Title:
Harry B. Adams - "To Persist in Prayer" (July 30, 1989)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: 26:12. Sermon end time: 46:31.

  • Jesus taught us that God hears prayer and answers prayer. Yet, even the believer may knock and find the door locked. In this case, Jesus also taught us to persist in prayer, not that we may change God but that, in persisting we may be changed. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)

  • Key quotation: “Through Jesus Christ, we know a God to whom we can pray with faith and with assurance, but our confidence in prayer does not rest on its tested results, but in the conviction that God so loved us that Jesus Christ came to share life with us.”
