Summary
In this classic evangelical address, 19th-century Anglican bishop J. C. Ryle delivers a searching exposition of Christ’s sobering question in Mark 8:36.
Written with characteristic pastoral urgency, doctrinal clarity, and uncompromising fidelity to Holy Scripture, Profit and Loss lays bare the vanity of earthly ambition when weighed against the eternal destiny of the human soul.
Ryle contrasts the transient, perishable nature of temporal gain—wealth, position, comfort, and worldly pleasures—with the infinite, enduring worth of the immortal soul.
Drawing upon solemn biblical warnings, the deathbed testimony of the unrepentant sinner, and the peaceful departure of the believer, he calls careless professing Christians to examine their hearts before the judgment seat of God.
Unflinching in its demand for genuine repentance, regeneration, living faith in Christ, and practical holiness, this classic sermon remains a powerful wake-up call for the contemporary Church.
