Pal, do you know the difference between the word “TO” and “FOR”??

You are right they can no longer pray for themselves. They also can no longer pray for you, or make any intercession for you. They could only do those things when they were alive on earth, in their body.

Once again, an interesting subject on a thread title, completely off topic due to unbelievers hopping on and arguing.

If you don’t believe in saints, just say so. If you don’t believe in asking for the intercession of saints, go start some thread about that and for heaven’s sake leave us alone to discuss Padre Pio.

He was a fascinating man, who lived a very interesting life, and studying him is worthy to some of us.

If you disagree, why start a big argument here about the intercession of the saints? You aren’t changing any minds, you’re just engaging in boorish behavior. How long after this thread started did this argument start?

You are all giving protestants a very bad name. Boorish behavior, pointless argument, and petty bickering.

Please stop it.

You're so wrong. Saints perfrom miracles after they are dead in the physical body all the time.

Oh, but when they are in heaven, they hear our prayers.

Where are you getting your information.

BTW, what do you think about stigmata and Padre Pio. Why don’t you get back to the subject or say, “Bye, bye.”

**They also can no longer pray for you, or make any intercession for you.**

How do you know for sure?

How whose authority do you say this?

BTW, you did not answer my questions.

Has someone in your family died? Did you go to the funeral?
