Background on John of Dalyatha
In his own words on 1 Thessalonians
- 1 Thessalonians 5:17
Why did Paul say, "Pray and do not grow weary"? As long as he is a servant, he indeed prays; but once born of the Spirit in the world of prayer, he is a son of God, and he has authority over riches, being an heir; thus he does not merely ask.
