Today’s Quote
The floods of God’s mercy ever rise above the mountains of our sins!
— Charles Spurgeon
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
The Bible is a vein of pure gold, unalloyed by quartz, or any earthly substance. This is a star without a speck; a sun without a blot; a light without darkness; a moon without its paleness; a glory without a dimness. O Bible! it cannot be said of any other book, that it is perfect and pure; but of you
we can declare all wisdom is gathered up in you, without a particle of folly. This is the judge that ends the strife, where wit and reason fail. This is the book untainted by any error; but is pure, unalloyed, perfect truth.

The Spurgeon Birthday Book
March 16
The church is God's hospice, where he distributes bread and wine to refresh the weary, and entertains wayfarers that else had been lost in the storm. The church is God's hospital, into which he takes the sick, and there he nourishes them until they renew
their youth like the eagles. It is God's great Pharos with its lantern flashing forth a directing ray so that wanderers far away may be directed to the haven of peace. But mind, it must be God's church, and not man's.
