1 John 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
Let God be the one to teach you
Let false preachers would teach you isn't in the Bible, find it in the Bible yourself. Accept what the Bible says, not what anyone says
Ecclesiastes 7:27 Behold, this have I found, saith the preacher, counting one by one, to find out the account:
1 Thessalonians 5:20 Despise not prophesyings.
1 Thessalonians 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Romans 12:9 Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
Calling upon God or praying to God is one of the doctrines of Lord Jesus Christ. Praying is a commandment of Christ, but many prayers are in vain
St. John 9:21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
God don't listen to sinners
Proverbs 18:8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.
What are the manners of praying?
St. Matthew 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
St. Matthew 6:8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
Rosary only appeared in 1214, it's against Christ, don't pray with it
You don't need to keep repeating your prayers because God had already heard you even before you pray, it's like an English adage that says "A word is enough for the wise" so God is not hard to talk to, he is not deaf
Ecclesiastes 5:1 Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.
Pray to God is secret, and he would answer you in public.
Don't pray while you stand so that men would see you, don't pray like an hypocrite. It's not prohibited to pray while standing but don't be an hypocrites. Hypocrite are the ones standing while they pray
St. Matthew 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
Only if there is no way to kneel down to pray you can stand and pray
The Acts 20:26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
St. Matthew 26:39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
When Lord Jesus Christ prayed, He knelt down, the same way the early Christians do
If a man pray with his head covered, it's a lack of respect to God. Women should pray while her head is covered, praying with her head uncovered is a dishonor to God
The head of woman is her husband, the head of man is Christ and the head of Christ is God
You should pray in Horizontal way, not vertical.
1 Corinthians 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
