What does the Bible say about prayer in Jesus' name?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible teaches that through Christ, we have access to the Father in prayer, highlighting the importance of His mediation.
The Bible emphasizes in Ephesians 2:18 that through Christ, we both have access by one Spirit to the Father. This verse indicates that prayer is inherently linked to the Trinity, showcasing the roles of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in our access to God. Christ is the mediator who enables us to approach the Father, as said in John 14:6, where He asserts, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but through Me.' This ensures that our prayers are effective, rooted not in our feelings or qualification but in Christ’s mediation and the work of the Holy Spirit.
