Christ doesn't want us having a one on one relationship with his mother or any departed beings gone to Heaven for example while we are in this world. We are shown what this gets you when a man pleaded with Abraham. I do believe there is a verse as well where horrors were brought by calling on the dead for favor. Christ wants a one on one relationship with us. Through Him and Only Through Him do we come too the Father asking in His Name. We we finally go before The Father Our Father sees not our sin. He sees His Son. Our sin is removed. Not by years of existence in some obscure place hoping that our remaining sins eventually go away, but rather by the Baptism of The Blood Of Jesus Christ the very instant we except His free gift of salvation. Remember everyone what John The Baptist said of Christ and Baptisms.
This stuff reminds me of children who have formed a club. Admission is free if you ask too join. But first you have to go do this, do that, meet this condition and that condition that the leaders of the club can think of. Of course these making the rules were excepted into the club and did none of it.
Mans Conditions upon salvation and our relationship with GOD have cause heartaches and The Bible is full of examples. The Galatians are a good example of what I am saying.
CAPS were intentional because The Gospel should be shouted :>}
