Leitor, Eu tomo como certo que você acredita no Espírito Santo. A maioria das pessoas foi batizada no Nome do Pai e do Filho e do Espírito Santo. Muitos foram ensinados a repetir a Crença, ou Credo dos Apóstolos, desde a sua juventude. Seus lábios provavelmente já tenham dito umas mil vezes as solenes palavras: "Eu creio no Espírito Santo". Mas apesar de tudo isso, eu desejo que você considere bem o que sabe sobre o Espírito Santo além do Seu nome.

Although arguably one of the simplest aspects of Christianity, prayer is also perhaps the most neglected, overlooked, and malnourished part of the average Christian’s day and life. While praying quickly before food and with a congregation on Sunday and for an ailing relative may be common enough, J. C. Ryle truly, and with palpable heartfelt and genuine care, pushes those of faith to see their lack of serious prayer for the spiritual health crisis that it is.

Vivemos dias em que há um poderoso entusiasmo pela educação em cada canto. Ouvimos falar de novas escolas surgindo por todos os lados. Somos informados sobre novos sistemas e novos livros para os jovens, de todo tipo e descrição. E, ainda assim, com tudo isso, a grande maioria das crianças, claramente, não são educadas no caminho em que devem andar; assim, quando crescem até a estatura de um homem, elas não andam com Deus. Agora, como vamos explicar o estado dessas coisas?

Dont let anyone convince you that youre too young to serve God. Thats simply not true! As soon as you understand right from wrong, you are ready to choose the right path. The moment youre accountable for your actions, youre also ready to give your heart to God and follow Christ. Rev. Ryle speaks directly to children of all ages, using simple language to impart profound spiritual truths. He encourages even the youngest among us to embrace the teachings of Jesus and strive for a better life by following His example—lessons that resonate with adults, too. (Introduction by MaryAnn)

Explore the profound insights of Old Paths, a compelling work that delves into the essential truths of Christianity. Drawing inspiration from the Old Testament prophet Jeremiah, who speaks of the old paths as the way to find rest for our souls (Jer 66), Bishop Ryle penned this book during a time when many in the church were abandoning traditional evangelical beliefs for more liberal ideologies. Ryle passionately defended the timeless doctrines upheld by the early Christians and reformers, which were increasingly dismissed as outdated. He firmly believed that the world does not need a new ...

As I share this new collection of hymns, I feel compelled to offer a few thoughts on its purpose. This volume is not intended to be a comprehensive anthology of the finest English hymns. Instead, my primary focus has been on providing comfort for the ailing and spiritual nourishment for Christians in their private moments. I firmly believe that profound thoughts often linger in our memories as poetry, while prose may fade away. The hymns included in this collection cover a wide array of themes, specifically chosen to resonate with the hearts of all true Christians, regardless of their ...

If Charles Spurgeon was the Prince of Preachers, one might say that J. C. Ryle was the Prince of Theology. Not as catchy of a title perhaps, but it’s true. While he is widely known for his book Holiness, his sermons on faith are equally as powerful, and practical. John Charles Ryle, widely known as J.C. Ryle, was a prominent figure in the 19th-century Anglican Church, renowned for his unwavering commitment to evangelical principles and his influential role as a bishop, pastor, and writer.

Join J.C. Ryle as he explains the benefits of reading (and rereading) the Bible, and find inspiration for your daily devotions in this classic work.

A widely known preacher in both England and America in the mid-eighteenth century, George Whitefield’s influence has since been buried by those influential men in his time who found his teachings too emotional and experiential. J. C. Ryle seeks to undo that injustice in this work. Laying out in simple and factual ways Whitefield’s life, beliefs, works, and sermons, Ryle encourages a further study of this great Christian man. This biography not only serves to present Whitefield in a more fair light, but also encourages reflection on one’s own Christian walk.

This inspiring sermon by J.C. Ryle encourages Christians to remain steadfast and active in their faith while waiting for Christ’s return. Drawing from the infamous biblical parable of the three men who are given talents to invest while their master is away, Ryle urges Christians to use their gifts to serve the kingdom and to advance the message of the Gospel. Criticizing an inactive approach to Christianity, Ryle expects Christians to put away laziness, keeping the impending return of the King at the forefront of their minds.

An encouragement to longtime Christians and first time believers of the gospel alike, What Is Your Hope? urges a reexamination of what it means to hope and of where that hope is placed. For a Christian, Ryle states that hope is not a fickle or weak thing, it is complete assurance, as it is based on an unchanging, perfect God. Ryle details how fully placing one’s hope in Christ brings unparalleled peace, strength, joy, and comfort. He also emphasizes the importance of being sure not to stray or lean on any other foundation, as that will inevitably prove unreliable and dangerous to the soul.

The insight and wisdom contained here has aided generations of parents to rear Godly children and to maintain confidence in their abilities to be an example of their Heavenly Father. Extremely valuable, especially today, this work provides comfort, advice, and Biblical wisdom for parents who want to be mindful and intentional with how they raise their children. Ryle walks parents through crucial habits to instill in children, such as prayer and honesty, and encourages them to remember the importance of their own example and to find solace in the promises of God’s word.

Eu tenho uma pergunta para lhe fazer. Ela é composta de duas palavras: VOCÊ ORA?A questão é que ninguém pode responder a esta pergunta por você. Se você assistiu ao culto público ou não, o seu pastor sabe. Se você faz orações familiares em sua casa ou não, seus parentes sabem. Mas se você ora em secreto ou não, é um assunto apenas entre você e Deus. Vivemos em dias de abundante profissão religiosa. Há mais lugares de culto público agora do que jamais houve. Há mais pessoas frequentando-os do que em qualquer outro momento anterior.

I want to tell you what perhaps the greatest Christian who ever lived (the Apostle Paul) thought of the cross of Christ. Believe me, the cross is of deepest importance. This is no mere question of controversy; this is not one of those points on which men may agree to differ and feel that differences will not shut them out of heaven.

JC Ryle states that of all the Christian concepts, the Lord’s Supper might be the most misunderstood. Christ said, "eat, drink: do this in remembrance of me." But Ryle explains that not all of us can be invited to the table and that only those with true faith and a true heart can do so in full understanding of its significance.

The Holy Spirit might seem like a rather vague and complicated subject. Anywhere we encounter the spirit in the Bible, it is presented as a force present during moments of great importance. Ryle expands on the importance and necessity of The Holy Spirit in man’s road to redemption.

Alcançar a simplicidade na pregação é de extrema importância a todos os ministros que desejam ser úteis às almas. A não ser que você seja simples em seus sermões você nunca vai ser entendido, e se não for compreendido, você não pode fazer o bem aos que lhe ouvem. O ditado de Quintiliano é verdadeiro: "Se você não anseia ser entendido, você é digno de ser esquecido". O primeiro objetivo de um ministro deve ser o de pregar a verdade, toda a verdade, e nada mais que "a verdade como ela é em Jesus".
