You answered your own question. Necromancy involves the dead. Jesus said that those who follow Him "WILL NEVER DIE". Therefore the saints are not dead, unless Jesus was a liar. They are alive and well, in God's presence. What better place could they be to intercede for us??

not authentic particular how they dealt with that one, yet Saints are not fairly even being utilized through Catholics a lot anymore i presumed. The Virgin Mary is a diverse tale. Being the mummy of Christ and all. besides the indisputable fact that many believe she develop into not particular adequate to be prayed to, for, etc. As she develop into only a vessel of God so Jesus might want to be born. i imagine she gave beginning to the Lord and advantages to be venerated yet not prayed to love she develop into the only which develop into murdered and then resurrected. And necromancy is making an attempt to summon the spirit of someone or perhaps their body for the objective of gaining the perception of a God. even as human beings pray they don't seem to be attempting to summon them, they are telling their sins, soliciting for help or forgiveness, etc. it really is a organic act of affection, prayer. Necromancy is on the polar opposite side of prayer. it really is darkish magic some say and develop into forbidden for the time of time.

Good point. It seems pretty clear.
Praying to Jesus however is not necromancy because Jesus came back to life from the dead.

If the saints in heaven are part of the Body as well as the saints on earth,
and we are all alive in Christ, and each part of the Body is as important as the other,
and we are all commanded to pray constantly and fervantly for one another,
why would we not ask for their prayers the same as we ask the intercession of our earthly brothers and sisters?
It's nice to have friends in high places!

LOL no The way I see it is this....Regardless of what "religion" you are, it is just a "title"....God looks at a person's HEART....NOT the title of your religion where you learned about FAITH.....God understands the different religions even if we don't.....what they are taught by man's "teachers" in each religion is seen by God, and He filters out the "ways" we practice our Faith by looking at the heart and the actual prayer given...He honors prayers according to each individual person in the way they are given

Catholics will tell you it is acceptable to pray to the saints or to Mary.
This is not correct.
Jesus tells us to pray to GOD.
When you pray, you pray to God, in the name of Jesus, and you pray for God's will to be done above all else.
