More quotes by J. C. Ryle
Let us cleave to Christ more closely, love Him more heartily, live to Him more thoroughly, copy Him more exactly, confess Him more boldly, and follow Him more fully.
J. C. Ryle
O Christian, look up and take comfort. Jesus has prepared a place for you, and those who follow Him shall never perish, neither shall anyone pluck them out of His hands.
J. C. Ryle
No one ever reached heaven without repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
J. C. Ryle
Let us awake to a sense of the perilous state of many professing Christians. 'Without holiness no man shall see the Lord' without sanctification there is no salvation (Hebrews 12:14). Then what an enormous amount of so-called religion there is which is perfectly useless!
J. C. Ryle
Surely if there be any habit which your own hand and eye should help in forming, it is the habit of prayer.
J. C. Ryle
Many, I fear, would like glory, who have no wish for grace. They would [want to] have the wages, but not the work the harvest, but not the labor the reaping, but not the sowing the reward, but not the battle. But it may not be.
J. C. Ryle
A tree may always be known by its fruit, and a true Christian may always be discovered by their habits, tastes & affections.
J. C. Ryle
Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.
J. C. Ryle
A Christian is a walking sermon. They preach far more than a minister does, for they preach all week long.
J. C. Ryle
Sin and the devil will always find helpers in our hearts.
J. C. Ryle
Until we give God our heart, we give Him nothing at all.
J. C. Ryle
Hearken, my believing reader. What is the cause of your weakness? Is it not because the fountain of life is little used? Is it not because you are resting on old experiences, and not daily gathering new manna—daily drawing new strength from Christ?
J. C. Ryle
We know but little of true Christianity, if we don't feel a deep concern about the souls of unconverted people.
J. C. Ryle
Oh, dear friend, if you love your children, I charge you, do not let the early impression of a habit of prayer slip by. If you train your children to do anything, train them, at least, to have a habit of prayer.
J. C. Ryle
Nothing perhaps affects man's character more than the company he keeps
J. C. Ryle
We never know who they are that God will draw, and have nothing to do with it. Our duty is to invite all, and leave it to God to choose the vessels of mercy.
J. C. Ryle
I want people to fill their minds with passages of Scripture while they are well and strong, that they may have sure help in the day of need. I want them to be diligent in studying their Bibles, and becoming familiar with its contents, in order that the grand old Book may stand by them and talk with them when all earthly friends fail.
J. C. Ryle
A sin...consists in doing, saying, thinking, or imagining anything that is not in perfect conformity with the mind and law of God
J. C. Ryle
Of all the doctrines of the Bible none is so offensive to human nature as the doctrine of God's sovereignty.
J. C. Ryle
Assurance of hope is more than life, it is health, strength, power, vigor, activity, energy, manliness, beauty.
