J. C. Ryle
Image
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

Nothing perhaps affects man's character more than the company he keeps
J. C. Ryle
Image
Let us never measure our religion by that of others, and think we are doing enough if we have gone beyond our neighbors.
J. C. Ryle
Image
When the Lord Jesus Christ gives a man remission of sins, He also gives him repentance.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Look not to yourselves! You are by nature wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked. Look simply unto Jesus.
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
So long as you do not quarrel with sin, you will never be a truly happy man.
J. C. Ryle
Image
However corrupt our hearts, and however wicked our past lives, there is hope for us in the Gospel.

A man may just as soon read the Scripture without eyes, as understand the spirit of it without grace.
