The Passion: Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus

J C Ryle 1816-1900

This is the reading from the Expository Thoughts of Ryle on the Gospel of John.
“From his conversion to his burial, J.C. Ryle was entirely one-dimensional. He was a one-book man; he was steeped in Scripture; he bled Bible. As only Ryle could say, “It is still the first book which fits the child's mind when he begins to learn religion, and the last to which the old man clings as he leaves the world.” This is why his works have lasted—and will last—they bear the stamp of eternity.”
