We never do without Him.
This was already discussed.
Try something new.
When I wrote "Next stupid argument..." that doesn't mean repeat what has already been refuted.Last edited by foudroyant; 08-19-2014, 07:28 AM.

We know that the passage says God knows the mind of the Holy Spirit, because the one that God knows the mind of is the one doing the interceding.
Your refutation is wholly imaginary. You're trying to shoehorn the text into support for your assertions about an unrelated issue.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

See how easy it is? You don't have to invent stories about what the passage says, you don't have to lie about the meaning of the scripture. All you have to do is use a bit of nous to work out how it properly applies.
Now - how does this impact on whether it is permissible to pray to resurrected saints? It isn't possible to say that the verse prohibits calling on others to pray for you: people are instructed to call on the elders for prayer.1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

When I say no need to pray to her that means it is a sin to do so for it is attributing to her omniscience.
Omniscience....nope I wasn't lying or making that up. I cited plenty of sources that agree with me - and yes to be the Heart-Knower means to be omniscient.
Tell me when myriads of people can silently call on someone (besides God) and that person being called on knows every silent request.
Let me help you...never - for that wold require omniscience (See Paragraph #1 cf. Romans 8:26-27).

When people ask elders to pray for them, they are not attributing omniscience to the elders. Quite clearly omniscience isn't needed to hear and understand prayer, and neither is it needed for a prophet to know what is in a person's heart. Both conditions rely on God's willingness for those things to happen.

God alone has the power to know the unspoken words of the heart.
Mary and others do not.אָכֵ֕ן אַתָּ֖ה אֵ֣ל מִסְתַּתֵּ֑ר אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל מוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃

I'm RCC, and in my perspective, when I say the rosary, especially when contemplating the stations of the cross, I reflect on Mary's human suffering, her hopelessness and the strength of her son. While dieing on the cross, to the apostle John, Jesus committed the welfare of his mother (Jesus' mother) to him. Have a think upon that.
Frankly foudroyant, in your strident opinionation, I consider you the vomit of humanity...and very much a non-christian in any shape or form. (Heh! that's just my opinion of you given your behaviour here at TheologyWeb - you being (asumingly) an ignorant, obese juvenile trying to bully people into your own self denial of standard Christian belief (whether it be the various forms of formal Protestant belief, RCC, ROC, EOC, OOC, CoE, Lutheran etc)).Last edited by apostoli; 08-19-2014, 01:53 PM.
