>>The dead cannot answer prayers and if they are in Heaven why would they want to see the suffering down here?<<
You are making a HUGE assumption.
Have you ever been dead to know what a dead person wants?
No I am not making a huge assumption.
Why would the dead want to bear any suffering from earth? Isn’t Heaven suppossed to be the release of all earthly concerns?
So why pray to Jesus if anyone can answer your prayers?
Fot there is one God and one Mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus.
Have you ever been dead to know what a dead person wants?
Don’t even know how to respond to such an inane statement.
