More quotes by J. C. Ryle
Let us daily strive to copy our Savior's humility.
J. C. Ryle
The only way to be really happy in such a world as this, is to be ever casting all our cares on God.
J. C. Ryle
Young men, I beseech you earnestly, beware of pride. Two things are said to be very rare sights in the world- one is a young man that is humble, and the other is an old man that is content. I fear that this is only too true.
J. C. Ryle
To be Christian it will cost a man his love of ease.
J. C. Ryle
Nothing perhaps affects man's character more than the company he keeps
J. C. Ryle
The doctrine of Christ crucified is the strength of a Minister. I, for one, would not be without it for all the world.
J. C. Ryle
The true secret of spiritual strength is self-distrust and deep humilty.
J. C. Ryle
Let us learn to be patient in the days of darkness, if we know anything of vital union with Christ.
J. C. Ryle
Next to praying there is nothing so important in practical religion as Bible-reading.
J. C. Ryle
Growth in grace is one way to be happy in our religion. God has wisely linked together our comfort and our increase in holiness.
J. C. Ryle
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.
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
True repentance begins with KNOWLEDGE of sin. It goes on to work SORROW for sin. It leads to CONFESSION of sin before God. It shows itself before a person by a thorough BREAKING OFF from sin. It results in producing a DEEP HATRED for all sin.
J. C. Ryle
Conversion is not putting a man in an armchair and taking him easily to heaven. It is the beginning of a mighty conflict, in which it costs much to win the victory.
J. C. Ryle
We corrupt the Word of God most dangerously, when we throw any doubt on the plenary inspiration of any part of Holy Scripture.
J. C. Ryle
That Bible is read best, which is practised most.
J. C. Ryle
If you do not love Christ, let me tell you plainly what is the reason. You have no sense of debt to him.
J. C. Ryle
Be very sure of this,-people never reject the Bible because they cannot understand it. They understand it only too well they understand that it condemns their own behavior they understand that it witnesses against their own sins, and summons them to judgment.
J. C. Ryle
One single soul saved shall outlive and outweigh all the kingdoms of the world.
J. C. Ryle
Politics, or controversy, or party spirit, or worldliness, have eaten out the heart of lively piety in too many of us. The subject of personal godliness has fallen sadly into the background.
J. C. Ryle
