NO, NO, NO--Chain prayers are not supersticious. And such types of praying are effective. Like all prayers, such requests must be made from the heart with Faith. It does no good to ask an atheist to pray as part of the chain, and this could very easily turn Jesus away from the people requesting prayer.
I was trying to send this message out to Leonie Ambrose, but it did not go out. So, I'm trying to send this to other members. Please, please help please try to pass this around to someone who will answer this question.
Leonie,
Thanks for your reply, but this still DOES NOT answer my question!! Do bad things really happen to people who DON'T pass around the chain prayers? Therefore, 'ARE CHAIN PRAYERS SUPERSTICIOUS"? I really need a direct answer.
God bless.
Teresa.
