Another real danger to young men is thoughtlessness and lack of consideration. Lack of thought is one simple reason why thousands of souls are cast away forever. Men will not consider,-will not look forward,-will not look around them,-will not reflect on the end of their present course, and the sure consequences of their present ways,-and awake at last to find they are damned for lack of thinking.
J. C. RyleIf I never spoke of hell, I should think I had kept back something that was profitable, and should look on myself as an accomplice of the devil.
J. C. RyleIf we would have good ministers, we must remember our Lordโs example, and pray for them. Their work is heavy. Their responsibility is enormous. Their strength is small. Let us see that we support them, and hold up their hands by our prayers.
J. C. RyleIf you do not love Christ, let me tell you plainly what is the reason. You have no sense of debt to him.
J. C. RyleIf we are true Christians, we must not expect everything smooth in our journey to heaven. We must count it no strange thing, if we have to endure sicknesses, losses, bereavements, and disappointments, just like other men. Free pardon and full forgiveness, grace along the way, and glory at the endall this our Savior has promised to give. But He has never promised that we shall have no afflictions.
