| Summary: | One of the most quoted and important verses today, Matt 6:10, is generally misunderstood. The second petition of the Lord’s Prayer is a prayer for the eschatological ushering in of the kingdom. It cannot have the sense of a gradual coming of the kingdom. The third petition is a prayer that God’s purposes come to pass. It is not, as is often suggested, a prayer for the increase in obedience to God’s will. These petitions are not synonymous. |
