So does this mean that we can't ask anyone for a favor? Even ourselves?...because that would be worship? You limit God, we are HIS creations, we are meant to interact. Why would God deign to use an angel or a human to do His bidding when He could do it all Himself if we weren't supposed to interact with His creations? Why do we not live on manna from heaven and instead plant and grow our own crops to eat? Why doesn't He just manufacture babies and drop them on the street corner? It is not JUST me and GOD, it is me and God and all of God's creation!

God gave us a home, earth, filled with all we need to survive, I use that earth for the air I breath, for the gravity that keeps me grounded, for the water that God created me to need, does that mean I worship the earth? Jesus told us to love, as God has loved! So to give honor to anyone is worship? He gave Eve to Adam as a helpmate, he gave us each other to love as he loved and loving God's creation, all of it, is no disservice to God. To love is to worship? I refuse to limit God and I refuse to take your theology as my own. In your hypersensitivity you might think that asking someone to use the power of God to pray for me or to actually do something for me gives them worship. I beg to differ, I refuse to believe your limited theology and I'm willing to rely on the infinite Mercy of God.

We have God who says He is faithful and just and will answer our prayers. We have His only begotten Son who is our one mediator between God and us. For the life of me, I will never understand why when one is given direct access to the King, he runs around searching for another, and says to himself and others, my way is better. And it isn't my theology I did not write the bible

Romans 1:21

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
