In whose name do you pray in this age of the Holy Spirit? The World Mission Society Church of God (WMSCOG) prays in the name of “Christ Ahnsahnghong” who is God the Holy Spirit. You might ask, “How do you pray in the name of a man?” And you may insist that prayer must be done in the name of God the Son, Jesus. Do you think people took your claim for granted 1,900 years ago? Sorry, but you would be judged as “heretical” as soon as you insisted it.

In whose name did people pray who believed in God?

Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD [Jehovah], save me!” (Psalm 116:4)

According to this Verse, those who believed in God prayed in the name of God the Father (Jehovah.) At that time, there was only the Old Testament. Therefore, only the verse “pray in the name of Jehovah” could be found. However, only the members of the Early Church prayed in the name of Jesus, not Jehovah. Do you think they were wrong?

Why did the Disciples pray in the name of Jesus, not Jehovah? It’s because the Savior of the age of the Son was not Jehovah, but Jesus. In other words, at that time, it was the age when people could be save in the name of God the Son (Jesus), not in the name of God the Father (Jehovah). So, Jesus commanded to pray in His name.

Until now you have not asked for anything in my name [Jesus]. [From now on] Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. (John 16:24)

I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name [in the name of Jesus], so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. (John 14:12-14)

Jesus said that prayer should be done in His name when He returned to heaven. Since then, people could not receive response when they prayed in the name of Jehovah. However, in the age of the Son, the Jews who believed in God the Father (Jehovah) persecuted those who prayed in the name of God the Son (Jesus) because they regarded the Early Church as a strange group.

Now we are living in the age of the Holy Spirit. Are you still praying in the name of Jesus, the Savior of the age of the Son? Christ Ahnsahnghong, the Savior of the Holy Spirit Age, has already come according to the prophecies of the Bible. Just as people prayed in the name of the Son in the age of the Son, so we should pray in the name of the Holy Spirit in this age of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the members at the World Mission Society Church of God pray in the name of Christ Ahnsahnghong who came as the Holy Spirit.
