八十四、当向谁祷告
179问:我们只当向上帝祷告吗?
答:是的。
- 惟独上帝鉴察人心(王上8:39;徒1:24;罗8:27),垂听呼求(诗65:2),赦免诸罪(弥7:18),并满足众人各样的心愿(诗145:18-19);
- 并且惟独上帝是可信的(罗10:14),惟独祂值得崇拜(太4:10);
- 因为祷告也是崇拜的一个特别部分(林前1:2),所以,只可向祂祷告(诗50:15),不可向其他任何存在者祷告(罗10:14)。
Q. 179. Are we to pray unto God only?
A. God only being able to search the hearts, hear the requests, pardon the sins, and fulfill the desires of all; and only to be believed in, and worshiped with religious worship; prayer, which is a special part thereof, is to be made by all to him alone, and to none other.
