More quotes by J. C. Ryle
A zealous Savior ought to have zealous disciples.
J. C. Ryle
Without the blessing of the Lord, your best endeavors will do no good. He has the hearts of all men in His hands, and except He touch the hearts of your children by His Spirit, you will weary yourself to no purpose. Water, therefore, the seed you sow on their minds with unceasing prayer.
J. C. Ryle
The love of the Bible will show itself in a believer's actions.
J. C. Ryle
Let us awake to a sense of the perilous state of many professing Christians. 'Without holiness no man shall see the Lord' without sanctification there is no salvation (Hebrews 12:14). Then what an enormous amount of so-called religion there is which is perfectly useless!
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
Any well-read man knows that the moral difference between the condition of the world before Christianity was planted and since Christianity took root is the difference between night and day, the kingdom of heaven and the kingdom of the devil.
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
Hell itself is truth known too late
J. C. Ryle
I am one of those old-fashioned ministers who believe the whole Bible and everything that it contains.
J. C. Ryle
Good hymns are an immense blessing to the Church. They train people for heaven, where praise is one of the principal occupations.
J. C. Ryle
There is only one door, one bridge, one ladder, between earth and heaven - the crucified Son of God.
J. C. Ryle
Your trials, crosses, and conflicts are all temporary.
J. C. Ryle
Let us seek friends that will stir up our prayers, our Bible reading, our use of time, and our salvation.
J. C. Ryle
Let us cleave to Christ more closely, love Him more heartily, live to Him more thoroughly, copy Him more exactly, confess Him more boldly, and follow Him more fully.
J. C. Ryle
O Christian, look up and take comfort. Jesus has prepared a place for you, and those who follow Him shall never perish, neither shall anyone pluck them out of His hands.
J. C. Ryle
The children of God all have a cross to bear. A suffering Savior generally has suffering disciples.
J. C. Ryle
A converted man will not wish to go to heaven alone
J. C. Ryle
If we would have good ministers, we must remember our Lord’s example, and pray for them. Their work is heavy. Their responsibility is enormous. Their strength is small. Let us see that we support them, and hold up their hands by our prayers.
J. C. Ryle
God is far more willing to save sinners than sinners are to be saved.
J. C. Ryle
The Word of God is ROCK. All else is sand.
J. C. Ryle
