J. C. Ryle, accepted as one of the foremost Bible teachers of the
last 200 years, turns his attention to the future. He investigates
the nature of biblical prophecy, signs of the End Times, the Second
Coming of Christ and the future state of the Church. He is careful
not to push his interpretation of the texts, purposefully avoiding
anything that can be called speculative or conjectural. Ryle
analyses 8 passages and gives an 11-point summary of his
prophetical creed.
Now with a new foreword by John MacArthur.
J.C. Ryle's "Holiness" has imparted a standing challenge to
Christians for 130 years. In this new, slimmed-down series of
excerpts from Ryle's masterwork, we aim to present his original
message to a whole new generation. Holiness, Ryle argued, was not
simply a matter of believing and feeling, but of "doing."
In this concise book, author J.C. Ryle delves into five common
dangers that he considered especially plaguing to the young men he
observed. Pride, Love of Pleasure, Thoughtlessness, Contempt of
Christianity, and Fear of Man's Opinion are all specific perils
that Ryle deals with in his direct yet pastoral style. Despite its
original target of young men the precious truths and timeless
advice drawn from Scripture are also very valuable to our young
women as well. Ryle speaks in a very approachable and useful style
that resonates today (perhaps even more so) as it did when first
published. The problems that threaten young men are just as real
and even stronger now than ever. We live in a modern world that is
at war with the things of God and young people have very particular
vulnerabilities. I would strongly encourage any man (or lady) young
or old to read this as it will prove to be a tremendous help and
encouragement.
J.C. Ryle has become one of the most loved of British authors on
church matters. He was the first Bishop of Liverpool, managing to
establish a thriving diocese in that most sectarian of English
cities. Although a convinced evangelical he was regarded as
fairminded by those who disagreed with him. Even Ryle's opponents
in church politics wept when he died. His books have remained in
print for a hundred years because Ryle was able to touch the person
in the street with clear teaching on doctrinal matters. He showed
how the Bible was relevant. His writings thus lend themselves to a
devotional format and here is a new selection different to any that
have gone before. Here Eric Russell has arranged writings according
to themes that develop the reader's understanding on a topic before
moving on to new pastures. It is as refreshing as it is profound.
This inspiring call to action from J. C. Ryle explains why the
fight for holiness is one of absolute necessity, identifying the
three main enemies of every believer. Part of the Crossway Short
Classics series.

For hundreds of years Christendom has been blessed with Bible
commentaries written by great men of God highly respected for their
godly walk and their insight into spiritual truth. The Crossway
Classic Commentaries present the very best work on individual Bible
books, carefully adapted for maximum understanding and usefulness
for today's believers.
Luke is an encouraging treatment of the third Gospel--the life
of Christ as told by "the beloved physician" under the direction of
God's Spirit. The teachings and miracles of our Savior come to life
in a powerful way, producing deeper devotion and increased
commitment in the hearts of those who follow the Master.
An assuring volume that will strengthen and encourage Christian
believers as they seek to better understand what it means to walk
with Christ day by day.
