PRAYERS TO MARY- SOUL SLEEP
MARY IS THE MIDDLE BLOCKER IN THE DIRECT COMMUNICATION BETWEEN GOD AND MEN
1, Has Mary become Omni-present since she died?
Is Mary living everywhere in the world?
I understand there are about 2 billion Catholics, including 1.4 billion Roman Catholics, and 0.6 Billion other Catholics such as Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, Ukraine Orthodox, Coptic, etc.
From all over the world, Catholics pray to Mary and I wonder how Mary can hear all the prayers from so many people. If the Catholics pray to Mary, from millions of places such as Amsterdam, Asuncion, Athens, Bangkok, Buenos Aires, Bogota, Berlin, Barcelona, Cologne, Cape town, Duesseldorf, Edinburgh, Florence, Geneve, Hong Kong, Jerusalem, Krakow, London, Manila, Moscow, Paris, Seoul, Tokyo, Toronto, Vancouver, Warsaw, and more than millions of places, can Mary hear them all?
2.Can Mary understand all the languages of the world? When did she learn the language?
Especially when did Mary learn English?
3. Could Mary become Omni-scient understanding all the languages, words, medical issues, problems of the world?
4. When did Mary become so much powerful? Right after her death? Or after 431AD? Or after 1854 when Pope Pius 9 declared the Immaculate Conception?
If Mary became omni-present and omniscient, right after her death, why did none of the apostles report about it even though they outlived Mary?
5. How many millions of prayers can Mary hear at the same time? Because most of the people cannot hear the words of 3 people or more at the same time
6. Can the prayers thru Mary be as accurate as the direct prayers from the Believers to God in person, because Mary can omit or forget some contents of the prayers?
7. How can Mary deliver the prayers of millions of people around the world to God while she hear the prayers from millions of people simultaneously? Does Mary pour out millions of prayers to God at once? Or does Mary deliver the prayers of millions of people to God one by one in queue? If Mary dump out the prayers of millions of people to God, God may not understand them as God is not the God of Chaos (1 Cor 14:33). So, does Mary deliver the prayers one by one? Or millions of prayers all at the same time?
8. What’s the problem if you pray to God directly? Because Jesus taught us to pray to God, not to Mary as we read Mt 6:6?
9. Since when has God authorized Mary to become an intercessor? Because Holy Spirit is the intercessor (Romans 8:26). Why didn’t Paul mention that God has ordained Mary as the intercessor for the Believers even though he outlived Mary?
10. Why didn’t God notify His people that He appointed Mary as the mediator as He notified Jesus is the Mediator between God and men (1 Tim 2:5) and the intercessor is Holy Spirit?
11. If Mary deliver the prayers one by one, one per minute, after receiving the prayers from 100 million Catholics, then she needs 100 million minutes to inform God about them, 100 million minutes mean 190 years. Have you ever checked with Mary about the receipt of your prayers and the communication between God and Mary?
12. Do you get the answers from Mary after your prayers? Then would you please ask her the above questions? If the answers are reasonable and right with a view to the teachings of the Bible, all Christians must follow Catholics. So, please ask Mary what are the answers to the above questions. First of all ask Mary when she learned English
The following Bible verses are supporting the argument that the Souls are sleeping after the death of the body, until the resurrection of Judgment or the resurrection of the Life ( John 5:28-29). Mary is sleeping until her resurrection. Lord Jesus Christ will wake her up.

New Testament
Mark 5:39
And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleeps. ( Alive =Sleep here)
John 5
28 Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the graves will hear His voice
29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
Acts 2:
34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
Acts 13:36
36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
1 Cor 15:18
18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.
1 Corinthians 15:52-55
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
Eph 5:14
Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
1 Thess 4:14
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1 Thessalonians 5:10
10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
Rev 6:11
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow-servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
Rev 14:13
13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
OLD TESTAMANT
Leviticus 19:31
Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.
Leviticus 20:6
I will set my face against anyone who turns to mediums and spiritists to prostitute themselves by following them, and I will cut them off from their people.
Deuteronomy 18:10-12
Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to The Lord; because of these same detestable practices The Lord your God will drive out those nations before you.
1 Samuel 28
This chapter recounts the story of King Saul consulting the Witch of Endor to summon the prophet Samuel’s spirit. This act is portrayed negatively and leads to Saul’s downfall.
These passages show that seeking to speak to the dead is Forbidden and detestable to The Lord. Instead, God, in Scripture instructs us to seek Guidance and wisdom from God DIRECTLY!!!
Psalm 6:5
For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?
Psalm 30:9
9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
Ps 88:10
Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall the dead arise and praise thee? Selah.
Ps 115:17
The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.
PSalm 143:3,4
3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead. 4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.
PSalm 146
2 While I live will I praise the Lord: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.
Ecclesiastes 9:5
For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
Isaiah 8:19
And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
Isaiah 38
18 For Sheol cannot thank You,
Death cannot praise You;
Those who go down to the pit cannot hope for Your faithfulness.
19 It is the living who give thanks to You, as I do today;
A father tells his sons about Your faithfulness.
Daniel 12: And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
Luke 16:19-31 – Rich man and Lazarus
This is a parable telling the punishment of unbelievers and the salvation of the saved man.
The brothers of the rich man are still alive on the Earth with Law and Gospel ( Moses and Prophets). But the rich man is already suffering the pain in the Hades. Rich man had eyes, tongues, mouth, ears, feeling the pains. Jesus condensed the story in order to teach us the lesson that there will be the judgment and punishment after death. Rich man had no name while Lazarus has the name as it is recorded on the book of Life ( Rev 20:12-15)
