ReligionDescription:
J. C. Ryle's "Expository Thoughts" were first published in 1856 and met with such a warm welcome from evangelical Christians of all denominations. He prepared the work not for scholars only, but insisted that they were "for family and private use." In other words, like all his writings, they were intended to help the ordinary man and woman. "I have a strong conviction," he wrote, "that we want more reverent deep-searching study of the Scriptures in the present day. Most Christians see nothing beyond the surface of the Bible when they read it. We want more clear knowledge of Christ, as a living Person, a living Priest, a living Physician, a living Friend, a living Advocate at the right hand of God, and a living Saviour soon about to come again. Most Christians know little of Christianity but the skeleton of doctrines-I desire never to forget these two things: if I can do anything to make Christ and the Bible more honourable in these latter days, I shall be truly thankful and content."
