Spurgeon’s Daily Help
"To whom do you belong?" Let me help you answer that. Have you been "born again"? If so, you belong to Christ; without this new birth, you cannot be His. In whom do you trust? Those who believe in Jesus are the children of God. Whose work are you doing? You will serve your master, and whoever you serve
is your true Lord. What is your conversation like? Is it focused on Heaven or earthly things? What have you learned from your Master? If you've been with Jesus, it will show, just as it was evident that Peter and John had been with Him.

The Spurgeon Birthday Book

You can’t compare things that are meant for different purposes. Peter and Apollos both have their place, and neither is more valuable than the other. No one asks which is more useful—a needle or a pin, a wagon or a plow—they are designed for different
tasks and couldn’t switch places without losing their effectiveness. Don’t judge others, or you’ll be judging their Creator.
