The host (unknown) told the child on live radio that he could pray "TO" and "FOR" his friend who died that was in heaven. From whence come such teachings? Is it possible? Is it true? or Is it pure heresy and the host of the program should be ashamed of himself for misleading a child with false hope? CM
