I don't believe the misunderstanding here is with the word cooperate. The question is can any Christian in heaven help at all for a Christian/lost person on earth. IMO, no they can't. The bible clearly states Jesus is the only help we have, so should be the only one we turn to.

So why ask people to pray with us at all.
Why bother?

*****************

And yet we still say the Lord's Prayer/Pater Noster.

Our Father, who art in Heaven,

hallowed be Thy name,

Thy kingdom come,

Thy will be done

on earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation

but deliver us from evil.

Amen

Then you should have no trouble producing a verse that says so.

Hi Becky. I hope all is well with you. It's been a while.

I'm fine for an old geezer.
