She is wondering why God is praying to himself.




Somebody tell her its just the human side praying to the God side, and see how everything becomes clear as mud for her.

It's very simple God had a Son, Jesus, who isn't God, but a separate and distinct person. They loved and interacted with each other and Jesus was sent by His Father to save the world.

John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Yep I have.

Have you considered that the Word was with God? That the same was in the beginning with God?
