J. C. Ryle
The heart of a man can never be satisfied with the things of this world. It is always empty, and hungry, and thirsty, and dissatisfied, till it comes to Christ. It is only they who hear Christ's voice, and follow Him, and feed on Him by faith, who are 'filled.'.
J. C. Ryle
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
But if there is one thing clearly and plainly laid down about election, it is this: that elect men and women may be known and distinguished by holy lives.
J. C. Ryle
So long as you do not quarrel with sin, you will never be a truly happy man.
J. C. Ryle
I am one of those old-fashioned ministers who believe the whole Bible and everything that it contains.
J. C. Ryle
