Bible Question: I need help -- I have been trying to tell my mom that she needs only to pray to God (not to the saints too). She feels that the saints will intercede and pray along with her to God. Please help me with any verses/comments you may have. |
Bible Answer: kel, We are told in scripture to pray for one another. When I ask you to pray with me on a particular matter does that violate the principal that Jesus is the one mediator? The saints here or in heaven, just like us are "in Christ". So we and they pray "through him, with him and in him." Hebrews 12:1-2, Rev 5:8;Rev 8:3-5. I think your mother is in good company with the saints. Emmaus |
