How Do You Feel Towards Christian Saints?

in #christianity • 7 years ago (edited)

I'm curious, there appears to be a very strong Christian community here on Steemit, so it seems like a good place to ask how do different denominations feel about Christian Saints?

I was raised Lutheran and don't recall ever hearing about the Saints as I was growing up. In adulthood I've found that, other than Catholicism, there are many denominations that pray to or recognize Christian Saints. This is an open inquiry for the Steemit community.

What are your feelings or experiences with Christian Saints and if your comfortable sharing, what is your religion / spiritual path?

    Any believer in Christ is a saint. We shouldn't pray to saints. That violates the first commandment. Not only that, they can't hear you nor help you. Pray to God only.
