Image
Imagination is the hotbed where this sin is too often hatched. Guard your thoughts, and there will be little fear about your actions.
J. C. Ryle
Image
If you profess to be a child of God, leave it to the Lord Jesus to sanctify you in His own way.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Let us never forget that our chief danger is from within. The world and the devil combined, cannot do us as much harm as our own hearts will, if we do not watch and pray.
J. C. Ryle
Image
There is only one door, one bridge, one ladder, between earth and heaven - the crucified Son of God.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Humility and love are precisely the graces which the men of the world can understand, if they do not comprehend doctrines. They are the graces about which there is no mystery, and they are within reach of all classes... The poorest Christian can every day find occasion for practicing love and humility.

The first step towards attaining a higher standard of holiness is to realize more fully the amazing sinfulness of sin.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Holiness is the habit of being of one mind with God, according as we find His mind described in Scripture. It is the habit of agreeing in God's judgment, hating what He hates, loving what He loves, and measuring everything in this world by the standard of His Word.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Wrong views about holiness are generally traceable to wrong views about human corruption.
J. C. Ryle
Image
No salvation without regeneration - no spiritual life without a new birth - no heaven without a new heart.
J. C. Ryle
Image
People may refuse to see the truth of our arguments, but they cannot evade the evidence of a holy life.
J. C. Ryle
Image
A zealous Savior ought to have zealous disciples.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Until we give God our heart, we give Him nothing at all.
J. C. Ryle
Image
If Christianity is a mere invention of man, and the Bible is not from God, how can infidels explain Jesus Christ? His existence in history they cannot deny. How is it that without force or bribery, without arms or money, He has made such an immensely deep mark on the world as He certainly has?
J. C. Ryle
Image
No doubt men may easily think too little of God the Father, and God the Spirit, but no man ever thought too much of Christ.
J. C. Ryle
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Prosperity is a great mercy, but adversity is a greater one, if it brings us to Christ.
J. C. Ryle
Image
The temple in which the Lord Jesus delights most, is a broken and contrite heart, renewed by the Holy Spirit.
J. C. Ryle
Image
We must wrestle earnestly in prayer, like men contending with a deadly enemy for life.
