The Lord’s Prayer is not open to any interpretation
Jesus was very clear when he expressed
“that men ought always to pray, and not to faint” (Luke 18:1).
“But thou, when thou prayest, enter
into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is
in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But
when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that
they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto
them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him”
(Matthew 6:6-8).
“After this manner therefore pray
ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done
in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we
forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the
glory, for ever. Amen (Matthew 6:9-13).
