The Lord's Prayer
this is something i literally just thought of
when Jesus told the disciples the prayer he then followed with:
"For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins."
So what is the actual meaning behind this prayer and it's significance?
Is it just a prayer of forgiveness of sins? or is there more to it?
this is something i literally just thought of
Our Father in Heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil,
for yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
