Inspirational Quotes by Charles Spurgeon
“Those who were really orthodox in their sentiments were too often lax and unfaithful as to the introduction of heretical ministers into their pulpits, either as assistants or occasional preachers. In this way the Arian and Socinian heresies were introduced”
“Ignorant beings they must be if they look for wealth in connection with the Baptist ministry.”
“There is never a worse sin in the world than that which a man covers over with the cloak of religion; let us ever beware of falling into this evil.”
“Según la natural lealtad de nuestro corazón, estamos siempre hablando de nuestra propia bondad y nuestros méritos, tenazmente apegados a la idea de que debe haber algo de bueno en nosotros para merecer que Dios se ocupe de nuestras personas. Pero Dios que bien conoce todos nuestros engaños, sabe que no hay bondad ninguna en nosotros y declara que "no hay justo, ni aun uno" (Romanos 3:10). Él sabe que "todas nuestras justicias son como trapos de inmundicia" (Isaías 64:6); y por lo mismo el Señor Jesús no vino al mundo para buscar bondad y justicia entre los hombres, sino para llevar consigo bondad y justicia para entregárselas a las personas que carecen de ellas. No vino porque éramos justos, sino para hacemos justos, justificando al impío.”

“But here, as of riches, it is indisputable that the greatest fame does not bring with it any equal measure of gratification.”
“Tú puedes volverte tan grande como quieras cuando te alejas de Dios; pero cuando te acercas al Señor, puedes cantar correctamente: “Entre más tus glorias deslumbren mis ojos, En un lugar más humilde me tenderé”.”
“Patience is the fair handmaid and daughter of faith; we cheerfully wait when we are certain that we shall not wait in vain. It is our duty and our privilege to wait upon the Lord in service, in worship, in expectancy, in trust all the days of our life. Our faith will be tried faith, and if it be of the true kind, it will bear continued trial without yielding.”
