Matthew 6:13b --the doxology of the Lord's Prayer. We heard a short defense of its presence in the Lord's prayer, and then an explanation of it's utility: it gives us an opportunity to affirm our faith (spelled out in connection with kingdom, power and glory) and it teaches us to use arguments in prayer (again spelled out in connection with kingdom, power and glory, so that the argument we use in prayer are not self-centred, but rather glorifying to God).
