My mother had only a high school education, and thus of course, not seen as a scriptural scholar. She was filled with the Holy Spirit tho. One day she was talking to a Protestant Evangelical minister who was berating her and the Catholic Church for praying to saints. He used it as proof that we are not Christians. My Mum came back on him with the exact same argument you have given. It silenced him. I thank you for this reflection. We Catholics must use it more!!!
