Expository Thoughts on the Gospels – St. John Vol. 1

Description

J. C. Ryle’s Expository Thoughts series provides a religious consideration to Scripture, penned in a simple to comprehend way for viable instruction and learning. These 7 series are an efficient complement to the Gospels, with the author emphasizing relevant episodes and giving helpful viewpoints into their importance and definition. His elucidations are discerning, his notes are realistic for everyday Christian living, and his statements manifest the boundless wonder J. C. Ryle obtained in the Scripture.

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was fully God. The Word was with God in the beginning. All things were created by him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created. In him was life, and the life was the light of mankind. And the light shines on in the darkness, but the darkness has not mastered it.”

The Gospel of John, which starts with these sections, is in various points greatly dissimilar than the other three Gospels. It includes much statements which they remove. It removes much statements which they include. A better purpose may simply be presented for this dissimilarity. But it is sufficient to recall that Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John transcribed with the absolute encouragement of God. In the overall idea of their corresponding Gospels, and in the specific facts, in all that they document, and in all that they do not document, they were all four similarly and wholly directed by the Holy Spirit.

John Charles Ryle was the first Anglican bishop of Liverpool. He was the oldest son of John Ryle, private investor, of Park House, Macclesfield, M.P. for Macclesfield, and Susanna, daughter of Charles Hurt of Wirksworth, Derbyshire. He was born in Macclesfieldon.
