“Your issue is with the word of God...”

Your issue is with the word of God.

Scripture tells us that there is only one mediator between God and man, Jesus Christ. Correct and also Catholic belief.

Requesting intercessory prayer from someone is not forbidden by Scripture. Requesting intercessory prayer from another person does not somehow morph into the mediator role of Christ that is His alone, and all Catholics recognize this.

Since you are not Catholic, you have no business reinterpreting wrongly what we supposedly believe, and deliberately distorting Catholic practices to appear unscriptural. Non Catholics have no authority to twist Catholic beliefs to appear unscriptural when there are clear prooftexts in the bible allowing intercessory prayer.

ZERO “prooftexts” advocating, allowing or demonstrating any prayers to saints. Authority doesn’t flow from your denomination. It starts with God and is spelled out in His word.
