Extra Spurgeon

The study notes I produced on Spurgeon missed off two of his best quotes, which were kindly provided by SJ. Here they are:

I am never ashamed to avow myself a Calvinist, although I claim to be rather a Calvinist according to Calvin, than after the modern debased fashion... but if I am asked to say what is my creed, I think I must reply: "It is Jesus Christ."

Semi-lunatics are very fond of coming with messages from the Lord to me, and it may spare them some trouble if I tell them once for all that I will have none of their stupid messages... If you feel your tongue itch to talk nonsense, trace it to the devil, not to the Spirit of God. Whatever is to be revealed by the Spirit to any of us is in the word of God already -- he adds nothing to the Bible, and never will. Let persons who have revelations of this, that, and the other, go to bed and wake up in their senses.


What a wise man!
