Eleonore Stump, Petitionary Prayer

Eleonore Stump wrote an article about the status of her prayers. The stub begins her argument by defining a prayer prayer as seeking something from God through prayer. Stubble pointed out that since this is the definition of prayer and prayer, prayers of praise and worship do not ask for it, but because they show loyalty it can not be regarded as a petition. Stumps answer Kant 's argument that God does the right thing, and whatever you ask for, that appeal is meaningless.

In most cases, there are two types of prayer: goal-oriented prayer and non-goal-oriented prayer. Goal-oriented prayers are also called prayer prayers because of certain demands. The basis of prayer and prayer is traditional monotheism followed by Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. With this kind of prayer, people pray in our hearts. In most cases, prayer prayers emphasize people's selfishness and self. Furthermore, people tend to be apart from God if prayer can not get a response. Christian's petition prayer is when people seek differences under the name of Jesus and according to the teachings of the Bible.

I tend to be silent, I am trying to be with God. With this gift, my father is gone. I can not ask him any more. And I do not know if I will be there for years. My mother may help but I will still help. Sometimes I will accept; sometimes I will not accept it. But my father said, "I remember my son, I am waiting for you here, please tell me if you need help." I do not know if I believe her. I did not ask

In other words, considering the strange situation of my prayers and prayers, especially the role of faith in this type of prayer, the common (and false) teachings of the various prosperous evangelical groups and people's pray The advantage is not the same as those who teach it. Teaching itself is the answer to that person's prayer based on the level of that person's faith (which may not be true teachings, but the meaning is the same). That is, if you can not answer a person's prayers, that person has insufficient confidence in your prayers. In other words, the problem is not God (at least not that he is willing to approve the request, but that he is incompetent as it requires higher faith to answer prayers).
