Here is your opportunity to explain why you are drunk, not reading/seeing my post. I'll slow it down for you. As I stated:
For the same reason, members of the body of Christ do not, should not, obey the following scriptural commands/directives, and hundreds of others:
Mark 1:44 KJV And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
Luke 18:22 KJV Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
Matthew 16:20 KJV Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
I know that's pretty deep....Take a deep breath...Or grow a brain, Scarecrow.

It sounds like you are changing the topic.
that doesn't make sense
but
you already gave me the reason why you don't say the Lord's prayer
If you can see patterns at all you might clearly recognize that the "father" Jesus referred to was the Father in Heaven, not the head of the first-century dysfunctional family.
Some folks just don't think this way; I am not surprised that you immediately focused on an imagined contradiction with the title of the thread.
I have too often done the same thing.
Let's sum it up by noting that any pastor who preaches the Lord's Prayer and then later alludes to a God who demands the death of his own Son for the remission of sins is engaging in an unwitting contradiction between Jesus and the theology of his later followers.
I revised it for you:
"that doesn't make sense to me"-you
You are drunk:
"here is an opportunity to explain why you don't say the Lord's prayer
why wouldn't you welcome that chance?"-you, on your last post, before this one
Vs.
"you already gave me the reason why you don't say the Lord's prayer"-your last post
Sober up.
Fine. Explain why you do not:
-"shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded,".
-"sell all that thou hast,"
-"tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ."
as roberts would say
those statements are ambiguous
and
the context for them should be whole bible

The Lords prayer is an example, only an example, of how we ought to pray.
1. Our acknowledgement that God is our Father followed by 2. a further acknowledgement of His Supremacy over all in Heaven and Earth and His desire to fill all mankind with Himself and then 3. The presentation of our petitions with the knowing His response is conditional upon our obediance. The end of the prayer is followed our worshipping Him for simply Who He is. You recite it as some legalistic ritual that brings a blessing when there can be no blessing unless you are of the Father.

But then everything sounds different to you.
but the question is
do you say the Lord's prayer?
why can't you answer that with a yes or a no?
I will have to assume you don't
would you be willing to say why?
My trespasses are already forgiven.
Because I do not see it as necessary for absolution from sin given by a man.

And I answered as to say we all know that so, "why change the subject" like we might be led astray and you need to protect us with your clarification?
please try to ignore her
she has 240 posts in the other thread
and
that is all we need to know about her
she will not explain why she doesn't say the Lord's prayer
except to say that she lives it
whatever that means
how?

I gave my reasons. Too bad [for you] you don't want to recognize it.
what are you replying to?
is that your reason for not saying the Lord's prayer?
if so
it doesn't make sense

Is the Lords prayer something special to you?
