Charles Spurgeon on the Believer's Life

Posted by Bluegrass Endurance | Labels: , | Posted On Thursday, January 23, 2020 at 5:30 AM

"The religious life, which God declares to be blessed, must be practical as well as emotional. It is idle to talk of fearing the Lord if we act like those who have no care whether there be a God or no, God's ways will be our ways if we have a sincere reverence for him: if the heart is joined unto God, the feet will follow hard after him"

Charles Spurgeon

“A Christian should be a striking likeness of Jesus Christ. You have read lives of Christ, beautifully and eloquently written, but the best life of Christ is His living biography, written out in the words and actions of His people.”

Charles Surgeon

“The Gospel which we possess was not given us only to be admired, talked of, and professed,—but to be practised.  It was not meant merely to reside in our intellect, and memories, and tongues,—but to be seen in our lives.”

Ignatius of Antioch on the Life of a Christian

“We recognize a tree by its fruit, and we ought to be able to recognize a Christian by his action. The fruit of faith should be evident in our lives, for being a Christian is more than making sound professions of faith. It should reveal itself in practical and visible ways. Indeed it is better to keep quiet about our beliefs, and live them out, than to talk eloquently about what we believe, but fail to live by it.”

Ignatius of Antioch


Thomas Brooks on a Believer's Life

"Oh, is the Lord Jesus Christ a believer's life ? Why, then, let no believer be disquieted, nor overwhelmed and dejected, for any loss or for any sorrow or suffering that he meets with for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake.  What a base and unworthy spirit is it for a man to be troubled and disquieted in himself for anything that he shall do or suffer for his own natural life!  Oh, Jesus Christ is thy life; do not say this mercy is too dear for Christ, nor that comfort is too great for Christ.  Christ is the life of a believer: what wilt thou not do for thy life ?"

Thomas Brooks
