Matthew Poole and continuators on Mark 11:26

26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

See the Notes on Matth. 21.22. and Ch. 7.7. and Matth. 6.14. In which Texts we before met with what we have in these Verses, teaching us the necess[illegible: 1 letter]ty of Faith, and Charity to those who would so pray as to find acceptance with God. This also lets us know the necessity of Peoples full Satisfaction, that what things they ask of God in Prayer, are according to the Will of God, without which it is not possible they should pray, with a full persuasion that they shall receive, whatsoever they in Prayer ask of God. And because it is impossible we should in this point be fully satisfyed, without a Divine Revelation, as to things not necessary to Salvation, our Faith or Persuasion can rise no higher, than a full persuasion, that if things of this nature, when we ask them of God in Prayer, be such as are for our good, and for Gods Glory, we shall receive them. The cause was otherwise as to those to whom Christ had given a Power to work Miracles; what they asked of that Nature, they must know it was the Will of God to effect by them, and they could not without Sin doubt of it.
