Let me put it this way:
Scripture doesn't teach that a person loses the ability to intercede, or ceases to be a member of the Communion of Saints once they enter heaven!
That a person is cut off from the Body of Christ once they are "in Christ" in eternity, makes no sense. That a saint in heaven is disabled in terms of praying or interceding any more, makes no sense.
The burden of proof is on you, to prove that a saint in heaven supposedly is dis-membered from the Body of Christ.

Well then you go right ahead and make up whatever suits your needs! You still have the pesky "John 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven."

Unless those saints in heaven have I-phones, there won't be any communication...
