John 16:24 — praying in Jesus's name: Jesus as the access point replacing the temple

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 7) 00:48:00 – 00:49:03

Question from Danada Morin about what it means to pray in Jesus's name

Mike connects praying in Jesus's name to the temple theme he has been covering in his Mark series. In Judaism, the temple was the access point to God. Jesus replaces the temple: praying in his name means accessing God through Christ as mediator. Prayers are heard not because of personal holiness but because of Christ's goodness and intercession.
