The true Christian does not need to be reminded that he has a crucified Master. He often thinks of Him.
J. C. Ryle
Image
What is the reason that some believers are so much brighter and holier than others? I believe the difference, in nineteen cases out of twenty, arises from different habits about private prayer. I believe that those who are not eminently holy pray little, and those who are eminently holy pray much.

True Christian is not an angel he is not a halfangelic being, in whom is no weakness, or blemish, or infirmity: he is nothing of the kind. He is nothing more than a sinner who has found out his sinfulness, and has learned the blessed secret of living by faith in Christ.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Nothing is so fickle and uncertain as popularity. It is here today and gone tomorrow. It is a sandy foundation, and sure to fail those who build upon it.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Let it never surprise true Christians if they are slandered and misrepresented in this world. They must not expect to fare better than their Lord.

Image
Prosperity is a great mercy, but adversity is a greater one, if it brings us to Christ.

Image
Knowledge of the Bible never comes by intuition.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Weak, feeble and foolish as it may seem to people, the simple story of the Cross is enough for all mankind in every part of the globe.
J. C. Ryle
Image
People fall in private, long before they fall in public. The tree falls with a great crash, but the secret decay which accounts for it, is often not discovered until it is down on the ground.
J. C. Ryle
Image
If God has given His Son to die for us, let us beware of doubting His kindness and love in any painful providence of our daily life.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Let us resolve by God's grace, that however poor and feeble our prayers may seem to be, we will pray on.
J. C. Ryle
Image
To be Christian it will cost a man his love of ease.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Churches may decay and perish riches may make themselves wings and fly away-but he who builds their happiness on Christ crucified and union with Him by faith, that person is standing on a foundation which shall never be moved, and will know something of true peace.
J. C. Ryle
Image
A good conscience will be found a pleasant visitor at our bedside in a dying hour.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Our prayers may be weak, stammering, and poor in our eyes. But if they come from a right heart, God understands them. Such prayers are His delight.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Let us seek friends that will stir up our prayers, our Bible reading, our use of time, and our salvation.

Image
Do something, by God’s help, to make heaven more full and hell more empty.

Image
The surest mark of true conversion is humility.
J. C. Ryle
Image
What will it cost [a person] to be a true Christian? It will cost him his self-righteousn ess. He must cast away all pride and high thoughts, and conceit of his own goodness. He must be content to go to heaven as a poor sinner, saved only by free grace, and owing all to the merit and righteousness of another.

Miserable indeed is that religious teaching which calls itself Christian, and yet contains nothing of the cross.
