Nice dodge. Utter depravity, eternal security, and other novel beliefs confuse those who believe them.
All on Earth are sinners, not angels. All in Heaven have been found worthy by the Father. If a person on Earth is alive in Christ, is not a soul in Heaven also alive in Christ?
If both are alive in Christ (the spiritual body of Christ), then intercessory prayers of those alive in Christ in Heaven are efficacious. So, thanks for making my point for me.
Those on earth who have been born again have had their sins erased and are new creatures in Christ.
They are not called *sinners* anymore by God, and none ever claimed to be angels, but rather we are *saints* in the true Biblical sense of the word.

Maybe the intercessory prayers of those in heaven are effective. So what? It still doesn't mean we are to pray to them for anything.
