The faith that has not a sanctifying influence on the character is no better than the faith of devils.

Christmas is a season which almost all Christians observe in one way or another. Some keep it as a religious season. Some keep it as a holiday. But all over the world, wherever there are Christians, in one way or another Christmas is kept.

Image
Wherever we may be, or whatever our circumstances, the Lord Jesus sees them. We are never beyond the reach of His care.

True worship leads to a more full knowledge of self, God, heaven, duty, doctrine, practice and experience.

A deep sense of sin, a humble willingness to be saved in God's way, a teachable readiness to give up our own prejudices when a more excellent way is shown, these are the principal things. These things the two disciples possessed, and therefore our Lord went with them and guided them into all truth.

Do we profess to love Christ? Then let us show it by our lives.

If you train your children to anything, train them, at least, to a habit of prayer.

Humility and love are precisely the graces which the men of the world can understand, if they do not comprehend doctrines. They are the graces about which there is no mystery, and they are within reach of all classes... The poorest Christian can every day find occasion for practicing love and humility.

Trials are intended to make us think, to wean us from the world, to send us to the Bible, to drive us to our knees.

Image
Persecution, in short, is like the goldsmith's stamp on real silver and gold - it is one of the marks of a converted man.

The best of men are men at best

I should as soon expect a farmer to prosper in business who contented himself with sowing his fields and never looking at them till harvest, as expect a believer to attain much holiness who was not diligent about his Bible reading, his prayers, and the use of his Sundays.

Image
Make it a part of every day's business to read and meditate on some portion of God's Word. Private means of grace are just as needful every day for our souls as food and clothing are for our bodies.

If you want to find out how much someone loves you, find out how much they pray for you.
J. C. Ryle
Image
If anyone feels his sins, let him come at once, straight, direct, not merely to church, or to the sacrament, or to repentance, or to prayer, but to Christ Himself.
J. C. Ryle
Image
We know nothing of humility by nature, for we are all born proud.

A converted man will not wish to go to heaven alone

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.
