I'm not Orthodox but I feel connected to Orthodoxy for some reason. Even so, intercession of saints is something I REALLY struggle with, Biblically. I "get" it, I understand the doctrine and concept of this within Orthodoxy but it scares me to accept it because if we got that wrong... Well, we all know how seriously God takes idolatry, and that is why it worries me: if He happens to see it as such, what will that do to my relationship with Him?
