The Roman Catholic teaching of praying to Mary and praying to saints is fraudulent witchcraft because THE LIVING HAVE NO COMMUNION WITH THOSE WHO ARE DEAD. We cannot pray to saints, that is witchcraft. We learn that form the parable of Lazarus and the rich man. I read from Luke 16:22:
“Now it came about that the poor man died and he was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom; and the rich man also died and was buried. 23“And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his bosom. 24“And he cried out and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue, for I am in agony in this flame.’ 25“But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that during your life you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus bad things; but now he is being comforted here, and you are in agony. 26‘And besides all this, between us and you there is a great chasm fixed, in order that those who wish to come over from here to you will not be able, and that none may cross over from there to us.’ 27“And he said, ‘I beg you, father, that you send him to my father’s house— 28for I have five brothers—in order that he may warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’”
The dead have NO COMMUNION WITH THE LIVING. The rich man was in Hades from where he could not escape. There was no way for him to communicate with his brothers who were still alive. There is only ONE MEDIATOR between God and man and that is Jesus Christ. YOU CANNOT PRAY TO MARY, YOU CANNOT PRAY TO THE SAINTS, THEY ARE DEAD, THEY ARE WAITING FOR THE RESSURRECTION, they have no communion with the living.
The apostle Paul writes in Timothy 2:5 “For there is one God, and ONE MEDIATOR ALSO BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS, “ Nobody else can pray for you to Jesus or to God. There is only ONE MEDIATOR and that is Jesus Christ. You need to pray to Jesus YOURSELF! Nobody else can do it for you. There is no mediator, you cannot pray to the dead, you cannot pray to saints, to Mary, to nobody. Your priest cannot pray for you. YOU need to get on your knees and call out to Jesus, He is the only mediator and He is waiting for you to speak to Him, to pray to Him, to cry out to Him. There is nobody else friend, you have been told a lie!
Get on your knees and speak to Jesus. He is the only truth, dear friend, NO MAN CAN HELP YOU! Only Jesus Christ can help you.
May Jesus bless you.
