A thorough study of sin, salvation by faith, and the Christian’s journey of sanctification.
He who wants a correct understanding of holiness must first begin by examining the vast and solemn subject of sin. He must dig down very deep if he wants to build high. Wrong views about holiness are generally traceable to wrong views about human corruption.
Practical holiness and entire self-consecration to God are not given adequate attention by modern Christians. The unsaved sometimes rightly complain that Christians are not as kind and unselfish and good-natured as those who make no profession of faith. Far too many Christians make a verbal proclamation of faith, yet remain unchanged in heart and lifestyle. But Scripture makes it clear that holiness, in its place and proportion, is quite as important as justification. Holiness, without which no one shall see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14). It is imperative that Christians are biblically and truly holy.
The aim of this book is to instruct you, equip you, and encourage you in the pursuit of holiness.
About the Author
John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) graduated from Eton and Oxford and then pursued a career in politics, but due to lack of funds, he entered the clergy of the Church of England. He was a contemporary of Spurgeon, Moody, Mueller, and Taylor and read the great theologians like Wesley, Bunyan, Knox, Calvin, and Luther. These all influenced Ryle’s understanding and theology. Ryle began his writing career with a tract following the Great Yarmouth suspension bridge tragedy, where more than a hundred people drowned. He gained a reputation for straightforward preaching and evangelism. He travelled, preached, and wrote more than 300 pamphlets, tracts, and books, including Expository Thoughts on the Gospels, Principles for Churchmen, and Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century. Ryle used the royalties from his writing to pay his father’s debts, but he also felt indebted to that ruin for changing the direction of his life. He was recommended by Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli to be Bishop of Liverpool where he ended his career in 1900.

J. C. Ryle’s writing is consistently straightforward and simple to understand, but he plumbs spiritual depths and offers insights that leave you no doubt that he consistently walked in the Spirit and had a rich and complex inner life and dialogue with Christ. This book will edify you and will draw you back for more. I admittedly read it so fast that practically all I have of it in clear remembrance is the imprint it left on my heart, mind, and spirit as to the value of our being sanctified. Chapters that particularly remain with me were his discussions of the depths of our sin and the deadly danger of looking back like Lot’s wife—that said, there is a tremendous amount of spiritual comfort and encouragement contained in this book. Besides the Bible, obviously, this ranks as one of the most enriching and enlightening books that I have read so far in my Christian walk. A must read…and a must re-read. I bought a couple of copies as Christmas gifts for members of my Bible study. I pray that they will enjoy this book as much as I did and benefit from it as much as I have. This will be a book that I consistently revisit as a sort of “spiritual check-up.” Please get yourself a copy and be blessed! Thank you, Jesus!
Christians do not often learn much about holiness today. It seems to be a rare quality among church attenders. Be separate from the world. It is easy to discuss sports and games and other entertainment with most Christians, but without holiness, no one will see the Lord, the Bible says.
Get this book. Read it. Get serious about living for God. Those who live God’s way are not like most people. J. C. Ryle is a good author who points people to Jesus.
Go on to spiritual maturity. This book will help show you how.
This book should be in the library of every Christian. While I don’t agree with everything J C Ryle says in the book, yet his chapters dealing with holiness is very good. Holiness is not popular in churches today, it is very rare to hear a sermon on holy living daily. He touches on a few other topics which are good, such as assurance of salvation. Many believers don’t understand holiness. They are saved, yet lack the understanding of sanctification. I believe the problem lies in many local churches where pastors are not preaching on it. Paul gives an order on sanctification that it comes after salvation and we believers have a responsibility to live it daily (Ephesians 2:8-9).
