Prayer in Jesus' Name

[wsmitty]

I was once asked to pray at a reception at my previous job. I was asked to pray in a way that wouldn't offend people. In other words, just saying God and not Jesus. I looked at my boss and said "huh?"

He then went to a pastor who was there and asked her to pray. She did and closed with "In Jesus Name". Me and a co-worker were like Praising the Lord.

Rick Warren just didn't say it out of habit, but He said to not only acknowledge Jesus Christ, the Son of God, but also to acknowledge the One and Only True and Living God.

RW was being ridiculed for being chosen to do the prayer because of His beliefs.

Let us not forget that we live in a world and the end times where the belief is that we all serve the same God, whether through Mohammed, Buddha, or God. One World God that doesn't offend.

I applaud RW for saying "In Jesus Name". Let us not forget that He is the door to our Heavenly Father. He is the only way. And as stated in an earlier post, at the Name of Jesus, every knee shall bow and tongue confess that He is the one and only true Lord!

Sorry bout the message here, but I felt I had to stand by at what He said. Yes, we can make a habit out of saying "In Jesus Name", but when we say it and mean it, Look out!
