“God is over all, but don’t throw out your brothers and sisters in the Faith who have gone before.”


If my brothers and sisters are omnipresent and omniscient in heaven, they have the attributes of God, and therefore are not only higher than the angels, but share in the divine attributes.

If the saints stand in the presence of God in heaven, they obviously know whatever he wills that they should know. We can't place any limitation on their knowledge, only He can do that.

I have no idea what you mean by "omnipresent in heaven," though. The term is self-contradictory.

They’re in Heaven. And human beings can be higher than the angels, which is exactly what annoyed Satan.

But I’m not sure what point you are making.
