comforting thoughts they do not describe the experience of the aver age christian today but wc must not bring gods word down to the level of our experience we must bring our experience up to ahe level of gods word jesus metmt what he snld we nre now by our faith un ited to the risen and ascended christ the one who possesses all authority in heaven and on earth matt 28 18 and by reason of this

knowing that we ourselves have no claim whatever upon god it is far more than to adtjto your petition all this i ask in jesus name we may say that and still not be praying in je sus name but in our ow nam thinking that we have some claims upon god jesus has given us a light to approach god on the grounds of his claims upon him and when we do it jesus himself will do what we ask of the father in his name iv frultbearlng j5 16 it would be difficult to find in the uuljword of god a passage that has more comfort and encouragement in it for those who are really in christ and also solemn warning for

our training into highest frultfulness is from the father un ion with christ brings life and power to bear fruit glad submission to the fathers pruning and training brings larger measure of
