A 17th Century Jesus Prayer

The 17th century Puritans knew their theology along with having devoted hearts for Christ.

This episode shows one, great example.

It is a short prayer found in the writings of the English minister John Flavel (1627-1691). It sounds like the Eastern Orthodox Jesus Prayer. Yet it calls upon Jesus, whose name means, “God Saves” to be a Savior to His people.
