Description
Is it a sin to talk to the dead, even if you know they're in Heaven? The Church's answer may surprise you.
When someone you love dies, your heart keeps reaching for them. But where is the line between prayer and something dangerous? In this video, we look at what the Bible and the Catholic Church actually teach about speaking to the dead, mediums, and seeking contact.
You will learn the difference between prayer and divination, what really happened when King Saul visited the medium of Endor, and what the Catechism says about spiritism. We also explore the communion of saints, whether you may ask a loved one to pray for you, and how to pray for the dead if you are unsure where they are. This is for Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox, and anyone searching for peace.
“We are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses.” Hebrews 12:1
Let us know in the comments: who are you praying for tonight? We would love to pray with you. If this helped, please like, subscribe, and share it with someone who is grieving. Then watch our next video on what Purgatory really is.
Our mission: to teach the Catholic faith with truth, clarity, and compassion.
