We are instructed to pray. Why? It makes no sense. But orders is orders. So we pray. Maybe, somehow our prayers are useful to God, not what He needs, but what He likes to use.

Yes, you are instructed to pray. Where are you instructed to pray to any but the Father or Holy Spirit?

Didn’t you mean . . . Father, Son, Spirit?

Or were you emphasizing that even Scripture doesn’t explicitly state praying even to Intercessor Son?

Have you read The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis?

In the final, apocalyptic struggle, the dwarves fire on both sides.

Later when they find themselves in Paradise, they are resolved not to believe it and, trapped in their cynicism, find that what to others are rich food and wine are to them like stable refuse.
