"I do not come into this pulpit hoping that perhaps somebody will of his own free
will return to Christ. My hope lies in another quarter. I hope that my Master
will lay hold of some of them and say, "You are mine, and you shall be mine. I
claim you for myself." My hope arises from the freeness of grace, and not from
the freedom of the will." (Charles H. Spurgeon)
"The old truth that Calvin
preached, that Augustine preached, that Paul preached, is the truth that I must
preach to-day, or else be false to my conscience and my God. I cannot shape the
truth; I know of no such thing as paring off the rough edges of a doctrine. John
Knox's gospel is my gospel. That which thundered through Scotland must thunder
through England again." (Charles H. Spurgeon)
