C.H. Spurgeon Quotes

Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-92) was England's best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. In 1854, just four years after his conversion, Spurgeon, then only 20, became pastor of London's famed New Park Street Church (formerly pastored by the famous Baptist theologian John Gill). The congregation quickly outgrew their building, moved to Exeter Hall, then to Surrey Music Hall. In these venues Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000—all in the days before electronic amplification. In 1861 the congregation moved permanently to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle.

C.H. Spurgeon Quotes

BALANCE

Balance your duties, and let not one press out another. BA21 We are to take care never to present one duty to God stained with the blood of another, but to balance and proportion our different forms of service, so that our life-work may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 798.124 Truth lies betw... 阅读更多

BANKRUPTCY

Why, I know tradesmen who have failed five or six times, and yet they think they are on the road to heaven; the scoundrels, what would they do if they got there? They are a deal more likely to go where they shall never come out till they have paid the uttermost farthing. PT83 Bankruptcies one after ... 阅读更多

BAPTISM

I should think it a high sin and treason against heaven, if, believing that baptism signifieth immersion, and immersion only, I should pretend to administer it by sprinkling; or, believing that baptism appertaineth to believers only, I should consider myself a criminal in the sight of God if I shoul... 阅读更多

BAPTISM - INFANT

Truth suffers nothing from free discussion, it is indeed the element in which it most freely exerts its power. We have personally known several instances in which sermons in defence of Infant Baptism have driven numbers to more Scriptural views, and we have felt that if Pædo-baptists will only preac... 阅读更多

BAPTISM - REFUSAL OF

I do not question the safety of the soul that has believed, but I do say again, I would not run the risk of the man who, having believed, refuses to be baptized. 980.156 I feel shocked when I hear people say, “But it is not essential to salvation.” Thou mean and beggarly spirit! Wilt thou do nothing... 阅读更多

BAPTISTS

Still, a few historical memoranda as to the Christians commonly called Baptists will not be out of place. Our own belief is that these people are the purest part of that sect which of old was everywhere spoken against, and we are convinced that they have, beyond their brethren, preserved the ordinan... 阅读更多

BEAUTY

There is little virtue in the beauty which calls attention to itself; modest beauty is the last to extol its own charms. AM212 As for beauty, one of its most potent charms lies in its modest unconsciousness; it is greatly marred when accompanied by vanity. 1392.15 You tell me of the charms of beauty... 阅读更多

C.H. Spurgeon Quotes

BELIEF

Believing is a matter of the will. A man does not believe without being willing to believe. 2305.197 If thou believest, thy belief will kill thy sinning, or else thy sinning will kill thy believing. The greatest argument against the Bible is an unholy life; and when a man will give that up, he will ... 阅读更多

C.H. Spurgeon Quotes

BETRAYAL

Reproaches from those who have been intimate with us, and trusted by us, cut us to the quick; and they are usually so well acquainted with our peculiar weaknesses that they know how to touch us where we are most sensitive, and to speak so as to do us most damage. TD55:12... 阅读更多

C.H. Spurgeon Quotes

BIAS

They have no veils of ignorance or prejudice to darken their sight in heaven. Those of us who most candidly endeavour to learn the truth are nevertheless in some degree biased and warped by education. Let us struggle as we may, yet still our surroundings will not permit us to see things as they are.... 阅读更多

BIBLE

Never be afraid of your Bibles. BA175 Old-fashioned believers could give you chapter and verse for what they believed; but how few of such remain! GF45 If you wish to know God you must know his word; if you wish to perceive his power you must see how he worketh by his word; if you wish to know his p... 阅读更多

BIBLE -ASSISTANCE IN TEMPTATION

The devil himself cannot invent a temptation which is not met in these pages; and all the devils in hell together, if they were to hold parliament, and to call in the aid of all bad men, could not invent a device which is not met by this matchless library of truth. 2084.262... 阅读更多

BIBLE -AUTHORITY OF

Always stand to it that your creed must bend to the Bible, and not the Bible to your creed, and dare to be a little inconsistent with yourselves, if need be, sooner than be inconsistent with God’s revealed truth. WCo36... 阅读更多

C.H. Spurgeon Quotes

BIBLE -CANON CLOSED

I speak most plainly here, no additional revelation is to be expected, because the book of God is ended, the revelation of God is finished, and he that adds to the sacred book is cursed. 1428.450 I have little confidence in those persons who speak of having received direct revelations from the Lord,... 阅读更多

BIBLE -CHAPTER DIVISIONS

I feel vexed with the fellow who chopped the Bible up into chapters; I forget his name just now, and I am sure it is not worth recollecting. 1127.466 You are well aware, dear friends, that the division into chapters has only been made for convenience’ sake, and is not a matter of inspired arrangemen... 阅读更多

BIBLE -COMFORT FROM

Within the Scripture there is a balm for every wound, a salve for every sore. GF15 Did you ever notice how the Bible ends?

BIBLE -CONVERSIONS BY

Have any of you known or heard of such a thing as conversion wrought by any other doctrine than that which is in the Word? I should like to have a catalogue of conversions wrought by modern theology. GF14 If we want revivals, we must revive our reverence for the Word of God. If we want conversions, ... 阅读更多

BIBLE -CONVICTION THROUGH

Do you think we all honestly want to know our errors? Are there not chapters of the Bible which we do not like to read? If there are—if any text has a quarrel with you, quarrel with yourself; but yield wholly to the word of God. 1274.44 If there is any verse that you would like left out of the Bible... 阅读更多

BIBLE -CRITICISM OF

If you hear a man rail at the Bible, you can usually conclude that he never reads it. 197.258 It argues a high excess of impiety, when a man shall say that that which came from God is foolish. 407.477 Can you believe that your Maker sat down to write an unimportant book, or that the Holy Ghost inspi... 阅读更多
