Jelly-fish Christianity



(J. C. Ryle, "One Blood")

One plague of our age is the widespread dislike 
to sound doctrine. In the place of it, the idol of 
the day is a kind of jelly-fish Christianity—a 
Christianity without bone, or muscle, or sinew— 
without any distinct teaching about the atonement 
or the work of the Spirit, or justification, or the 
way of peace with God—a vague, foggy, misty 
Christianity, of which the only watchwords seem 
to be, "You must be liberal and kind. You must 
condemn no man's doctrinal views. You must 
think everybody is right, and nobody is wrong."
