Spurgeon - 12 - “If there is no prayer, you may be quite sure the soul is dead. We are not to urge men to pray as though it were the great gospel duty, and the one prescribed way of salvation; for our chief message is, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ.” It is easy to put prayer into its wrong place , and make it out to be a kind of work by which men are to live; but this you will, I trust, most carefully avoid.”
