Recommended Quotes Site: Of First Importance
This weekend’s Recommended Quotes Site is a site that has been producing God-exalting, Christ-centered, Gospel-focused quotes for the body of Christ for quite some time. If you’ve been in the blogosphere for the past few years, you’ve probably seen their quotes referred to on many a blog. Today Ryle fans, I want to direct you [...]
Beware of the Love of Money
Let us beware of the love of money. It is possible to use it well, and do good with it. But for each one who makes a right use of money, there are thousands who make a wrong use of it, and do harm both to themselves and others. Let the worldly man, if he [...]
Thank God For Feeling Your Sinfulness
He that has any feeling of his own sinfulness, ought to thank God for it. That very sense of weakness, wickedness, and corruption, which perhaps makes you uncomfortable, is in reality a token for good, and a cause for praise.

Recommended Quotes Site: The Daily Spurgeon
As I mentioned last weekend, since I launched this site six months ago, I’ve come across some fantastic sites which are very similar in their approach of providing God-exalting, Christ-centered, Gospel-focused quotes to the body of Christ. My aim every so often (on various weekends) is to direct you faithful Ryle readers to other similar [...]
Persevering Towards Heaven
“Our Lord tells us that true Christians must make up their minds regarding trouble in this world. Whether we are ministers or hearers, whether we teach or are taught, it makes little difference. We must carry ‘a cross.’ We must be content to lose even life itself for Christ’s sake. We must submit to the [...]
Growing In Communion With Christ
“Seek every day to have closer communion with Him who is your Friend, and to know more of His grace and power. True Christianity is not merely believing a certain set of dry abstract propositions: it is to live in daily personal communication with an actual living person – Jesus Christ. ‘To me’, said Paul, [...]
