The three steps of the Christian life, as set forth by one of the old fathers, are these : " Out of self, unto Christ, into glory. " Out of self is the beginning of all; as the Master said, " If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me. " It remains to say that there is one condition affixed to the efficacy of prayer and only one, namely, that the petitioner shall be able to begin his prayer on this wise, " Our Father. " In order to do that, however, ...he must be in right relations with God. And this is im- possible until he has accepted the overtures of God's mercy in Christ. Then " the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availcth much. " There is no " righteous man " except the man who formulates his prayers in filial terms. Faith, sincerity, reverence, im- portunity, humble acquiescence are all embraced in " Our Father. " He who can thus approach God, may ask what he will and it shall be done unto him. There- fore, to your knees, O Israel !
