  by J. C. Ryle

  in ePub, .mobi & .pdf formats

  This is a series of remarkably direct and pungent papers on the great truths of salvation by and Evangelical Clergyman of the Church of England. There are diversities of gifts but the same Spirit. The style of address is earnest, hortatory, and familiar, in striking contrast with the stately, polished, aesthetic forms, commonly regarded as characteristic of the Church of England. We cannot better convey to our readers as impression of the character and style of the volume, than by saying it resembles closely the characteristic peculiarities of the most pungent modern religious tracts.

  Herbert Edward Ryle

  English Anglican bishop and biblical scholar (1856–1925)

  Herbert Edward RyleKCVO FBA (25 May 1856 – 20 August 1925) was an English Old Testament scholar and Anglican bishop, successively serving as the Bishop of Exeter, the Bishop of Winchester and the Dean of Westminster.

  Early life

  [edit]

  Ryle was born in Onslow Square, South Kensington, London, on 25 May 1856, the second son of John Charles Ryle (1816–1900), the first Bishop of Liverpool, and his second wife, Jessie Elizabeth Walker. Herbert Ryle was three years old when his mother died, and in 1861 his father married Henrietta Clowes, who was a loving mother to her stepchildren. Ryle and his brothers and sisters were brought up in their father's country parishes in Suffolk, first at Helmingham and after 1861 at Stradbroke.^[1]

  After attending school at Hill House, in Wadhurst, Sussex, Ryle went to Eton College in 1868. In 1875, he won the Newcastle scholarship, and in the same year he proceeded to King's College, Cambridge, as a classical scholar.^[2] A football accident in 1877 prevented him from further involvement in athletics and he took an Aegrotat degree in 1879. Between 1879 and 1881, however, he won every distinction open at Cambridge to students of theology
