How to you explain Moses and Elijah at the Tranfiguration with Peter watching as Christ conversed with Moses who died? Peter saw it then it was eventually written down for all to read . So Moses was dead as he was talking to Jesus? Huh! All who are dead can’t hear? Hello?

Matthew 17:1-8
And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

Yep. They were still dead. Not once did Jesus say, “Why don’t you boys pray to Moses?” “How ‘bout that Elijah dude? He can certainly help when I am not around.” The dead have gone to the place of departed spirits and are awaiting the resurrection. They have no part in the living any longer. Did Moses or Elijah interact with Peter? Did they even acknowledge him? When Peter offered to build an alter there, what did Jesus say? Spend some time pondering that.

Keep trying to stretch your Catholic nonsense and have it exposed for the heresy that it is.
