The question you & every other Protestant ought to ask yourselves : who were these people that removed these books from my Bible & on what authority, besides the authority they bestowed upon themselves, did they have to edit the Bible that had remained in tact for over a millennia?, do I have the fullness of the faith?”
It's something all believers should occasionally ask themselves. I've been involved in discussion in a different thread about catholics praying to saints and Mary. I have concerns about them praying to created beings. I don't even know how or why they think Mary and angels can hear them, as they are neither omniscient or omnipresent. So even if a person prays aloud to either of them, how do they hear it? I know praying to created beings is a big, big thing in the catholic faith. But it causes me to question their very salvation. That is between them and God though, and I am not saying they are not saved, but it does make me ponder.
Praying to Saints & the Mother of God is like having someone you personally know, pray for you. The holier the person, the stronger the prayer.
There are many reason why Protestants don’t have Saints… but I’ll give you something to ponder. Read up on Saint Stephan, the first martyr of the Catholic Church. He was killed by Jews, including Saint Paul.
Saint Simon of Trent, Saint William of Norwich, Holy Child of Lagardia.
Please, read on the lives of those particular Saints & it will enlighten you as to why the New World Order doesn’t want Christians to know their history. To understand the battle we are in & to understand how long this battle between good & evil has been going on.
Please, look up the lives of those child Saints, it Weill enlighten you, trust me on this Brother.
Saints are believers, according to the New Testament. Not specially designated persons, as in the catholic church. Just simple believers.
And there is a huge difference between someone asking a friend to pray for them and someone praying TO Mary or an angel or catholic saint. Again, these beings are created beings and are not omniscient or omnipresent. So how do they even hear the prayers? If the prayers are silent, they can't get inside your head to hear them. And even if the prayers are prayed aloud, unless they are hanging out with you at home or work, they are not omnipresent, so they won't hear them.
Bottom line is, Jesus Himself taught the apostles how to pray and He said nothing about it being acceptable to pray to created beings.

Did you even read up on those three saints I told you to read up on?
