Is it a sin to pray privately during corporate prayer (like pastoral prayer)?
Sorry if the options above are hard to understand (only allowed 100 characters). Feel free to discuss Biblical foundations, principles, etc.
There are different options here:
1) Praying private prayers (Type A) different than what the elder is praying (e.g. elder is praying for sick people, you are praying for revival, government, or yourself)?
2) Praying privately (Type B) along with the subject of what the elder is praying (e.g. elder is praying for the sick of the congregation, leaves someone out, you pray for that person..."and be with John Doe too.")
3) Praying Type A prayers are sinful, Type B is not
4) Praying Type B prayers are sinful, Type A is not
5) Praying Private prayers during corporate prayer is sin in all circumstances
6) Other (I don't know, etc.)
