More quotes by J. C. Ryle
Let us learn to be patient in the days of darkness, if we know anything of vital union with Christ.
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
Do not glory in your own faith, your own feelings, your own knowledge, or your own diligence. Glory in nothing but Christ.
J. C. Ryle
Prayer needs neither learning, wisdom or book knowledge to begin it. It needs nothing but heart and will.
J. C. Ryle
The temple in which the Lord Jesus delights most, is a broken and contrite heart, renewed by the Holy Spirit.
J. C. Ryle
There are no lessons so useful as those learned in the school of affliction.
J. C. Ryle
The work of the preacher resembles that of the sower. Like the sower, the preacher must sow good seed, the Word of God.
J. C. Ryle
People are backsliders on their knees long before they backslide openly in the eyes of the world.
J. C. Ryle
Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.
J. C. Ryle
Go to the cross of Christ, all you that want to be delivered from the power of selfishness.
J. C. Ryle
Live as if you thought that Christ might come at any time.
J. C. Ryle
Conduct is the grand test of character. Words are one great evidence of the condition of the heart.
J. C. Ryle
Look not to yourselves! You are by nature wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked. Look simply unto Jesus.
J. C. Ryle
The love of the Bible will show itself in a believer's actions.
J. C. Ryle
Beware of manufacturing a God of your own: a God who is all mercy, but not just. Such a God is an idol of your own.
J. C. Ryle
Politics, or controversy, or party spirit, or worldliness, have eaten out the heart of lively piety in too many of us. The subject of personal godliness has fallen sadly into the background.
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
Persecution, in short, is like the goldsmith's stamp on real silver and gold - it is one of the marks of a converted man.
J. C. Ryle
There is only one door, one bridge, one ladder, between earth and heaven - the crucified Son of God.
J. C. Ryle
People fall in private, long before they fall in public. The tree falls with a great crash, but the secret decay which accounts for it, is often not discovered until it is down on the ground.
J. C. Ryle
