181 - L Nov. 25:2/3-5 - The Rev. W. Allen Fiske, rector of Grace church,
delivered a sermon yesterday based upon the test of "Fveryone that asketh,
receiveth." He said: "It is a great mistake to suppose, as many have
done, that men may pray and pray, yet receive no reply.... 'Everyone that
asketh receiveth" ... an ungodly nation must of necessity reap the vengeance
of the Almighty, while a faithful and prayerful people will as certainly
reap his blessing.... statesmen alone can never save a people.... God estimates
a nation...by the character of its people....neither President nor armies
can save us... God alone can save, and unless our sins as a nation are so
ripe, that our death has been decreed, God will save us in answer to the
submission, humiliation, and prayer of our people.... The immediate cause of
all our troubles being the want of purity and unselfish patriotism in the
national councils, let us seek to deserve, and pray God to raise up to us
leaders with whom unselfish love of country shall prevail over every other
consideration." (28)
