Deep dives
Intercession of the Saints
The discussion of Jesus' eternal priesthood emphasizes the role of the intercession of saints in heaven. Critics argue that since Jesus is our sole intercessor, the idea of saintly intercession should be dismissed. However, examples from Revelation, such as the 24 elders and angels presenting the prayers of the saints before God, illustrate that multiple intercessors can coexist in heaven without overshadowing Christ's unique role. Therefore, the belief in the saints' intercessory power aligns with the understanding of them sharing in Christ's mediatory work.
