Since Satan can't destroy the gospel, he has too often neutralized its usefulness by addition, subtraction or substitution.
J. C. RyleJesus hears us, and in His own good time will give an answer... He may sometimes keep us long waiting...but He will never send us empty away.
J. C. RyleGod does not look at riches, titles, education, or beauty. There is only one thing that God does look at, and that is the soul.
J. C. RyleWe must cast away everything which hinders us upon our road towards heaven – the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye and the pride of life; the love of riches, pleasures and honors, the spirit of lukewarmness and carelessness and indifference about the things of God – all must be rooted out and forsaken if we are anxious for the prize. We must mortify the deeds of the body, we must crucify our affections for this world.
