“There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. . . . Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord. . . .” ― Charles Spurgeon “Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strengths.” ― C. H. Spurgeon “Hope itself is like a star- not to be seen in the sunshine of prosperity, and only to be discovered in the night of adversity.” ― Charles Haddon Spurgeon “If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our dead bodies. And if they perish, let them perish with our arms wrapped about their knees, imploring them to stay. If Hell must be filled, let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go unwarned and unprayed for.” ― Charles Spurgeon “A Bible that’s falling apart usually belongs to someone who isn’t.” ― Charles Spurgeon “Visit many good books, but live in the Bible.” ― Charles Spurgeon “When your will is God's will, you will have your will.” ― Charles Spurgeon https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/2876959.Charles_Haddon_Spurgeon (Philippians 2:13, KJV)    |
| He rode in on a donkey's foal, and now before the "storm" this day confronting leaders' souls, incited the coming harm. He preached on Olivet of what would soon attend Jerusalem. Destruction and His Coming taught the fall of Israel's greatest gem. Confronting the leaders in their place of greatest strength and rule brought anger for His words' disgrace, that painted each a fool. The temple brought the Pharisees the greatest pride of heart. "The Barren Fig Tree" His decree His Honor they'd depart. This Jesus never sinned at all. His strong words spoke no miss. Elect ones heard the inner call. No enemy deigned to kiss. The spotless Lamb is Jesus Christ. Not sinning, He was bold. He spoke the words that set the price, His Death as He foretold. Unkind He'd be by modern sense. Unkindness is not sin. So, speaking Truth, He did not mince, still pure to Vict'ry win. Their culture known. He caused His death by placing on the cross each sin He paid to His last breath. Salvation without dross. Arising He on the third day to never die, again. This Son of God in great display, redeemed His chosen men. The move was made in Tuesday's peace. He spoke words hard to bear. In days to come, man's words released, "(Fie!) Crucify Him (there)!" by Jay O’Toole on April 15th, 2025 |
