Bible Question (short): Father in heaven |
Question (full): How is it possible that God can pray to God? Would his prayer be an expiation for his sins? Shouldn't he be giving an example of praying to himself, because is not Jesus the focus of Christian prayers? If he was giving an example of praying to the Father in heaven, should we not be following his example? Koran 4:171 O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: Nor say of God aught but the truth. Christ Jesus the son of Mary was (no more than) an apostle of God, and His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in God and His apostles. Say not "Trinity" : desist: it will be better for you: for God is one God. Glory be to Him: (far exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is God as a Disposer of affairs. |
