word, to give it power to convert the soul.
Charles SpurgeonAll the preaching in the world cannot make a man see the truth so long as his eyes are blinded.
Charles SpurgeonA sinner can no more repent and believe without the Holy Spirit's aid than he can create a world.
Charles Spurgeon
