Let me explain this to you (interpret scripture for you) The elders received the prayers and presented them to God.
For what ever reason(s) not all the prayers went directly to God they went to the elders.
<>P>As far as ALL Christians being saints I would say many have the potential to be. Some as you know are Christian in name only.

This is an assumption from silence- since the text doesn’t say that. Arguments from silence are never used as a basis of doctrine - or any assumption could become a doctrine.
