Present the Gospel Accurately by J.C. Ryle

Do not present only one side of Christianity. Do not keep back ‘the cross’ of self-denial that must be carried, when you speak of the cross on which Christ died for our redemption. Explain fully what Christianity entails.

Entreat men to repent and come to Christ; but bid them at the same time to ‘count the cost.
