Charles Spurgeon Quotes

Bad times are famous times for Christ.

Many of the trials which are experienced by Christians are sent as an education in the art of sympathy.

God helps those who cannot help themselves.

Everything is a trifle to a man who is a Christian except the glorifying of Christ.

Depend upon it, there is no pain in dying. The pain is in living.

Never fear dying, beloved. Dying is the last, but the least, matter that a Christian has to be anxious about. Fear living—that is a hard battle to fight, a stern discipline to endure, a rough voyage to undergo.

The Christian gains by his losses. He acquires health by his sickness. He wins friends through his bereavements, and he becomes a conqueror through his defeats. Nothing therefore, can be injurious to the Christian, when the very worst things that he has are but rough waves to wash his golden ships home to port and enrich him.

In nothing shall the glory of God be marred.

You cannot see the beauty of certain gems unless you place them on black velvet.
