More Great Christian Quotes by C H Spurgeon

"Far be it from me to imagine that Zion contains none but Calvinistic Christians within her walls, or that there are none saved who do not hold our views."

"Everywhere there is apathy. Nobody cares whether that which is preached is true or false. A sermon is a sermon whatever the subject; only, the shorter the better."

"If you look down into a well, if it be empty it will appear to be very deep, but if there be water in it you will see its brightness. I believe that many 'deep' preachers are simply so because they are like dry wells with nothing whatever in them, except decaying leaves, a few stones, and perhaps a dead cat or two. If there be living water in your preaching it may be very deep, but the light of truth will give clearness to it."


"There are two sorts of prayers- those expressed in words, and the unuttered longings which abide as silent meditations. Words are not the essence but the garments of prayer... There may be prevailing intercession where there are no words; and alas! there may be words where there is no true supplication. Let us cultivate the spirit of prayer, which is even better than the habit of prayer."


"Without the Spirit of God, we can do nothing. We are as ships without wind. We are useless."


"Groanings which cannot be uttered are often prayers which cannot be refused."
