Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

Mr. Loth-to-Stoop

"Mr. LOTH-TO-STOOP. This is not prayer, but presumption; nor does it emanate from the soul, but from Satan. The name of the messenger indicates the spirit that prompts the overture, even the pride of the carnal nature, which will not stoop to the yoke of Jesus, or submit itself to the sovereignty of the rightful King."[2]
