But honestly, if you look under the Religion heading here on FR, wicca is listed. They will read what is written even if they don't reply. I'm not picking on you, Mom, nor even any of your ping list, whatever differences we have: we are advised of worshipping Mary, despite repeated statements the she is not God. These people pray to people who have not known, or have rejected The One True God! I know intercessory prayer is frowned upon and expiatory suffering regarded as untruth by some noon Catholics in these forums. If you will not do that, and it is your choice, them can you not get your ping list and post? I may not agree with all you say, but the strong, no-holds-barred approach seen here, with the knowledge of Scripture would make you all formidable opponents. As has been said by the ping list, souls are at stake! You all have plenty to say about what you believe: it's needed there, as well- or more! You said that you can warn people, then there are two FReeper threads in which you all can do a great amount of good!
I don't know of ANY Christians who do not believe in intercessory prayer.
We are commanded to pray for one another and there's always the need to pray for souls to be reached for Christ.
The expiatory suffering is another matter. But Jesus promises that when we pray the Father hears and answers and that is enough for us to come boldly to the throne of grace. I don't see that anything is needed nor is there anything that we can do to move our Father's heart more than just asking.
We can maybe feel like suffering shows Him the sincerity of our desire for the request, but all He asks of us is to come to Him with our requests. That simple.
Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God
cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
