Reprobated practice removed?

Please the intercession of Mary?

Isaiah 53:12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he (Jesus) bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Romans 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

Hebrews 7:25 Wherefore he(Jesus) is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Jesus is the one and only who makes intercession for us Period!
Calling on Mary is a reprobate practice.

This is just another teaching that can be summed up in the letters to the churches that Jesus himeself had John send in where he warns of the doctrine
of the Nicolaitanes.
. In Rev. 2:6 He speaks to Ephesus saying: this thou hast, that thou hatest the works of the Nicolaitanes, which *I* also hate. Here Jesus says He actually hates something. The Nicolaitanes are not mentioned in any history of the 1st century but the name really does mean something. "Nico" means a "ruling class" and "laitanes" means "over the common people." The term "laymen" was never known in the first century but became a doctrine later on. There are a whole class of doctrines on this now deep rooted practice.

Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Why does Paul ask other Christians to pray for him? Doesn't he know he's wasting his time and engaging in a reprobate act?

Yeah, I'll believe that when you protestants stop asking your little friends to pray for you too.

Mary's place in the Christian religion should be obvious. She is the morning star preceding the Light of the World, Christ. The only difference is that all her light is derived from the Son she heralds. By God's eternal decree Mary has been associated with the highest mysteries of the Christian religion, being the very instrument of the Incarnation of the Eternal Son of God, and, therefore, of our redemption. We have devotion to her both because of our admiration of her, and because of her interest in our eternal welfare. When we honor Mary, of course, we are but honoring Christ in her. Without Him, she would be nothing, and she would be the first to admit it. And the honor we show her cannot displease Christ. He was the best Son who ever lived, and would rather be displeased were His Mother ignored or slighted.
