Thanks for taking the time contribute, I understand your position. However, there are zero expamples in the Bible where we are instructed to seek help from dead people. There are many examples where Jesus is worshipped. In fact John The Baptist and Angels specifically mention to worship Jesus and not them.

Thank you, bigcat32, for your gracious words: and that's exactly right. That's why Catholics don't worship Mary.

It is fascinating to realize that she was the first person in history to accept Jesus Christ as her personal Savior...

So where does the Bible teach sola scriptura? If nowhere, then what is the significance of something not being found in Scripture, especially it is part of the Tradition?
