DOCTRINE "EVEN GOD HONOURS THE SAINTS"

According to Roman Catholic theology, a saint is a person who has lived an unusually holy life and who has gone straight to Heaven at his or her death.  Catholics say that as God made the saint what she or he is then to honour the saint is to honour him.  Is that not putting God in the background?  The Church says it only looks like he is put there but he is in fact central.

Don’t buy the Catholic lie that God might choose to answer a prayer through a saint to honour a saint on earth. This lie is told in Radio Replies (Vol 1, Question 1408) which contradicts itself, which it does very often, by saying that Pope Pius XI could have been wrong to attribute his recovery from sickness to St Therese of Lisieux (Question 1329, Radio Replies 3). First of all, the level of glory in Heaven is static (Question 792, Radio Replies Volume 3) so the honour is not real for it does the saint no good. Secondly, the Church says that prayers offered through people who were not saints at all but sincerely thought to be are still efficacious. Thirdly, God might only seem to have answered the prayer. It could have been something that was going to be sent anyway whether it was requested or not. What use is God honouring a saint on earth when nobody knows if it is honour or not?  God is only your cover story - it is about trying to honour the saint at his expense.

The following two sites show just what a liar Mother Teresa was and her callous heart is laid bare. They show the deceit of Pope John Paul II who is eager to make a saint of her.
