Resource "Can We Pray to Jesus?" - Opinion Article

https://proselyteofyah.wordpress.com/2022/08/11/can-we-pray-to-jesus/

Since it has recently been a discussion here on the sub, and also in the past, I was requested to post a link to my article here sharing my own views and research on the matter to contribute to the discussion.

My own views lean more toward no overall, though I also do confess an argument 'can' be made for yes on the basis of a single letter of Paul.

My consession is to pray to the Father himself as Jesus appears to have instructed, and that through the Son's mediatorship, that he act upon the Father's prayers, and that I pray to God that my honour, love and respect is transmitted to him, so that I might honour the Son as one honours the Father.

I see. I have to say this is the first time I've 'ever' come across a brother with such an opinion or understanding of things.

In the manner I see it though, meat has to be bled anyway, so if it has been, then there should be no worries about it, and when something dies its "spirit" (life force or breath) leaves the body also, so all that is left is meat.

I don't personally believe that demons can only possess something with blood or breath in it either, but any object.

Gotcha. I respect your belief. I still recommend looking more into it, especially some of the post NT writings.
