The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum R.C.'s and Revelation 5:8

Knowfear,

This is simply another example of Scripture twisting by the RCC to try and justify one of their pagan traditions. For the most part the "saints" of the RCC are merely old pagan gods camouflaged in deceit.

It is fact that the Scripture presents all true believers as saints. It is fact that all true believers, while living, pray. It is also Scripture fact that our God answers the prayers of His children (elected saints) according to the wisdom of His will.

This perversion of Scripture by the RCC opens the idolatrous door wide for them to bow and pray to their discusting images and relics.

I do not know of a single reformed commentary on Rev. 5:8 that even suggests that we may "pray to or through the saints". Rather, we are to pray for our brothers/sisters and serve them, by God's grace, while we live on this corrupted earth.
