Every Christian is either a missionary or an imposter.
Charles Haddon SpurgeonWe are not responsible to God for the soul that are saved, but we are responsible for the Gospel that is preached, and for the way in which we preach it

The doctrines of original sin, election, and effectual calling, final perseverance, and all those great truths which are called Calvinism – though Calvin was not the author of them, but simply an able writer and preacher upon the subject – are, I believe, the essential doctrines of the gospel that is in Jesus Christ.

Charles Haddon SpurgeonThere is no glory in being a featherbed soldier, a man bedecked with gorgeous medals, but never beautified by a scar, or ennobled by a wound.

Charles Haddon SpurgeonI take leave to contradict those who say that salvation is an evolution! All that ever can be evolved out of the sinful heart of man is sin-and nothing else!

It is done by the Lord Himself, and He has power to do it, however weak, no, however dead in sin, the sinner may be!
