We confess to dry and casual formalism in much of our worship. The narrow way is both high and difficult. Few there be that stay on it. We easily descend to the broad road. It is more comfortable.
Men are easily bored with religion.
The grandeur of God's cause becomes tempered to our moods. We are content to accommodate the faith of our fathers to our indifference, and God's requirements to our weakness. It seems easy to go along with the crowd, as typified by the hobo. True Christianity presupposes a total response to Jesus Christ and to His way of life. We must beware of lowering our moral and spiritual ideals.
