Prayer to Jesus Christ constitutes yet another evidence for his deity. Jesus instructed His disciples to pray to Him (John 14:14; 15:16; 16:23-24). Acts 1:24-25 records that the disciples prayed to Christ for guidance in choosing a replacement for Judas Iscariot. Stephen voiced two prayerful requests to Jesus: “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit,” and “Lord, do not hold this sin against them” (Acts 7:59-60). In Damascus, Ananias instructed Saul to be baptized and to call on the name of Jesus (Acts 22:16). The apostle Paul later wrote that “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Rom. 10:13; see 1 Cor. 1:2). Paul also appealed to Christ to remove the “messenger of Satan” from him (2 Cor. 12:7-8). Indeed, the New Testament closes with a prayer to Christ: “Come, Lord Jesus!” (Rev. 22:20).

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat oven to 350&deg;F.  Grease & flour 2 9"x5" loaf pans Cream butter & sugar.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.  In a separate
bowl, mix together all dry ingredients, except raisins and poppyseeds. In a
measuring cup mix milk, water & flavoring.  There should be just over 1 cup
liquid.  Add dry mixture and liquids alternately to creamed mixture,
beating well after each addition. Add poppyseeds & blend thoroughtly, then
add the raisins and stir them in gently by hand (to prevent the
flour-coating from coming off which will send all the raisins to the bottom
of the cake!) Pour batter into prepared pans and bake appx. 1 hour 10
minutes (till the edges pull away from the sides of the pan, and a skewer
stuck in the center comes out clean). This is a very densely textured cake,
not like the standard white-cake type of poppyseed cake.
