Implications of the Lord's Prayer for Understanding Current Events and Engaging in Politics

“And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." - Matthew 6:7-15 (ESV) This Episode's Links: The last of Haiti's elected officials have left office, leaving the nation in chaos and completely without lawmakers - Daniel Payne, Not the Bee First Black Police Chief Of Minnesota Town Apologizes For Posting ‘Thin Blue Line’ Flag - Hank Berrien, The Daily Wire Breaking: Florida Republican rushed to hospital after falling from roof and sustaining numerous injuries - Carlos Garcia, The Blaze New Zealand’s PM just quit and no one really knows why - NTB Staff, Not the Bee Republican proposes bill to abolish the ATF - Alex Nitzberg, The Blaze
