Is it God, Jesus, Saints, somebody else? If you do pray to the Saints, do you think they have any power to act on your prayers? The reason I'm asking is because I currently go to a bible study, mainly because I have so many questions that I want answered. However, sometimes you can't come out to the people you know and ask a stupid question like this. Hopefully, the people in this chat forum will help me resolve some of the dumb questions that I have. I pray to God, in Jesus' name. There is no "dumb" question. But praying to saints is futile. I believe Catholics are the only ones who believe in this.

The bible calls the christians the saints. Thats us! Praying to the saints brings up a whole other topic,,,,the state of the dead. I think I may start a thread on that if there isn't one. Jesus gave us the example....I hope we all can agree to that. I put my trust in Him. Certainly not other Christians(saints), who are faulty like me, and who have no power to answer my prayers. That would be simply a waste of my time. May god bless all of our hearts, and teach us, throught the Holy spirit, the absolute truth on the matter. I pray to God! I'll talk to you all later.... I will be gone for a week. till then... God bless you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, I'm goofy.... Seriously, I suppose praying or just keeping an open coversation with Him happens even without thinking about it.... Mostly in the shower when I can have some alone time and my thoughts are the least distracted.... Although, sometimes I shave the same leg twice that way... I told ya I was goofy.
