St. Paul raised people from the dead; why can’t we praise St. Anthony for restoring eyesight?

>>why can’t we praise St. Anthony for restoring eyesight?<<

The conversation was treating saints like gods. You said you didn’t. I showed where you do. God does the healing not Paul and not Anthony and neither should be praised or prayed to. The practice of the RCC and it’s teachings is contrary to scripture as you have been shown over and over again.

Because St Anthony can't restore eyesight.

That is a perfect example of what is wrong with the whole praying to saints thing.

Where is Jesus in all that? Who's getting the credit for the miracle? It sure isn't God.

Dead people are getting credit for the works of God.

That's just wrong on so many levels.
