“Let it never surprise us to hear of true Christians being persecuted, in one way or another, even in our own day.

Human nature never changes.

Grace is never really popular.”

–J.C. Ryle, Expository Thoughts on John, Volume 3 (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1873/2012), 3: 98. Ryle is commenting on John 16:1-7.
