How do you feel when you accuse those of us who speak in tongues of "not knowing how to pray", "abusing prayer", and "frivolity"?
Questions are questions not accusations. You imply the accusation through the question. I heard an old evangelist say one time that when you chuck a stone into a pack of dogs the one that yelps is the one that got hit. Works that way with the word of God. I yelp when it steps on my toes.
Prayer is a sacred and holy thing not given to pretense.
Luke 18: 9 ¶ And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
For the cause of Christ
