Is the Lord’s prayer the only teaching of Our Saviour on prayer? Is it the only prayer He said?

Are you unfamiliar with St. Paul and his words on intercessions?

Does your comment have anything to do with intercessory prayer or the topic?

I don’t think so.

Perhaps the actual point in discussion can continue, likely to go round again.

Speaking of which; Wasn’t it you who said something like; “Granted, the saints in heaven may be praying for us?”

Maybe they are. Maybe they aren’t. We don’t know cause Scripture doesn’t tell us.

In either case, that in no way justifies praying TO them for anything and there’s no point in praying FOR them since they are complete in Christ and don’t need anything any more.

Please...do tell and SHOW where Paul taught anyone to pray to anyone OTHER than God Almighty, interceding for others....

Where does Paul or Peter, or Christ teach us to pray to anyone other than God?
