By 'practical religion', Ryle did not mean 'a religion which works' for whoever practices it. He meant a religion which set those who professed it free to work - not so they might be saved but because they were. Practical Religion deals with 'the daily duties, dangers, experience and privileges of all who profess and call themselves true Christians.' It will throw light on what every believer ought to be, to do, and to expect. From Banner of Truth.
