Not if you say them out loud. Do you.

I sgree that what Jesus meant is that you should not make a public display of your prayers. But that is exactly what you do in church. You do go to church?

Grace may be enough for you, but not for me. I was told what I had to accomplish in this lifetime and I, apparently for the first ever in all my lifetimes, accomplished it by preventing a space defense from being deployed. That is my 'good works' for this lifetime, along with all else that keeping all the commandents entailes.

Perhaps I will not have to come back again. But it is likely that I will have to come back again and again with more work to do in order to make heaven come to earth.

Sincerely,

Richard
