"That saying of John has no relevance to the status of Mary. Why are you using it?"

If Mary was a saint who died and went to heaven, then Johns descriptions of the saints in heaven would have been a description of Mary.

Johns descriptions of the saints in heaven is not one of saints who can make intersession, but of saints waiting for the final judgment.

If you believe what John wrote were just the sayings of John, then I can't help you.

Mary is a separate category, just like the Elders who are similarly saints and DO make intercession.

“And the smioke of the incense of the prayers of the saints ascended up before God from the hand of the angel.” Revelation 8:4

How do you explain this verse?
