Angela, you might find it instructive to think about the fellowship sacrifice of Lev 3,
where the offerer took some of the sacrifice home to eat,
while the priest ate a portion of it up at the Temple,
the offerer being in a fellowship meal with the priest who offered it,
and where they both took within themselves, participated in, the benefits of the sacrifice;
i.e. forgiveness of sin and reconciliation with God.
Jesus said that the bread and wine were the NT sacrificial meal
on his sacrificed body and blood, where we take within ourselves, partake in, the benefits of his sacrifice,
just as they partook of the benefits of the sacrifice in the OT.

Necromancy is condemned in the Bible. When we say not to pray to the dead we are referring to those people whose bodies are dead and whose souls and spirits have either went to be with the Lord in paradise and or those who went to hades. In fact, do you remember the rich man in torments?
The rich man could not communicate with the living. In fact nowhere is praying to those who have died physically ever encouraged. It is always condemned.

Do Catholics actually think they have a relationship with Jesus Christ? Are they concerned every day at trying to win souls for the Catholic church? I never run into a Catholic who was passionate about Jesus. Most people who claim they are Catholic make it appear it is more about the church than Jesus Christ. It is not really about a relationship with Christ but it is a membership club where they do ritual like things that are super mysterious.

Don't really care if I get a web of lies correct or not. It's still a lie and false. My focus is the Bible and not false religions and what they teach. For learning about false religions is a full time job. My defense and offense is God and His Word.
Anyways, it is unbiblical to pray for the dead because it appointed unto men once to die, but after that, comes the Judgment.

Because salvation did not come from the seed of man (male) but from the woman, as was prophecied to Eve.
As to Maccabees, it is not against the NT (New Testament meaning the New Covenant not the Books of the New Testament) to pray for the dead. Realize that prayer for the dead is for those in purgatory, no man who has been sent to Hell will ever see the Kingdom of God.
