Religious Trends of Today

FORWARD

In the Religious Trends of Today, we find receding tides and lowering storm clouds heralding their angry threats of destruction with their forked lightning and deafening claps of thunder. But we also find the incoming tides and rents in the clouds through which shines the Day Star of hope for a confused and troubled world in its mad rush toward chaos and ruin.

While the hands on the clock of human progress are threatened to be turned back- ward for a thousand years, it is encouraging to know that there is a "balm in gilead" and that there is a "physician" whose healing touch is sufficient for such a perplexed and baffled world as we confront today.

Amid all of the shifting and changing scenes of time which have brought us to our modern world, Jesus Christ has lost none of the efficacy of His saving power. The Religious Trends of Today reveal the fact that the gospel of Christ still remains "the power of God unto salvation unto everyone that believeth."
