About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"PRAYING TO GOD" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
PRAYING TO GOD
I WROTE ABOUT THIS ONCE BEFORE AND IT WAS NOT RECEIVED WELL SO I THOUGHT I WOULD MENTION A COUPLE OF THINGS ABOUT IT. THIS IS ALL TAKEN FROM GOD'S WORD AND I ASKED THAT IF ANYONE FOUND THAT WE WERE TO PRAY TO ANYONE ELSE TO PLEASE LET ME KNOW AND I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM ANYONE ON THAT. SO, LET'S GO AGAIN WITH IT.
WHO DO YOU PRAY TO? THERE ARE THOSE THAT ASK THEIR DEPARTED MOM OR DAD TO WATCH OVER THEM. SOME PEOPLE PRAY TO MARY, THE MOTHER OF JESUS. SOME PEOPLE ASK DIFFERENT SAINTS TO WATCH OVER THEM OR DO OTHER THINGS FOR THEM. I AM NOT PICKING ON ANY SPECIFIC RELIGION. I LOVE MARY BECAUSE SHE WAS THE MOTHER OF MY LORD BUT I CAN'T FIND IN GOD'S WORD THAT I AM TO PRAY TO HER.
IF YOU ARE DOING THIS IT COULD BE THAT YOU WERE TAUGHT THIS ALL YOUR LIFE AND YOU JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. I CAN'T FIND ANYWHERE IN THE BIBLE THAT TELLS US TO DO THIS. I HAVE FOUND THAT WE SHOULD ONLY PRAY TO JESUS, OUR SAVIOR, AND GOD, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER. SEE WHAT IT SAYS IN THE BOOK OF JOHN. LET'S LOOK AT WHAT JESUS TELLS US TO DO IN JOHN 14:13-14 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. IN THESE VERSES JESUS IS TELLING US TO ASK IN HIS NAME AND HE WILL DO IT.
NOW LET'S LOOK AT JOHN 16:23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you. IN THIS PASSAGE HE SAYS THAT THE FATHER WILL DO IT. THESE TWO PASSAGES TELL ME THAT IF WE EITHER ASK OUR SAVIOR JESUS OR FATHER GOD, IT WILL BE DONE. HOWEVER, IN BOTH YOU HAVE TO ASK "IN THE NAME OF JESUS".
LIKE I HAVE SAID BEFORE, I HAVE MUCH TO LEARN ABOUT WHAT IS IN THE BIBLE AND AGAIN IF ANYONE CAN SHOW ME WHERE WE ARE TO PRAY TO ANYONE ELSE EXCEPT JESUS AND GOD, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I NEVER WANT TO WRITE ANYTHING THAT IS NOT BACKED UP BY GOD'S WORD.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
