More quotes by J. C. Ryle
Fear not because your prayer is stammering, your words feeble, and your language poor. Jesus can understand you.
J. C. Ryle
What would you expect? Sin will not come to you saying, 'I am sin.' It would do little harm if it did. Sin always seems 'good, pleasant and desirable' at the time of arrival.
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
The harvest of the Lord’s field is seldom ripened by sunshine only. It must go through its days of wind, rain and storm.
J. C. Ryle
A good conscience will be found a pleasant visitor at our bedside in a dying hour.
J. C. Ryle
Your trials, crosses, and conflicts are all temporary.
J. C. Ryle

J. C. Ryle
We want more men and women who walk with God and before God, like Enoch and Abraham.
J. C. Ryle
Many, I fear, would like glory, who have no wish for grace. They would [want to] have the wages, but not the work the harvest, but not the labor the reaping, but not the sowing the reward, but not the battle. But it may not be.
J. C. Ryle
That Bible is read best, which is practised most.
J. C. Ryle
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.
J. C. Ryle
The person that goes regularly and intelligently to the Lord's Table finds it increasingly hard to yield to sin and conform to the world.
J. C. Ryle
Whatever others around you think, don't you ever be ashamed of being a Christian.
J. C. Ryle
True repentance begins with KNOWLEDGE of sin. It goes on to work SORROW for sin. It leads to CONFESSION of sin before God. It shows itself before a person by a thorough BREAKING OFF from sin. It results in producing a DEEP HATRED for all sin.
J. C. Ryle
I want people to fill their minds with passages of Scripture while they are well and strong, that they may have sure help in the day of need. I want them to be diligent in studying their Bibles, and becoming familiar with its contents, in order that the grand old Book may stand by them and talk with them when all earthly friends fail.
J. C. Ryle
When the Lord Jesus Christ gives a man remission of sins, He also gives him repentance.
J. C. Ryle
The true secret of spiritual strength is self-distrust and deep humilty.
J. C. Ryle
Let your Christianity be so unmistakable, your eye so single, your heart so whole, your walk so straightforward, that all who see you may have no doubt whose you are, and whom you serve.
J. C. Ryle
The world's idea of greatness is to rule, but Christian greatness consists in serving.
J. C. Ryle
Election is always to sanctification. Where there is no visible fruit of sanctification, we may be sure there is no election.
