“When a man is a Christian in name only, and not in reality – in outward things only, and not in his inward feelings – in profession only, and not in practice – when his Christianity in short is a mere matter of form, or fashion, or custom, without any influence on his heart or life – in such a case as this the man has what I call a ‘formal religion.’ He possesses indeed the form, or shell, or surface of religion, but he does not possess its substance or its power.”

Landry,
Feel free to place the above Ryle quote on your site. All you need to do is place a “HT” (Hat Tip) at the bottom the quote, where you received the quote. It’s just simple blog courtesy. That’s it.
