The entire question of how to interpret the Bible is a tough knot to untie; both the Protestant and the Roman Catholic can claim the other side takes verses out of context. I recommend reading some church history, as apparently Ryle did (he's at least aware of Arians no less than modern Socinians). Yet, if anyone read the early fathers they would find a consensus of the real presence of Christ during the eucharistic sacrifice of the liturgy.

The irony is sola fide almost always starts with sola scriptura, yet the men who gave lists and begged one another to accept James or Revelation as inspired in the first several centuries after Christ are the same men who preached theosis as the doctrine of salvation rather than sola fide.
