The Lord used the word "Father" as a term for the Source of all things. In other words, the producer of everything.
It is known as the Our Father because it is a prayer to god that is the father of all things
It is simply the way we Christians refer to God when we pray, I usually say Dear Heavenly father and so on. The Lords prayer was Jesus teaching us how to pray, we say God is the father, Jesus the son and then there's the holy spirit. So God is our father in Heaven
This is Jesus' way of instructing people how to pray. Prayer does not have to be long and drawn out, but short and simple. Since God is supposed to be omnipotent and omnipresent, He already knows the details of one's prayer requests.
We must thank god for our food as Jesus always prayed before he ate, we can see it in the feeding of the 5,000. It is also mentioned in the lords prayer.
Because the prayer was taught to the people by Jesus (who is believed by Christians to be God or Lord, as one of the three in The Trinity, the unity of "The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost").

The Lord's Prayer begins -" Our Father which art in Heaven." It was given to the 12 disciples by our Lord Jesus Christ at their request to him to teach them to pray. We call it the Lord's Prayer as it was given by the Lord Jesus for our Lord God in heaven.
Yes he did. He taught us how to pray and to tell God to forgive our sins. :D
He was giving an example of how we should pray. He was telling the disciples not to pray as the hypocrites and pharisees did. So he gave them the Lords prayer as a kind of guidline for praying.
"For thine" is an old way of saying "yours," usually used in formal or poetic language. "The kingdom" refers to a territory or realm ruled by a king or queen. Together, "for thine and the kingdom" could be interpreted as a pledge of loyalty or duty to someone in a position of power.
I think getting closer to God addressing him through the OUR FATHER is a complete prayer passed over to us by His Son, Jesus. So this prayer is perfect, and needs no other paraphernalia or substitute.
