The book of the Apocalypse describes "dead" saints standing before the very throne of God. The book of Hebrews describes a cloud of witnesses comprised of heros^([sic]) of the faith that had been martyred or righteous in their earthly life. Then Moses and Elijah came down in person to speak with our Lord. Any single one of these passages proves the ridicularity of objection c. Together, they obliterate it for anyone who truly holds Scripture to be the word of God.
