J. C. RyleThe Gospel which we possess was not given to us only to be admired, talked of, and professed - but to be practiced.
J. C. RyleSuch true worship will stand the test of Christ's great principle, โBy their fruits you shall know themโ. It sanctifies the Christian's life, and makes them walk with God, lifting them above fear and love of the world. It enables a Christian to show God to other folks. Such worship comes from heaven, and has the mark of God upon it.
