VI. “And Lead Us not into Temptation”
2850
The last petition to our Father is also included in Jesus’ prayer: “I am
not asking you to take them out of the world, but I ask you to protect them
from the evil one.”163 It touches each of us personally, but it is
always “we” who pray, in communion with the whole Church, for the
deliverance of the whole human family. the Lord’s Prayer continually opens us
to the range of God’s economy of salvation. Our interdependence in the drama of
sin and death is turned into solidarity in the Body of Christ, the
“communion of saints.”164
