The genesis of this book is very simple. Having occasion to prepare a special address on "Prayer, " it occurred to me to collate and compare all the words spoken by our Lord himself upon the great theme, as it had often been found that His teachings upon any given subject, when so combined, constitute a consistent and harmonious whole-a body of doctrine, singularly comprehensive, and symmetrically complete.

Nothing has a more refining, purifying, exalting influence on character than holy expectation based on divine promises.

Perhaps he loses courage, boldness, peace. He begins to doubt and distrust not himself only but God. He is mixing up his own responsibility with that of those to whom he speaks. In other words, the herald reproaches himself wi...
