The True Nature of Religion

By Roswell D. Hitchcock

MERE belief would make religion a mere theology. Mere emotion would make it a mere excitement. The true, divine idea of it is a life begotten of grace in the depths of the soul, subduing to Christ all the powers of the soul, and incarnating itself in a patient, steady, sturdy service. In short, it is doing the will of the Father which entitles us to a solid assurance of our redemption by the Son.—Roswell D. Hitchcock.
