C'mon Bella_Bru! Think before you type! JESUS is the One who *GAVE* us the Lord's Prayer when His disciples asked how they should pray to GOD. Can you understand now how idiotic your statement is? You're not being fair to Bella_Bru. Someone posted that Christians pray ONLY to Jesus. What I think Bells was saying is that the Lord's Prayer is directed to God, not Jesus.
Now, having said that.. you said that Jesus gave the disciples the Lord's Prayer when they asked how they should pray to God. And the Lord's Prayer clearly is directed TO God. Not Jesus. So, Jesus says to pray TO GOD!
So how can it be that Christians are supposed to pray ONLT to Jesus????

No we pray to the Father THROUGH Jesus.

If someone has made such a statement, I would happily disagree. But Christians *do* pray in Christ's name. That's a big part of our religion and there's no reason to try and wrestle it away from us.

Christians pray to God in the name of Jesus.
