Briang All the examples you state are before the Holy Spirit was given, before Christ died on the cross, and before we became sons and daughters. I have heard a good story on this subject and let me try it here. Let’s suppose you’re a rich and famous business man. You surround yourself with staff, you have an appointment secretary, a general secretary and a private secretary. Each reports forward to the next. You also have a son that wants to borrow the car. Does that son first go to the appointment secretary, who goes to general secretary who goes to your private secretary who comes in and asks you if your son can borrow the car? No! Of course not. Your son is your son! He walks by all others and goes directly to his father and says father may I use the car. The Bible tells us we are children of God adopted into the family, we have no need for anyone to go ask for us. Jesus and His blood gave us the right to walk boldly into the presence of Almighty God and say Abba Father! Do not let anyone steal your position in the kingdom! Ed |

You, who have found God, are not the purpose of the Saints serving God. It is the lost lamb, those who have not found God, to whom the Saints are reaching out and in doing so, are continuing their service to God. |

Hello Brian.g, There is a "route" of communication that exists between believers and our Father in heaven, provided through His Son. I am content with praying to His Son directly, since He alone is our Advocate to the Father (1 John 2:1). Nowhere is there any other reference in Scripture that states that we have any advocate other than Jesus, regardless of what "work" the saints or angels (who are the ministering spirits sent for those who believe [Heb. 1:14]) may do in our midst. Blessings, Nolan |
