Excerpt from Being a Christian
An old writer once said: "There is nothing more talked about than religion; nothing less understood; nothing more neglected." If the sermon of Anthony Farrindon in which these words occur had been reported in yesterday"s newspaper instead of having been uttered two hundred years ago, they would not have been better adapted to describe the conditions surrounding us. What is the Christian religion? and what does it mean to be a Christian? These questions have been asked and have been variously answered, for nearly two thousand years; and yet, though often answered adequately, there are many still who do not seem to know what being a Christian is. One thing makes it easier for this question to be answered to-day than ever before; and that is, there are, I believe, more earnest, sincere inquirers of the way of life. If these pages shall be of even a small degree of benefit to such, my purpose will be accomplished.
