Your faith and devotion to your Church is to be admired. In the end if we keep Christ as our focus we will be in the same place and both will be proved right and wrong about a great many things.

1 Thessalonians 5:17, Paul states — we are to “pray without ceasing.”

Jesus teaches us to pray in Matthew 6:9 “Our Father who art in Heaven..” He did not name anyone else.

Acts 4:12 ...And there is salvation in no one else, for there is NO OTHER NAME under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

Acts 4:12 ...And there is salvation in no one else, for there is NO OTHER NAME under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

That is the third observation in the Prologue to the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
SECOND EDITION

PROLOGUE

"FATHER, . . . this is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent."1 "God our Savior desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth."2 "There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved"3 - than the name of JESUS.
