Default Re: Pray-Reading is Scriptural

Many thanks to Raptor for all the good references that show what "Pray-Reading" should really look like. I would note that virtually all of the references given show this to be an INDIVIDUAL practice, and not something for use in a corporate setting, such as is done in the Local Church of Witness Lee.

Christians have been practicing pray reading since the beginning as part of any mature Christians daily divisional time. Many different words and terms have been used, but the basic concept is exactly the same - praying the Word of God back to the Lord.

I must be honest and point out that none of the references provided look anything like the pray reading that is practiced in the Local Church...not even close really. And again, none of them reference practicing pray reading in a corporate setting, which is a bread and butter practice in the Local Church.

So is "Pray Reading" as it is outlined in the various references given on this thread scriptural? Absolutely!
Is "Pray Reading" as it is practiced in the Local Church of Witness Lee scriptural? Absolutely Not!
Ok, now we can conclude
