Holiness

Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties, and Roots

By J.C. Ryle

Paperback
400 pages
7-9 Grade
Character
1/2 Credit

Holiness: Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties, and Roots is perhaps J. C. Ryle’s best-known and, arguably, best-loved book. Although many things have changed since 1877, when this book was first published, one thing remains the same: real practical holiness does not receive the attention it deserves. It was to remedy this attention deficit, and to counter false teaching on this most important subject, that Ryle took up his pen. Holiness, as with all of Ryle’s works, is clear and concise, penetrating and practical.

Excerpt

"I admit fully that man has many grand and noble faculties left about him, and that in arts and sciences and literature he shows immense capacity. But the fact still remains that in spiritual things he is utterly 'dead', and has no natural knowledge, or love, or fear of God..."

What Others Are Saying

A book I think every Christian should read. It is so readable, so accessible, a very simple style of presentation, but absolutely forceful, and discerning. Every time I read it the Lord uses it to press upon me the importance and the possibility of holiness. It's one of those books that makes you feel convicted but also inspired.
- Kevin Deyoung

This book is simply the best of Ryle the Puritan-type pastor. Real Christians will find it a gold mine, a feast, a spur and a heart-warmer, food, drink, medicine, and a course of vitamins, all in one.
- J.I. Packer
