Practical Religion: Being Plain Papers on the Daily Duties Experience Dangers and Privileges of Professing Christians

About this book

As with all Ryles works Practical Religion is clear concise and penetrating. It was designed to be a companion to his other books Old Paths Knots Untied and Holiness providing guidance on how the Christian believer is to live. In Ryles own words it treats of the daily duties dangers experience and privileges of all who profess and call themselves true Christians. Far from advocating a works-based religion these papers are all about how a Christian can practically respond to the grace that has been freely given to him in the person of the Lord Jesus Christ. Ryle was a great enemy of hypocritical and nominal religion or churchianity as he called it. These articles remain a great plea for a real heartfelt devotion to the Lord in love and service founded on the great doctrines of Scripture. No Christian who reads any one of these papers will be left unaffected. Believer in Christ remember this! Whatever you do in religion do it well. Be real. Be thorough. Be honest. Be true.
