The reason I don’t address activities about the intermediate state is because there are not a lot of details given to it.

Part of the issue is why should we be working on something now? Because this life is a limited opportunity to make choices to follow Christ in a world that is opposed to Him.

Perhaps your doctor is uninformed and hasn’t read information on the possible abortifacient aspect of the pill.

Christ intercedes for us for the same reason we intercede for each other—we need help, we need God's power to resist temptation and live holy lives.

Satan is so delusional that, in his blinding hatred opposing God, he willingly fulfills God’s decree as it is plainly revealed and known by him.

We don’t pray to Mary and the various saints because they are not God, and they have no power to answer prayer.

In some passages the bride is the Church.
