NASB | Matthew 6:16 ¶ "Whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites do, for they neglect their appearance so that they will be noticed by men when they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 6:16 ¶ "And whenever you are fasting, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they put on a sad and dismal face [like actors, discoloring their faces with ashes or dirt] so that their fasting may be seen by men. I assure you and most solemnly say to you, they [already] have their reward in full. [Is 58:5] |
Subject: If I repeat it, would Jesus hear me? |
Bible Note: Dear Shalom, You don't believe that my prayers should be limited simply to the Lord's prayer. You gave me scripture references showing that that was not the only prayer that Jesus sent up to His father. (Matt 26; John 17) But I'm still trying to understand why is it wrong to limit my prayers to what He taught in Matt 6? Do you agree that it shows immaturity on behalf of the disciple? |
