"Why does the Bible forbid necromancy? Saul was condemned for visiting the witch of Endor to speak with Samuel. Samuel was certainly an Old Testament saint but was Saul was not supposed to try to communicate with him."

Old Testament saints were not yet resurrected. Jesus was the first to be resurrected. After that, others were raised. But not before. Does your church not teach this?

Yes. My church teaches this. But the Old Testament Saints were not taking a dirt nap. Their souls live on New Testament saints are are not resurrected either, by the way. They have not received glorified bodies yet. That will happen at the Lord's return.
