    What does Martin Luther say the First Request in The Our Father means when one prays, "May your name be holy"?

    • God's name is holy to the world when we pray for it to be holy

    • God's name is always holy but we pray He makes it holy among sinners

    • God is holy in all but name, so we pray God makes his name holy too

    • God does not have an actual "name" thus we pray for even the invisible things of this world

    • None of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. God's name is always holy but we pray He makes it holy among sinners
    Explanation
    Martin Luther believes that God's name is always holy, but when we pray "May your name be holy," we are asking God to make his name holy among sinners. This means that we are asking God to reveal his holiness to those who do not know him and to bring about a transformation in their lives. By praying for God's name to be holy among sinners, we are acknowledging our own sinfulness and the need for God's grace to be made known to all.

    • None of the Above

    Correct Answer
    A. Introduction, 7 Requests, and the Amen
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Introduction, 7 Requests, and the Amen. The Our Father, also known as the Lord's Prayer, consists of an introduction, where we address God as "Our Father," followed by seven requests or petitions, including "Give us this day our daily bread" and "Lead us not into temptation," and concludes with the word "Amen," which means "so be it" or "let it be done." This structure is commonly used in Christian worship and is found in the Bible in Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4.

    Explanation
    In the Fourth Request, "daily bread" refers to everything that nourishes our body. This includes not only physical food but also all the necessary provisions and resources that sustain us on a daily basis. It encompasses all the material needs that we require for our well-being and survival.

    What does "Amen" mean?

    • Please make this prayer true

    • Amen is Hebrew for "Thank you God"

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes, it will happen this way
    Explanation
    The word "Amen" is often used at the end of a prayer to express agreement or affirmation. It is a declaration of faith that what has been prayed for will come to pass. Therefore, the statement "Yes, it will happen this way" aligns with the meaning of "Amen" as an affirmation that the prayer will be answered.
