Fuck that bitch, if there's ever a hell may she be in the deepest and darkest and hottest part of it. For those who dont know, she used sick and near death patients and wouldn't let them have medical attention and use them for her PR & publicity stunt. Not to mention millions and millions of dollars in aid never reached the sick and poor she claimed to nurture and care for.

Taking your logic further, there can be no "Christians", ..... as none of these are mentioned in the Bible. Acts 11:26 And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Oops, you're right. I was thinking about the notion that Christ instructed them to be called Christians. |

However, if you look deeply at the Oxford Movement, and you look at the concept that some Lutherans believe in Saints (heavenly) praying for the Church, then it blurs the line between "prayer to the dead". Again, it is not the same as the Catholic ideology, but it still follows the basic premise of intercession from a non-terrestrial being. During my BA, the only Church near the campus was a Lutheran Church, and I recall the practice of intercession, although it was nowhere near as prominent as in my own Church. Anglican and Methodist views
Early Protestant views on Saints, their veneration, and their intercession vary, clearly as a function of each sect's independent interpretation of scriptures, and in some cases each sect's independent interpretation of which books in the Bible even comprise the scriptures. The first Anglican articles of faith, the Ten Articles (1536), defended the practice of praying to saints,[6] while the King's Book, the official statement of religion produced in 1543, devotes an entire section to the importance of the Ave Maria ("Hail Mary") prayer.[7] However, the Thirty-Nine Articles (1563), as well as the Methodist Articles of Religion (1784), condemn the "invocation of saints" as "a fond thing, vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God" (Article XXII - Anglican; Article XIV - Methodist). However, theologians within the Anglican Communion make a clear distinction between a "Romish" and a "Patristic" doctrine concerning the invocation of saints, permitting the latter, but forbidding the former. The Oxford Movement saw a revival of the Patristic practice, which is now found among High Church Anglicans and especially Anglo-Catholics.[citation needed] William Tyndale had been an early opponent of the practice.[9] Lutheran views Traditional Lutheran belief accounts that saints pray for the Church in general,[10] but are in later dissertations as not quite mediators of redemption.[11] Martin Luther, the founder of Lutheranism, approved honouring the saints [12] by saying they are honoured in three ways: firstly by thanking God for examples of His mercy[citation needed] ; secondly by using the saints as example for strengthening our faith, and thirdly by imitating their faith and other virtues.[13][14] |

Honestly it is a matter of semantics. We call those that were alive on earth and have died, "Dead", in that they are no longer alive here on earth.

Merry Christmas to you too. However, it's a bit of a strawman question because we do not "Ask the dead saints to pray for your needs"--we ask fellow Christians, alive in Christ as He told us they are, to pray for us, just as I ask you to pray for me. Honestly it is a matter of semantics. We call those that were alive on earth and have died, "Dead", in that they are no longer alive here on earth. We know that they are "alive" in a new life in Heaven. But we do not believe that we are commanded to ask them to pray for us. It's all good, brother. We simply believe that they are not dead as Christ said they were not dead. I'm not about to contradict Him. And it's not a command, just a practice that is neither mandated nor condemned. I still love you though and am proud to call you friend. |

... The practice of prayers of intercession is found AND recommended in Scripture, but the Church is Christo-centric and there is no path through Heaven, but through Christ himself. So you have never prayed on behalf of anyone else, a mother, friend, wife? That is a far different practice than pleading for a saint, a dead person, to pray for us. The Bible tells us that those who die in Christ are not dead. Why don't you follow scripture? And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Well shit, that settles that. |
