Foreword
The following addresses were delivered from a conviction that it might be beneficial to talk about some of the greatest treasures contained in the Bible, and to offer them as a source of fresh inner strength, adequate to the demands of this great age and the great future which must follow. The conviction, announced before the addresses were delivered seems to have proved acceptable and serviceable.

The results of the most recent research and conjecture relating to the Lord’s Prayer are of course familiar to the author. He cannot find anything convincing in them from a theological point of view. Their practical result was to cause him to stress Jesus as a model of inner conduct rather than Jesus as a source of certain sayings.

Serious and penetrating study discovers in the Lord’s Prayer an inexhaustible store of great and new truths. We possess commentaries on it by Luther, Matthias Claudius, and Johannes Müller, as well as fine sermons of Löhe, Kögel, Frommel, and many others. It was only a vivid personal experience of the quantity of hitherto unspoken truth contained in the Lord’s Prayer which gave the author courage to add yet another volume to the immense literature relating to it. May each reader taste a little of the joy that fell to the lot of the author in preparing these addresses!
