I’m not aware of any Scriptures that say the dead hear the pleas of the living... or any command that we should seek their assistance.

Rev 5:8 And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

Now you can say with full confidence that you are familiar with at least one verse.

Well, no I cannot, since the prayers were to God and not to saints. I suppose you could argue that the elders smelled the prayers of the saints...

Try again.

I will assume that you must also believe ALL Christians are saints, based on this verse? Which they are.
