When a Christian representing the congregation in prayer concludes with this expression, those listening may also add an “Amen ” in their hearts or audibly to indicate their strong approval of what has just been said. ​ — 1 Corinthians 14: 16.
Savukārt, vai nu balsī, vai pie sevis atkārtodami ” āmen ”, ko publiskas lūgšanas beigās ir teicis kāds cits, mēs norādām, ka piekrītam lūgšanā ietvertajām domām.
