“AND..... JESUS HIMSELF is interceding for us to the Father.
Who needs Mary when we have JESUS HIMSELF doing it?”

Not only Christ...

Romans 8:26-27

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.

Correctomundo....

That means that not only is there no one praying for those poor people, there are two of the best prayers in the universe praying for them.

This may come as a shock to some people, but in reading Scripture it is so clear that God WANTS to save people.

He’s gone to such drastic lengths to save people.

And then to portray Him as so hard hearted as to have to be begged and negotiated with in order to convince Him to let people into heaven, is an affront to His character as He revealed Himself to be in the pages of Scripture.
