Book Synopsis BISHOP J C RYLES AUTOBIOG by : J. C. Ryle
Download or read book BISHOP J C RYLES AUTOBIOG written by J. C. Ryle and published by Banner of Truth. This book was released on 2016-10-13 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Charles Ryle (1816-1900), first Bishop of Liverpool, was one of the most influential evangelical clergymen of the nineteenth century. A popular platform speaker and prolific tract writer, his books are still widely read across the globe. Edited by Andrew Atherstone, this critical edition of Ryle's manuscript autobiography, dictated in 1873, is a rich and unparalleled account of the early decades of his life and ministry. He recalls his youthful pursuit of academic plaudits and sporting prowess at Eton College and Oxford University, before his evangelical conversion at the age of 21. He tells of the devastating collapse of the family bank and the enforced sale of their Cheshire estates, which ended his ambitions to enter parliament. Ryle describes his exploits as a young clergyman, his loves and losses, his evangelical networks, and the deaths of his first two wives. He offers a frank assessment of his joys and struggles, and the reasons behind his crucial life choices.
Download or read book J.C. Ryle written by Ian D. Farley and published by Authentic Media. This book was released on 2000 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Church totters. Arguments rage over liturgy, and the role of women. Congregations struggle with increasing financial pressures, while clergy numbers decline. There is confusion over moral issues, especially sexual behavior. Areas of inner cities are effectively untouched by the gospel. You may recognise this as a picture of the western church at the beginning of the twenty-first century, but it is a description of the Church of England in which J. C. Ryle ministered as the first Bishop of Liverpool over a hundred years ago. Ian Farley analyses and assesses the life and work of J. C. Ryle, and through him the evangelicism of the last decades of the nineteenth century. A thematic critique rather than a biography, it highlights important parallels with the modern era and offers challenging insights to the church today.
Download or read book J. C. Ryle written by Iain H. Murray and published by . This book was released on 2016-05-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although one of the most widely read evangelical authors of the nineteenth century, Ryle's writings lost influence after his death. The world had moved on, as was supposed. Then, fifty years later a 'rediscovery' began. Research on his life was accomplished by able authors, and from a new wealth of material Iain Murray has put together a compelling biography. Ryle believed in definite doctrine, in a message which does not adjust to the times, in revival, and in the living Christ. He knew that all the great turning points of church history have been attended with controversy, and that 'there are times when controversy is not only a duty but a benefit'. J.C. Ryle's life is convincing evidence that Christianity stands or falls depending on its relation to the word of God and to the Holy Spirit. That he is being read widely again at the present time gives hope of better days.
Book Synopsis A Tender Lion by : Bennett Wade Rogers
Download or read book A Tender Lion written by Bennett Wade Rogers and published by Reformation Heritage Books. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Charles Ryle became the undisputed leader and spokesman of the evangelical party within the Church of England in the last half of the nineteenth century, and his works continue to be read by evangelicals of various denominational stripes more than a century after his death. Accordingly, he is often portrayed as "an old soldier" of a heroic cause. While this view of Ryle holds some merit, it often obscures the complexity and dynamism of a most remarkable man. In this intellectual biography, Bennett Wade Rogers analyzes the complicated life and times of a man variously described as traditional, moderate, and even radical during his fifty-eight-year ministry. Ryle began his ministerial career as a rural parish priest; he ended it as a bishop of the second city of the British Empire. In the time between, he became a popular preacher, influential author, effective controversialist, recognized party leader, stalwart church defender, and radical church reformer.

Download or read book Holiness written by J. C. Ryle and published by Sovereign Grace Publishers,. This book was released on 2001-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book lays out the requirements and difficulties that will come with the pursuit of holiness in our Christian lives. Ryle starts out with the way to achieve holiness and the difficulties that arise with pursuing a holy life, and then going throughout the Bible giving true examples of the cost of holiness and the rewards it brings as the Bible promises us. To often we sing and pray for such a life without being willing to undergo the necessary life changes and adjustments to get there. This book lays out what we can expect in such a journey and what God will ask of each of us to get us to the point He wants us to be.

Book Synopsis That Man of Granite with the Heart of a Child by : Eric Russell
Download or read book That Man of Granite with the Heart of a Child written by Eric Russell and published by Christian Focus. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Charles Ryle was born into a comfortable English family background - his father was a politician and businessman. Ryle was intelligent, a great sportsman (captain of cricket at Eton and Oxford) and was set for a career in his father's business, and then politics - a typical, well to do, 19th century family. Then - disaster. The family awoke to find that their father's bank had failed, taking all the other businesses with it. Ryle had lost his job and his place in society. He resigned his commission in the local yeomanry and went to comfort his parents, brother and sisters. One moment a popular man with good prospects, the next the son of a bankrupt with no trade or profession. Almost as a last resort, he was ordained into the ministry of the church. Who could have thought that such an uninspiring entry into the ministry could have such an impact on the spiritual life of a nation. Ryle's reputation as a pastor and leader grew until he was appointed the first Bishop of Liverpool, a post he held for 20 years. He was an author who is still in print today (he put aside royalties to pay his father's debts) and a man once described by his successor as ?that man of granite with the heart of a child.' He changed the face of the English church. Ryle stands as a colossus at the junction of two centuries - a hundred years after his death he still stands as an example to church leaders today of how to combine leadership, a firm faith and compassion.

Download or read book George Whitefield written by J.C. Ryle and published by Ravenio Books. This book was released on 2012-11-19 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who were the men that revived religion in England a hundred years ago? What were their names, that we may do them honor? Where were they born? How were they educated? What are the leading facts in their lives? What was their special department of labor? To these questions I wish to supply some answers in the present and future chapters. I pity the man who takes no interest in such inquiries. The instruments that God employs to do His work in the world deserve a close inspection. The man who did not care to look at the rams horns that blew down Jericho, the hammer and nail that slew Sisera, the lamps and trumpets of Gideon, the sling and stone of David, might fairly be set down as a cold and heartless person. Of all the spiritual heroes of a hundred years ago, none saw so soon as George Whitefield what the times demanded, and none were so forward in the great work of spiritual aggression. I would think I committed an act of injustice if I placed any name before his.
Book Synopsis Do You Pray? a Question for Everybody by : J. C Ryle
Download or read book Do You Pray? a Question for Everybody written by J. C Ryle and published by J C Ryle. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JC Ryle was a faithful evangelical Christian and prolific writer as well as Bishop of Liverpool; his larger works such as Holiness and Practical Religion have never been out of print since they were written in the later nineteenth century. But Ryle also wrote shorter works that are of great value. In this new series these have been lightly updated and produced for the twenty-first century church. The needs that Ryle identified and that led him to write have not changed! Do You Pray? challenges all Christians in a day when prayer meetings are in decline and personal serious prayer is increasingly rare. Ryle's approach is simple and straight- forward and easily understood by both young and old.
Download or read book Sickness written by JC Ryle and published by Matthias Media. This book was released on 2005 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I know the suffering and pain which sickness involves. I admit the misery and wretchedness which it often brings. But I cannot regard it as completely evil."— JC Ryle Sickness affects everyone personally at some time. In this powerful yet comforting Christian perspective, the 19th-century Bishop of Liverpool, JC Ryle, offers some timely biblical wisdom about this universal human problem. This work has been edited in such a way as to retain Ryle's writing style, but some of the language has been updated and simplified so as to make it easier for the modern reader. This short (24 page) booklet is an ideal resource for pastoral ministry.
