Now this…Brother, I tell you; sometimes we need to be skinned down and rubbed a little bit to see where we’re standing. Don’t you think so? Make right, right. Any person…If those saints…Now, I’m not condemning Catholic saints. But look. The reason that the witch of Endor could call the spirit of Samuel, because Samuel couldn’t go into the Presence of God; he was in paradise; for the blood of bulls and goats would not take away sin. But since Jesus died, He divorced sin, and taken away sin, and the believer now goes into the Presence of God. And he can’t come back, Jesus said in Luke when He was talking about the rich man. He can’t return. So if you’re interceding with any kind of a spirit of someone that’s gone on, outside of God, Christ, the only Mediator between God and men, then you’re in spiritualism called religion. Now, where is spiritualism at? So be careful what you say about the Spirit of God. See? Communing with saints is spiritualism.
