Opis

WE believe that "at the name of Jesus every knee should bow "and that He alone who taught his early disciples can also teach us how to pray. We believe that prayer is a great reality; that prayer changes things; that prayer, if a lost art, is lost only for those who have lost the consciousness of God. Therefore we begin with the Name which is above every name and in the chapters that follow, will strive to bring every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Stradivarius at Cremona is said to have marked every violin he made with the name of Jesus, and his handiwork is still called Stradivarius del Gesu, Mozart wrote at the head of his music score, In nomine Domini. We cannot believe in prayer or write on prayer unless we believe in God. " He that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."
