What follows is part of a conversation I had with someone regarding the Roman Catholic Church.
I wrote, “Where in the Bible do we find the prayer of the rosary? “
Someone responded, “The rosary is almost entirely scriptural. Apostles Creed, the Lord’s prayer, the Hail Mary (from Luke chapter 1), and meditations on the events in Christ’s life.”
Yet, it is a series of prayers, repeated – many words. We are told to not babble or use repetition in prayer like pagans who think their prayers will be heard because of their many words, because God knows what we need before we ask, as we see in Matthew 6:7-8
7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
