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 to the site called Of First Importance.
From Of First Importance:
“Josh Etter, Fred Eaton and Bart Byl are three brothers in Christ whose friendship is rooted in the gospel. We’ve all spent far too much time looking inward instead of upward (Col 3:1), only to futility and despair. This blog was born out of our own need to live each day in the good of the gospel. Each day this blog will provide a thoughtful quote to help you remember what’s ‘of first importance’: the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
I trust you faithful Ryle readers will benefit immensely from the quotes from these three men. They are well worth subscribing to via RSS or Email.

Erik:
I wanted to let you know that I appreciate the work you are doing with this site. The quotes are usually very encouraging to me and to others that I share them with. I am not a 5 pt. Calvinist and would be considered more Arminian by most but God being glorified is a blessing to all His children.
Thanks again for taking the time to teach people about Ryle and his thoughts and ministry. God bless you and your family.
Much grace and peace to you,
Bill (a fellow-laborer)

You’re very welcome. It really is a pleasure to discover Ryle’s quotes while reading and then typing them on this site. Thanks for the encouragement.
Erik, your recommendations of other subscribable sites is an excellent service to your readers, as is your own work. Thanks for caring to build up the body of Christ toward that grand event to which we all look forward with great eagerness, and thanks for helping us to make ready for it.

You’re welcome. I’m glad to refer my readers to other outstanding quotes sites so they can be blessed, strengthened and encouraged.
