( Matt 6:7 )- Don’t use vain repetition, ” The Lord’s prayer word for word, etc or other prayer’s where you say the same thing WITH NO HEART DESIRE BEHIND IT; Have relationship behind your words, it’s o.k.to pray scripturally, just be genuine, and have relationship with God, dialogue, heart driven, purpose behind it!

( Matt 6:14-15 )- These verses you must ground with the entire consistently of the Bible, from Gens to Rev, not just in content of paragraph; After Jesus rose from grave, all your sins are forgiven at that point ( Col 2:13 ), and here, Jesus hadn’t went to the cross yet, so the time periods are different in what Jesus accomplished; This was a principle before cross, but after cross, you are forgiven despite if you forgive others; There are still negative consequences with other humans, and devil for not forgiving, but with God, you are forgiven;
