The Mystery of the Our Father’s Ending October 2, 2019

Catholics conclude with “deliver us from evil,” whereas most Protestants, following Matthew 6:13 in the King James Version, go on to say something like, “For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.” Are Catholics leaving out this phrase from […]
