More quotes by J. C. Ryle
Our Lord has many weak children in his family, many dull pupils in his school, many raw soldiers in his army, many lame sheep in his flock. Yet he bears with them all, and casts none away. Happy is that Christian who has learned to do likewise with his brethren.

J. C. Ryle
There are no lessons so useful as those learned in the school of affliction.
J. C. Ryle
A man's state before God may always be measured by his prayers.

J. C. Ryle
The harvest of the Lord’s field is seldom ripened by sunshine only. It must go through its days of wind, rain and storm.
J. C. Ryle
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
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
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
Naked we came upon earth, and naked we go forth, and of all our possessions, we can carry nothing with us.
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
The Bible in the pulpit must never supersede the Bible at home.
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.
