In our scripture lesson this morning from the Gospel according to Luke, Jesus’ disciples ask him to teach them to pray--just like John the Baptist taught his disciples.
The disciples’ question implies that John taught his disciples to pray. I wonder what John taught his disciples. We don’t know; there is not enough information. I’m just curious: would his teaching about prayer have been similar to Jesus’ teaching? Would it have been different?
Was John praying to the same God to which Jesus prayed? Was John’s God different? Was it the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? Or was it the revelation of a different dimension of this great mystery we call God? In any event, knowing John, as we do, we can assume that his teaching about prayer probably had something to do with sin and repentance.
