Prayer
Author: John Bunyan
Two works on prayer are here brought together. In Praying in the Spirit Bunyan defines what it means to pray with the spirit and with the understanding, and deals with difficulties in prayer. In The Throne of Grace, he explains how to approach God s throne in prayer and opens up the blessings God s people receive from the high priestly ministry of Jesus Christ.
