No, Catholics believe there is only One Mediator for the Redemption of mankind, Jesus Christ, by His work on the Cross. We don’t add to scripture by then prohibiting prayer mediation of the saints to God for others, that’s erroneous human tradition, not scripture.

It isn’t complicated you are right. Those saints in heaven are the righteous made perfect, and we also know from scripture that the prayers of the righteous are powerful, that’s why we ask them to pray for us. God is the God of the living not the dead they are not deceased. What? When a Baptist...

In context, which you didn’t highlight. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all It was entirely in context of Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross as ransom for all mankind. That is the context of the One...

You are deceived, kindly remove yourself from this thread.

This thread is about Mary’s devotion to Jesus, I don’t want it to be befouled by blasphemy of Christ.

Away with your blasphemy. Christ did not have a sinful nature. Christ had human nature not a sinful nature. You need to repent of this, seriously.

I would love you guys on my legal team if I was to get into trouble with the law, but in this situation you can’t change facts of the case. Intercessors are mediators and mediators are intercessors. Christs one mediation and our mediation are different, but we are mediators.

I’m amazed at the lengths people will go to avoid the obvious. μεσίτης Mediator mesités 1.a go-between 2. (simply) a spokesman 3. (by implication) a reconciler (Intercessor ) Even strongs Greek definition uses Intercessor as a description of mediator.

What does middle mean, to be between. What does between mean, to be in the middle. You guys are incredible. And you don’t want anyone to point out the absurd legalist distinctions that exist only in your heads. Yes Christ is the only one mediator for the redemption of mankind. But Christ is...

That’s your quibblings, mediator means to be in the middle, which is intercession. Intercessor means to be “ between “. “go-between, intermediary, intermediator, mediator.” There is no fine acute legal distinction, both words mean the same thing and are used interchangeably to describe each...

Mediators are middle men, intercessor, when you pray for others to God. “formed from the stem of mediare ("to be in the middle") and the root medius ("middle").” That’s why mediator and Intercessor are the same thing. When you pray for others, you are in the middle between them and God, you...

Give US this day our daily bread, forgive US our trespasses, lead US not into temptation. You are asking the Father on behalf of others and yourself in the Lord’s Prayer. This is mediation, a mediation the Lord enjoined on us to practice. This does not detract from Christ’s unique singular...

Serious error here mate. Christ did not have a sinful nature, this is blasphemy. Jesus flesh was immaculate and took on the sins of the world, sinful nature can not redeem sinful nature. Jesus took on human nature not sinful nature, He is God and God does not have a sinful nature. I’m...

Mediator- councillor, broker, ambassador, Intercessor. Intercessor and mediator are the same thing. What we are talking about is Christ’s unique mediation on the Cross for all mankind and our subordinate mediation in prayer, otherwise we could not address The Father directly in the Lord’s...

I gave you a direct scriptural reference of “the living” , they are “ alive”, which is the entire point I am making and you are directly disputing the scripture.

“But in the account of the burning bush, even Moses showed that the dead rise, for he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’[b] 38 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.” Luke 20: 37-38

In the line of David, the mother of the King was Queen, thus it follows we hold Mary as our Queen because Christ is King. Joseph we honour as well, he isn’t side lined, all the saints are honoured.

Those in heaven are the living, I don’t think you are getting that. Conjuring the dead is necromancy, if you read scriptural accounts of it you will see that it is channeling the dead to engage in two way conversation to obtain information. Asking the saints in heaven to pray for you...

That’s right, we don’t summon or channel the dead to receive information. We ask the living saints to pray for us.
