Synopsis

Speaker and writer J. C. Ryle once said, “The man who hears the word of God, and does it, is the true Christian. He hears the call of God to repent and be converted, and he obeys it. He ceases to do evil, and learns to do well. He puts off the old man, and puts on the new. He hears the call of God to believe on Jesus Christ for justification, and he obeys it.”In The True Christian, Ryle details many more ways in which Christians can be uncompromising in their biblical principles.

Reviews

Goodreads review by Jessica

An excellent collection of messages. Highly recommend to those who want to add to the growth of knowledge in God and aren’t looking for a watered down Gospel or messages that will simply scratch itching ears. Published in 1900 but relevant today! Listened on Audible.......more

Goodreads review by Faith

“He gave us his Son— can anything give us a more tender expression of love?” “Many aching hearts under silk& satin… but to the heavy laden & wear souls, to you Jesus speaks…” listened to the audiobook while doing monotonous work (or else my quotes would be plentiful)… maybe one of my favorite books?......more

Goodreads review by Josiah

I have yet to read anything by Ryle that isn't convicting and immensely helpful. This one is no different. Ryle does for us like the puritan prayer requests, to "take us to the cross and leave us there."......more
