Charles Spurgeon: Citáty o víře
„Nevíra zničí i ty nejlepší z nás; víra zachrání i ty nejhorší z nás.“
Originál: (en) Unbelief will destroy the best of us; faith will save the worst of us.

Originál: (en) Faith and works are bound up in the same bundle. He that obeys God trusts God; and he that trusts God obeys God. He that is without faith is without works; and he that is without works is without faith.

Originál: (en) A faith which works not for purification will work for putrefaction. Unless our faith makes us pine after holiness, it is no better than the faith of devils, and perhaps it is not even so good as that.

Originál: (en) Faith is not a blind thing; for faith begins with knowledge. It is not a speculative thing; for faith believes facts of which it is sure. It is not an unpractical, dreamy thing; for faith trusts, and stakes its destiny upon the truth of revelation.

„Malá víra obdrží veliká milosrdenství, ale veliká víra ještě větší.“
Originál: (en) Little faith gets very great mercies, but great faith still greater.

Charles Spurgeon: Citáty o lidech
Originál: (en) If Christ is not all to you He is nothing to you. He will never go into partnership as a part Saviour of men. If He be something He must be everything, and if He be not everything He is nothing to you.

Originál: (en) Free-will doctrine-what does it do? It magnifies man into God. It declares God's purposes a nullity, since they cannot be carried out unless men are willing. It makes God's will a waiting servant to the will of man, and the whole covenant of grace dependent on human action. Denying election on the ground of injustice, it holds God to be a debtor to sinners.
Originál: (en) A sermon often does a man most good when it makes him most angry. Those people who walk down the aisles and say, "I will never hear that man again," very often have an arrow rankling in their breast.

Originál: (en) I do believe we slander Christ when we think we are to draw the people by something else but the preaching of Christ crucified.

Originál: (en) Of all the dreams that ever deluded men, and probably of all blasphemies that ever were uttered, there has never been one which is more absurd, and which is more fruitful in all manner of mischief, than the idea that the Bishop of Rome can be the head of the church of Jesus Christ. <
