To: Mad Dawg; caww; stonehouse01
How is what caww said "flogging that dead horse"?

2Tim. 4:2:" Preach the word, be instant, in season, out of season: reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine."

It is not Scriptural to pray to Saints. When stonehouse posted to pray to St. Dominic, that was unscriptural. Caww did exactly as God's word says. Explained, with Scriptural doctrine, that Christ is our mediator. Simply explained. The other option was to let the post of stonehouse stand, unanswered. To not answer is in a way, to agree. Hardly flogging a dead horse, to explain Scripturally why caww cannot be in agreement in prayer with stonehouse to a dead saint.

I’ll cut to the chase:

It’s not Scriptural to read Scripture the way, say, dispensationalists do.

It’s not Scriptural (if Maccabees is in your Bible) to think you can’t or ought not pray for the dead.

It’s not Scriptural to think that we and the blessed dead are not in the koinonia of the Spirit one in Christ through whom all prayers are heard.

Are you edified? Neither am I edified by the return at least every two months of this subject, this flogging.
