>>Your car is physical.
Our souls are spiritual.
The Dead Saints can, indeed, help us with one but not the other.<<
You miss the point. Once you are bringing in the spiritual, there is only one intercessor needed: Jesus Himself. I will ask other LIVING people (people still occupying their earthly flesh and living in this created time/space continuum) because the Bible and Jesus clearly teaches it. But once I attempt to communicate directly to the spiritual realm, my ONE and only one intercessor is Jesus. And to suggest that I would need to “pray” to someone else first is, basically, limiting “his” power.
There is not one single place in the Bible where Jesus or his apostles or anyone else who was a follower of Jesus wrote in the Bible, where we are instructed to communicate with someone who no longer occupies their earthly flesh. Quite the contrary, in fact. Once our words are heaven bound, they are to Jesus Himself. In all sincerity, if you can direct me to any scripture instructing me otherwise, I’d be interested in seeing it.
Do the saints in heaven pray?
Apparently your bible lacks the following passages.
“Matthew 17:1-9, Mark 9:2-8, Luke 9:28-36”
I suggest you get a new bible.
