You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it." (<A class="biblelink" title=" Read the passage " target="_blank" href="http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=John+14:13-14,15:16,16:23-24&go=Search">John 14:13-14 cf. 15:16; 16:23-24</A>). To come <I>in Christ's name</I> signifies coming in the authority of Christ - much like the apostles who invoked Christ's authority when driving out demons and healing people (e.g. Acts 3:6). Coming in Christ's name also signifies our desire to pray according to the will of Christ - we would not come with His authority if we were not aligned with His will - therefore, to pray <I>in Christ's name</I> is to pray in such a way that is in-line with the character of Christ, seeking His will, knowing that it is only through Him that we can come.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.1way2god.net/prayer.html"><P>As sinners, we have no right to approach God, as He is perfect. But through faith in Christ, believers can approach God with confidence as Christ acts as the mediator between God and man:</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/C2120BB0-8368-4EF7-9B3C-95C8C760FD1B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
