Chapter 12. We Must Be Free Likewise from All Mental Perturbation

Nor merely from anger, but altogether from all perturbation of mind, ought the exercise of prayer to be free, uttered from a spirit such as the Spirit unto whom it is sent. For a defiled spirit cannot be acknowledged by a holy Spirit,Ephesians 4:30 nor a sad by a joyful,John 17:14 Romans 14:17 nor a fettered by a free.Psalms 51:12 No one grants reception to his adversary: no one grants admittance except to his compeer.
