When you pray in a conspicuous manner, when you advertise the prayer - it is EXACTLY what Jesus told you NOT to do. You can ignore Jesus if you desire, but this is NOT out of context. It is in context with the other verses and the Bible in general.
@TouchOfGreatness What Jesus is saying there, isn't to not pray in a conspicuous manner. He's saying that you shouldn't pray in a conspicuous manner JUST so that people see you.
As far as conspicuous prayer in public, I think Jesus addressed that directly: *Matthew 6:5
"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen."
@TouchOfGreatness Read that whole passage to see what it means you cannot take a verse out of context this verse means that you should not pray for the wrong reasons.
