There is more to be learned at the foot of the Cross than anywhere else in the world.
J. C. Ryle
Image
The incorruptible things are all within the narrow gate. The peace of God which passed all understanding - the bright hope of good things to come - the sense of the Spirit dwelling in us - the consciousness that we are forgiven, safe, insured, provided for in time and eternity, whatever may happen - these are true gold, and lasting riches.

Image
Are you tempted? Look unto Jesus. Are you afflicted? Look unto Jesus. Do all speak evil of you? Look unto Jesus. Do you feel cold, dull, and backsliding? Look unto Jesus.

Let us learn to be patient in the days of darkness, if we know anything of vital union with Christ.

The faith that has not a sanctifying influence on the character is no better than the faith of devils.
J. C. Ryle
Image
A man's state before God may always be measured by his prayers.
J. C. Ryle
Image
If you profess to be a child of God, leave it to the Lord Jesus to sanctify you in His own way.
J. C. Ryle
Image
True worship leads to a more full knowledge of self, God, heaven, duty, doctrine, practice and experience.
J. C. Ryle
Image
No salvation without regeneration - no spiritual life without a new birth - no heaven without a new heart.
J. C. Ryle
Image
The first step towards attaining a higher standard of holiness is to realize more fully the amazing sinfulness of sin.
J. C. Ryle
Image
There is only one door, one bridge, one ladder, between earth and heaven - the crucified Son of God.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Surely if there be any habit which your own hand and eye should help in forming, it is the habit of prayer.
J. C. Ryle
Image
There is a common, worldly kind of Christianity in this day, which many have, and think they have enough-a cheap Christianity which offends nobody, and requires no sacrifice-which costs nothing, and is worth nothing.
J. C. Ryle
Image
We know nothing of humility by nature, for we are all born proud.
J. C. Ryle
Image
Weak, feeble and foolish as it may seem to people, the simple story of the Cross is enough for all mankind in every part of the globe.

A zealous Savior ought to have zealous disciples.
