Prayer Requires More Of The Heart Than

He Who Is Completely Sanctified, Or Cleansed From All Sin, And Dies In This State, Is Fit For Glory.

It Is Strictly And Philosophically True In Nature And Reason That There Is No Such Thing As Chance Or Accident; It Being Evident That These Words Do Not Signify Anything Really Existing, Anything That Is Truly An Agent Or The Cause Of Any Event; But They Signify Merely Men's Ignorance Of The Real An Immediate Cause.

Now An Infinite Happiness Cannot Be Purchased By Any Price Less Than That Which Is Infinite In Value; And Infinity Of Merit Can Only Result From A Nature That Is Infinitely Divine Or Perfect

They Who Pray Not, Know Nothing Of God, And Know Nothing Of The State Of Their Own Souls.

Prayer Is Not Designed To Inform God, But To Give Man A Sight Of His Misery; To Humble Man's Heart, To Excite His Desire, To Inflame His Faith, To Animate His Hope, To Raise His Soul From Earth To Heaven.
