¿Qué es “santificación”? ¿Es una cualidad o posición? ¿Es la santificación algo legal o experimental? Es decir: ¿Es algo que el creyente tiene en Cristo o en él mismo? ¿Es absoluta o relativa?. Con lo que queremos decir: ¿Incluye niveles o no? ¿Es invariable o progresiva? ¿Somos santificados en el momento que somos justificados o es la santificación una bendición posterior? ¿Cómo se obtiene esta bendición? ¿Por algo hecho para nosotros o por nosotros, o ambos?

La separación del mundo no es sólo un concepto bíblico, sino también una cuestión vital para hoy. Como en la época de Ryle, "hay un deseo muy extendido de hacer las cosas agradables en la religión, de serrar las esquinas y los bordes de la cruz, y de evitar, en la medida de lo posible, la abnegación". Ryle nos recuerda el peligro de la amistad con el mundo. Muestra lo que no es la verdadera separación, y luego en qué consiste. Finalmente, aprendemos que el secreto de la verdadera victoria sobre el mundo es el corazón del cristiano.

“True Christianity is a fight,” wrote J. C. Ryle in 1877. He argued that from the day of their conversion until the day they die, Christians are called to be soldiers for Christ in a war for their holiness. This inspiring call to action written more than 100 years ago continues to be a source of great encouragement and inspiration for believers today.  

John Charles Ryle (1816-1900) was the first bishop of Liverpool and a writer, pastor and an evangelical preacher. His writings on the Gospels are considered by many to be the best practical, devotional and Christ-centered commentaries ever written! He said, 'I am one of those old-fashioned ministers who believe the whole Bible, and everything it contains!' 

Eu tenho uma pergunta para lhe fazer. Ela é composta de duas palavras: VOCÊ ORA?A questão é que ninguém pode responder a esta pergunta por você. Se você assistiu ao culto público ou não, o seu pastor sabe. Se você faz orações familiares em sua casa ou não, seus parentes sabem. Mas se você ora em secreto ou não, é um assunto apenas entre você e Deus. Vivemos em dias de abundante profissão religiosa. Há mais lugares de culto público agora do que jamais houve. Há mais pessoas frequentando-os do que em qualquer outro momento anterior.

¿Qué esta sucediendo en nuestras vidas? Cada uno de nosotros, debemos responder a esa pregunta. No podemos cambiarnos a nosotros mismos; otros no pueden cambiarnos; pero alguien más tiene el poder. ¿Estas listo para conocer la verdad?

The reader will soon discover that I am an enthusiastic admirer of the men whose lives and ministries I have narrated in this volume. I confess it honestly. I am a thorough admirer of them. I firmly believe that, with the exceptions of Martin Luther and his contemporaries and our own martyred reformers, the world has not seen any such men since the days of the apostles. I now send forth this volume with an earnest prayer that God will pardon all its imperfections, use it for His own glory, and raise up in His church today men like those who are here described. 

Contenido: "La justificación aclarada", "El significado de la justificación", "La justificación como un acto forense", "El inmediato y único fundamento de la justificación", "El instrumento de la justificación", "No la fe, sino Cristo", "Reconciliando a Pablo con Santiago", "Abuso de la justificación", y "Paz por medio de la justificación". 

I want to tell you what perhaps the greatest Christian who ever lived (the Apostle Paul) thought of the cross of Christ. Believe me, the cross is of deepest importance. This is no mere question of controversy; this is not one of those points on which men may agree to differ and feel that differences will not shut them out of heaven.

Las palabras de nuestro texto son pocas, breves y se dicen pronto; pero contienen grandes verdades. Al igual que aquellos versículos de oro: “Para mí el vivir es Cristo”, “Ya no vivo yo, mas vive Cristo en mí” (Fil. 1:21; Gál. 2:20), las palabras a los colosenses son singularmente ricas y significativas.

Una de las mejores obras recibidas de J. C. Ryle en su época y se ha mantenido así desde entonces. Es una exhortación directa a orar fervientemente y sin cesar. La oración es una puerta estrecha que muy pocos quieren cruzar....

It is indifference that leaves people alone and allows them to go their own way. It is love, tender love, that warns them and raises the cry of alarm. The cry of “Fire! Fire!” at midnight might sometimes rudely, harshly, and unpleasantly startle a person out of his sleep, but who would complain if that cry was the means of saving his life? The words except you repent, you will all likewise perish might at first seem stern and severe, but they are words of love, and they could be the means of delivering precious souls from hell.

Wisdom, encouragement, and exhortation is contained in this audiobook. Not because of the author's brilliance, but because of the words of truth contained in the gospel of Mark. And just as the apostle Mark didn't draw any attention to himself, so also J. C. Ryle clearly and wonderfully directs his words and our thoughts toward the inspired words of scripture. If we truly love God, we will love his word; and the more we study his word, the more we will love God.

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. 

Wisdom, encouragement, and exhortation is contained here. Not because of the author's brilliance, but because of the words of truth contained in the gospel of John. And just as the Apostle John didn't draw any attention to himself, so also J. C. Ryle clearly and wonderfully directs his words and our thoughts toward the inspired words of scripture. If we truly love God, we will love his word; and the more we study his word, the more we will love God.  

None of us likes to be sick. But as J. C. Ryle points out, sickness, like the sin that caused it, is universal to all mankind. And while sickness is indeed a misery, Ryle shows that, at the same time, it confers general benefits on mankind. He writes, “It is a blessing quite as much as a curse. It is a rough schoolmaster, I grant. But it is a real friend to man’s soul.” 

Another quality audiobook from Chapel Library. Christ is all glorifies Christ. It presents the risen savior as the redeemer throughout history and, indeed, without beginning or end. It is a great encouragement both to the seeking soul and the seasoned saint. 

Wisdom, encouragement, and exhortation is contained in this audiobook. Not because of the author's brilliance, but because of the words of truth contained in the gospel of Luke. And just as the Apostle Luke didn't draw any attention to himself, so also J. C. Ryle clearly and wonderfully directs his words and our thoughts towards the inspired words of scripture. If we truly love God, we will love his word; and the more study his word, the more we will love God.

Arthur Pink introduces us to this weighty subject by asking the question, “Is man a totally and thoroughly depraved creature by nature?” Thomas Reade then tells us about the deadly consequences and bitter fruits of Adam’s fall: In Adam, all die. We then consider Joel Beeke’s helpful survey of the doctrine of human depravity. A second article by Thomas Reade leads us to a painful truth: The heart of man is evil. But he does not leave us there: He takes us to the blessed Son of God for deliverance.
