More quotes by J. C. Ryle
Next to praying there is nothing so important in practical religion as Bible-reading.
J. C. Ryle

A Christian is a walking sermon. They preach far more than a minister does, for they preach all week long.
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
We must wrestle earnestly in prayer, like men contending with a deadly enemy for life.
J. C. Ryle
The true secret of spiritual strength is self-distrust and deep humilty.
J. C. Ryle
Go to the cross of Christ, all you that want to be delivered from the power of selfishness.
J. C. Ryle
Without a thorough conviction of sin, men may seem to come to Jesus and follow Him for a season, but they will soon fall away and return to the world.
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 chief end for which He lived and died was to provide eternal redemption for mankind.
J. C. Ryle
And I believe it to be a signal evidence of the Spirit's presence when the Word is really precious to a man 's soul.
J. C. Ryle
Unity without the gospel is a worthless unity it is the very unity of hell.
J. C. Ryle
Let us read our Bibles reverently and diligently, with an honest determination to believe and practice all we find in them.
J. C. Ryle
We want more men and women who walk with God and before God, like Enoch and Abraham.
J. C. Ryle
The nearer we live to God while we live, the more ready we will be to dwell forever in His presence when we die.
J. C. Ryle
I am one of those old-fashioned ministers who believe the whole Bible and everything that it contains.
