A Sketch of the Life and Labors of George Whitefield

A Sketch of the Life and Labors of George Whitefield

J C Ryle

Waymark Books
2020
sidottu
George Whitefield was a popular Calvinist circuit preacher of England and frontier America who along with John Wesley, Charles Wesley, and Jonathan Edwards was very influential in the American Great Awakening of the mid-18th century. In a brief life of fifty-seven years, Whitefield shared Jesus and the Gospel with more messages to more people than any other minister of his day. This excellent summary of his life brings the reader to a crossroads between total commitment to Jesus or a compromised life with the things of self and the world. This is not a research work, but a defense of Whitefield's ministry, which suffered unduly harsh criticism from the so-called "old lights," those Anglican and Congregational clergymen who thought the Great Awakening, and Whitefield's ministry, to be steeped in hyper-emotionalism and experience-based religious effects. In this still relevant book, J. C. Ryle goes to work defending Whitefield in terms of the substance of Whitefield's preaching, which he contends was Scriptural to the core.

A Call to Prayer

A Call to Prayer

pokkari
J.C. Ryle was well known for his warm, plain-spoken candor, the kind which appeals to all souls regardless of rank or title, and this short book is no different. Bold, encouraging, and affectionate, "A Call to Prayer" is just as the title says-an earnest invitation for all children of God to come before Him in prayer. Read it, be edified, and have hope: you have access to the Maker of heaven and earth who can do all things. In this classic book, Ryle charges the reader with the necessity of prayer. He cuts through the excuses and the pretense with the simple question: "Do you pray?" Ryle's style is concise and imminently readable. He argues that prayer or the lack of prayer is the single greatest barometer for a person's status before the Lord, for "to be prayerless is to be without Christ, without God, without grace, without hope, and without heaven." Ryle goes beyond the question to the meat of the issue, giving strong arguments for why prayer is so necessary for the spiritual well-being of an individual. Once he has made his point, Ryle turns his attention to how a person should pray. This work of prayer, according to Ryle, is so often neglected because it is such an arduous task cutting against the flesh and standing (or kneeing in this case) in direct opposition and defiance of Satan himself. Ryle encourages the Christian to pray with reverence and humility, spiritually, as a regular part of their business of life, with all perseverance, in earnestness, in faith, with boldness, with fullness, on behalf of others, with thankfulness and with watchfulness over one's prayers. In one of the many quotable phrases from this book, Ryle challenged readers to "tell me what a man's prayers are, and I will soon tell you the state of his soul," concluding that "prayer is the spiritual pulse." This book is a wonderful and encouraging read for any Christian desiring to walk more closely with God through prayer.

Holiness

Holiness

In Holiness, J. C. Ryle speaks to the heart and soul of every man. In a winning, approachable style, he wields the sword of the Spirit like a skillful surgeon, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow. He addresses hard and trying subjects which most modern evangelicals have chosen to ignore: the power and depth of indwelling sin, the necessity of a holy life, the struggle and fight of faith, counting the cost of following Christ... and that's only in the first five chapters Ryle's treatment of the texts which head the chapters is based on plain interpretation, common-sense exegesis and practical application. He does not side-step the difficult issues, but takes them head-on, making Christian theology and the principles of holy living seem so simple, obvious and straight-forward that readers will wonder what other Bible truths they've been missing all these years. Christian, read J. C. Ryle. You will not regret it. He is a man who first and foremost loved the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the vital center of all his teaching and writing and the sole reason for his great power in ministry. Whether you are an erudite scholar or a hard-laboring farmer, a pastor or a layman, a spiritual elder or a babe in Christ-no matter where you are-Ryle's writings are for you. The love of Christ and the faith of this great 18th century saint cling to every page like an aromatic perfume.

The Two Bears and Other Sermons for Children

The Two Bears and Other Sermons for Children

J C Ryle

Cedar Lake Classics
2024
pokkari
First published in 1867, The Two Bears and Other Sermons for Children by J.C. Ryle contains seven lively sermons aimed at young audiences. With creative storytelling and gentle encouragement, Ryle makes biblical truths and life lessons accessible and compelling for children.The title sermon draws from the cautionary story told in 2 Kings where a group of children are punished for mocking the prophet Elisha. Another sermon celebrates the simple but profound faith of a young blind girl. Ryle challenges children to emulate her joy and trust in Christ. In one of the longest pieces, Ryle analyzes Proverbs 8:17 phrase-by-phrase, urging children to seek and love God from an early age. Vivid analogies and examples illustrate the blessings of pursuing Christ wholeheartedly during childhood.While uncompromising in his focus on sin, salvation, and scripture, Ryle approaches children with affection and hope. His imaginative sermons mingle warnings against wickedness with tender invitations to redemption. Without shying away from the stark realities of judgment, Ryle summons the littlest souls to live purposefully and morally by clinging to the Savior. Though originally delivered to 19th century audiences, these creative Gospel messages translate seamlessly across cultures and generations.

Straightforward Thoughts for Young Men

For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other - Galatians 5:17Young men, you form a large and very important class in the population of this country; but where, and in what condition, are your souls? I am growing old myself, but there are few things that I can remember so well as the days of my youth. I have a most distinct recollection of the joys and the sorrows, the hopes and the fears, the temptations and the difficulties, the mistaken judgments and the misplaced affections, and the errors and the aspirations which surround and accompany a young man's life. If I can only say something to keep some young man walking in the right way and preserve him from faults and sins, which may hurt his prospects both for time and eternity, I shall be very thankful. There are four things which I propose to do: I will mention some general reasons why young men need exhorting. I will note some special dangers which young men need to be warned about. I will give some general advice which I beg young men to receive. I will set down some special rules of conduct which I strongly advise young men to follow. On each of these four points I have something to say, and my young friend, I pray to God that what I say may do good to your soul. - J. C. Ryle Updated edition based on Thoughts for Young Men
