Lots of somebodys, in fact.
Matthew 6:5-7
5And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6But 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.
7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
That's it. I don't think any Christian has read the Bible in its entirety.
Too busy handing them out...
ReplyDeleteI have pointed this out to them before and most claim it is about pride and not about secrecy. These are the same people that claim Jephthah did not kill his daughter even though a plain reading says so. Amazingly these are the same people that believe the Bible is literally true (except when they say it is not).
