Jesus taught that perseverance is the essential element of prayer. Men must be in earnest when they kneel at God's footstool.

Our prayers are weak because they are not impassioned by an unfailing and resistless will.

One of the effects of modern liberal Protestantism has been gradually to turn religion into poetry and therapy, to make truth vaguer and vaguer and more and more relative, to banish intellectual distinctions, to depend on feeling instead of thought, and gradually to come to believe that God has no power, that he cannot communicate with us, cannot reveal himself to us, indeed has not done so, and that religion is our own sweet invention.
