prayer" was the subject of Rev. G. A.
Grise', morning sermon ut Union Church
yesterday. His text was: Confess yOug
faults, one to another, and pray one fol
another, that ye may bs healed. The efs
fectual fervent prayer OF a righteous man
availeth much" James 5, 16
Pastor Gr;se said that the disciples sx-
hOrtatiOn to confess ones sins did nOs
mean that sins should bo conies led in-
discriminatory but only to those who aa
christians could sympathize with ana
help by their prayers. Prayer he said was
the most rational, philosophic and scisn-
cause the Christian as a child of God can
talk wi h tho Father, God. 1t is phtlo.
sophie because the Christian instirc5 is "a
know more of Christ and of his kingdoms.
1t is scientific because it has brought ousl
of the bowels of tho earth those who hav,
died in the flesh. Pastor Grise urged htsl
hearers to have greater faith in prayer 40
to have more frequent communion with
Christ for only by prayer can the childre.s
live and have that peace of mind whic !
God intends he should have.
