Are You Ready or Not? The Coming of Antichrist Part 3: Praying to our Father should develop in us two fundamental dispositions: The Father is in heaven, his dwelling place, our homeland to which we aspire. The Church Father St. Augustine noted seven petitions in Matthew's version of the Lord's Prayer, the first three theological for the glory of the Father, which draw us towards him, and the last four present our wants to him and request his grace.

The first series of petitions carry us toward him, for his own sake: It is characteristic of love to think first of the one whom we love. The second series of petitions are an offering up of our hopes. The term "to hallow" means to recognize as holy, to treat in a holy way. Gregory of Nyssa, a Church Father in Cappadocia in Asia Minor, wrote around AD that "of all good things the most important for me is that God's name should be glorified in my life.

THE OUR FATHER

The sanctification of God's name in the world and our own salvation depends on our life and prayer. The Kingdom of God is in our midst in the Eucharist. This second petition prays for the growth of the kingdom of God in the "today" of our lives, bearing the fruit of new life in the Eight Beatitudes of Jesus. Of great interest, a rare variant of Luke Ignatius of Antioch, in his Letter to the Ephesians 7: Gregory of Nyssa continues this concept in his sermon on this phrase: God's expression of his will is the commandment that "you love one another, even as I have loved you" John This commandment summarizes all the others and expresses his entire will.

We ask for God's loving plan to be fully realized on earth as it already is in heaven. Through prayer we can discern what is the will of God and obtain the endurance to do it. May we learn obedience! The original Greek Bible has the Imperative of Entreaty expressed in all of these petitions; in other words, the word please is implied. The Father who gives us life gives us "our bread," the nourishment life requires, both material and spiritual.

The presence of world hunger calls Christians to exercise responsibility and justice for the poor, to share with love our spiritual and material goods.

This petition also addresses the spiritual famine of the world, and the Christian is to proclaim the good news to the poor, the Bread of Life: In this petition we return to Him as a prodigal son and begin our confession as sinners and need of mercy. The Penitential Psalms are beautiful expressions of a repentant heart.

Humility will allow us to say like the tax collector, "O God, be merciful to me a sinner" Luke Our hope is firm, for in his Son we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. There is a condition here: Remember the verses that follow the Our Father in Matthew: But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses" Matthew 6: Wouldn't it be a blessing if we could forgive like Jesus: Pope John Paul II reminds us: These two petitions are nearly identical.

The first part asks God not to allow us to take the path that leads to sin. God does not tempt anybody James 1: This petition implores the Spirit for discernment and strength in the battle between flesh and spirit.
