Bible Note: EdB, I have no thoughts on last Rites for someone still living. But, if they are already dead and the Catholic church tries to raise the dead, then no one should try to stop them if they pray in the name of Jesus Christ. However, "Hail Mary mother of God..." will not work. It says pray over him, anointing him with oil "in the Lord's name" not "in the Lord's mother's name. [ :-) ] You probably mean praying someone out of Purgatory. In this case they need to find a scripture that says "Is anyone among you *dead*? Then *he* must call for the elders ...". After the dead guy calls for the elders then someone will probably need to stop them from running away first... Pastor Glenn |
