“J. H.,” Markseleigh, Suffolk. We can hardly believe it possible that the lecturer to whom you refer meant to convey the idea that prayer is the life of the believer. Scripture so plainly teaches that Christ is our life, it seems almost incredible that anyone, taking the place of a Christian lecturer, could assert that prayer is our life. Had he said that prayer is a sweet fruit and evidence of life, and a means of strengthening the life; and further, that it is the very breathing of that life, we should then most heartily agree with him. But to put one of the fruits of life in place of the life itself—to put prayer in the place of Christ—we consider to be worse than a sad mistake. We are most thankful for what you are able to tell us of the good resulting from our Magazine. The Lord’s name be praised!
