McNeile’s book frames Christian prayer as a defense against “Self” in the wrong sense, warning readers that apparent zeal for God’s great end can tempt self-suppression to fail. The preface explains the contrast between self-assertion and love to God, and describes how religious activity, education, or perceived excellence can feed self even when devotion seems sincere. The contents outline chapters progressing through self, selflessness, self-development, self-assertion, self-indulgence, and related spiritual themes.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":45,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/religion-spirituality/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/after-this-manner-pray-ye-third-edition-revised-concerning-christ-how-to-say-your-prayers/409818/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/after-this-manner-pray-ye-third-edition-revised-concerning-christ-how-to-say-your-prayers/409818.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"\tJames","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-16","2026-09-28",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":8},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What danger does the author say the book warns against?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The preface warns readers to watch for a danger that is “ever-present,” namely the tendency for “Self” to come to the front even when one seems keen to further God’s end.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"How does the author distinguish between Self in the wrong sense and genuine devotion?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"The author contrasts suppressing “Self” (in the wrong sense) with developing the love to God that makes a person want what God wants.
