I do believe, son, that he is praying for your understanding, not your salvation.
RE: No need to pray for me
When one makes a statement like that it manifests the sin of pride, as if one is sinless and perfect.
Despite that, we are commanded to pray for each other by our Lord and Savior, so I will.
I believe it is important to some to assert, "Because I am saved, my understanding is correct." From this it seems to follow that if one disagrees with the understanding one is denying the salvation.
And somehow from this follow attacks on the Catholic Church.
A self-described exegete insists that we rely on his interpretation while attacking those who rely on the interpretation of scholars.
I need more coffee.
