>>Sorry, but YOU are the one who NEEDS to prove your assertion.<<

Scripture says it's the Holy Spirit that intercedes and helps us pray. Catholics say it's Mary and their so called "saints". Scripture says to go boldly to the throne of God and not to some counterfeit priest. Scripture never once condones praying to anyone who has passed from this life other then God. I don't have to prove scripture. Catholics have to prove how what they have added is condoned in scripture. If they can't we can know that it's simply a man made up religion.

>>Jesus exhorts us to obey TWO great commandments.<<

Loving your neighbour now includes praying to them? When did that happen?

>>Since YOU claim that the command of Jesus EXPIRES at death,<<

I claim you need to stop loving someone after they die? Please show where I ever said that. The Catholic fallacy of those who have passed from this life still being active in this life is no where found in scripture. It's a pagan myth.

>>The burden of proof is ALWAYS on the guy who claims that the teaching of Jesus is either null, or that it expires.<<

And still you have not shown where Christ nullified the prohibition of eating blood. The double standards of Catholics is astounding.

I hardly see any point in replying, since you turned most of what I said inside-out.

My question is: Where does Scripture teach that THOSE WHO ARE IN HEAVEN cannot and do not obey the second great commandment?

YOU claimed that those in heaven CANNOT obey the second great commandment.

But Jesus tells us to obey the two commandments. There is no conflict between the two commandments.

Since you are the one who is contradicting Jesus, you bear a considerable burden of proof.
