I believe that nothing happens apart from divine determination and decree. We shall never be able to escape from the doctrine of divine predestination – the doctrine that God has foreordained certain people unto eternal life. – Charles Spurgeon
Many men owe the grandeur of their lives to their tremendous difficulties. – Charles Spurgeon
Saving faith is an immediate relation to Christ, accepting, receiving, resting upon Him alone, for justification, sanctification, and eternal life by virtue of Gods grace. – Charles Spurgeon
