“You don’t know what a prayer is and you also don’t know your Bible. The word “pray” comes from the Latin word precari, which simply means to entreat or ask. A prayer is a form of communicating a request,, typically of a spiritual nature. Also, Jesus would never have commanded Lazurus, given their relationship. That would have been highly disrespectful.”

IOW, Jesus did not pray to dead people when He commanded Lazarus to come forth.
What a joke. Jesus, God Himself come in the flesh, PRAYING to a mere man????
There is no end to the absurdities that Catholics come up with trying to justify their unscriptural doctrines. You just can’t make this stuff up.
“What a joke. Jesus, God Himself come in the flesh, PRAYING to a mere man????”
Prayer is communication, it is not adoration, although you certainly can include adoration within your prayers. Many people like yourself don’t understand that prayer goes two ways. God prays to us and for us. Sometimes prayer is not pleasant at all. How many times have people prayed to God and questioned Him or made selfish requests? How many times does God answer with a message we don’t want? Open your mind to the power of prayer and you will be closer to God.
