Next stop...Sermon On The Mount.


He’s already there. The second half of the sermon is built around the Our Father, the first half is built around the beatitudes.

Given his proclivity for showmanship, maybe next stop is Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

The current version makes sense to me....I see it as asking God to help us...lead us not into temptation...here saying help us not be lead into temptation. This makes sense when we further beg God to “ deliver us from evil”.

It’s no big deal if the whole point is to ask God for help against falling into evil and our mortal weaknesses, ie temptations.
