The Religion Racket

Religion is a failure! It is an obvious fact that the high ideals, lofty goals, and high-sounding phrases of religion do not find much expression in daily life. The sham and hypocrisy of modern day religion are brought into glaring light when we compare what we are with what we profess to believe. Repentance and faith produce a reality in our religion that makes sham and pretense unnecessary. It is all summed up in one sublime statement that Jesus made: “Repent ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15).
