Prayer to God is Scriptural, and all whom God ordained as the elect are part of the body of Christ.

I'm glad you enjoyed the excerpt from John Knox. I have a lot more by him if you'd like the links.

Why do you pray to dead people when our only mediator is Jesus Christ who redeemed all those who believe in Him as Lord and Savior?

You do understand what intercessory prayer is, yes? If so, this question is a non-sequitor.

So I was thinking you were saying intercessory prayer is scriptural in the first part of your reply; however, this disconnect was in the last.

I am also interpreting your reply to mean that you do believe the saints in heaven are part of the Body of Christ. Am I correct?

thanks very much for your reply...
