There's quite a few cards in this deck, that aren't legal in modern: Glittering Lion, Soul Charmer, Hazy Homunculus, Ribbon Snake, Rethink, and Rhystic Circle. A few others I didn't bother checking (looks like they are recently printed in duel decks or something - they might be modern legal, or they might not).

And then... whuh... what are you going to do to win with this deck? Although a lot of the cards are good in a one or another imagined situation, the variance is so great, that you will almost never draw what you need, when you need it (mostly: the early game). To get your deck more consistent, reduce the number of 1-ofs a lot. You want to go white control? cool, that's a good plan. 4 Ghostly Prison, 4 Wrath of God/Day of Judgment, 4 Path to Exile, and some winconditions.

And just a couple of observations: Sage's Reverie would be a lot better in a deck with more auras. Here, it's unlikely that you will get to draw more than 1 card of it. And 1 Faith's Reward also seem a little mysterious... exactly why is there 1 in your mainboard? You could plan around it - fill in your deck with sac'ing effects and artifact ramp, and play like eggs. but otherwise, it's not a good card.
