USLESS RELIGION / PURE AND UNDEFILED RELIGION (James 1:26-27)
"Useless religion" and "pure and undefiled religion" are contrasted.
Religion here means the external patterns of behavior connected with religious belief. It refers to the outward forms rather than the inward spirit. It means the outer expression of belief in worship and service rather than the doctrines believed.
