In this episode of Raising the Dead, we have remastered J. C. Ryle’s tract – The Cross: A Call to the Fundamentals of Religion. The sound is improved, and we are nearing our final standard setup for recording and processing (until the next equipment upgrade). The reading comes in at 50 minutes in length. Bishop Ryle asks the question, “What do you think and feel about the cross of Christ?” May God bless you as you consider what Ryle wrote so many years ago.
Oh, reader, beware of self-righteousness Open sin kills its thousands of souls. Self-righteousness kills its tens of thousands. Go and study humility with the great apostle of the Gentiles. Go and sit with Paul at the foot of the cross. Give up your secret pride. Cast away your vain ideas of your own goodness. Be thankful if you have grace, but never glory in it for a moment. Work for God and Christ with heart and soul and mind and strength, but never dream for a second of placing confidence in any work of your own.
