Ooops, try again with correct italicizing for attribution.

In Luke Chapter 9 Verse 28 Jesus himself prays to Moses and Elijah (saints) for them to join him and they do on the mountaintop.

The verse says no such thing. All it says as that HE went up to pray. It says NOTHING about who He was praying TO.

Luke 9:28 Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

Do you seriously expect believers to believe that Jesus the Creator, was praying to Moses and Elijah the created?

Talk about heresy.

Are you claiming that PRAYER always equals WORSHIP?

” Do you ...expect believers to believe that Jesus the Creator, was praying to Moses and Elijah ....?”

No! He wasn’t praying TO them, he was praying WITH them. Moses and Eilijah (saints) are clearly very close friends of Jesus. He also allowed Peter and John and James to see them at the transfiguration.
