The Bible uses repetition, as well. Psalm 136 repeats "His mercy endures forever"; WL mocked those who followed such repetitive patterns. "Too low"; he did this from the dias, and none protested this nonsense. They were stupefied. Paralyzed. Mute.
It seems as though the Bible "as written" is fine as long as it lines with "the ministry" - if it doesn't then it's dismissed. Even mocked.

I speak only of praying the words of the bible that make sense to do so. I thought that is common sense.
Of course, not every word in the bible is from Gods mouth. The words 'crucify him' for example are not from Gods mouth. It is not appropriate to pray read every word in the bible.
