I'm not the first to bring up that idea. The objections raised by protestants about Catholics asking for intercession from those in heaven must be rooted into Christ having 2 bodies which is a weird concept.
Those in heaven and those on earth are part of the same body. What happens to 1 member, affects the whole body. Those in heaven and those on earth, through Baptism are bound into 1 spiritual family. Praise Jesus!
Might I suggest you read and contemplate 1Cor Chapter 12....the entire Chapter.
Here is a snippet
12:25 That there might be no schism in the body: but the members might be mutually careful one for another.
12:26 And if one member suffer any thing, all the members suffer with it: or if one member glory, all the members rejoice with it.
You will discover Catholics follow the Bible while protestants reject what scripture plainly says.

The Roman Catholic Church claim that Peter was the 'rock' which the church was to be built on and the pope is his successor and there are NO Scriptures which say that.
The Roman Catholic Church SELLS THE GOSPEL through Indulgences.
"The Church also commends almsgiving, indulgences and works of penance undertaken on behalf of the dead ... An indulgence is partial or plenary according as it removes either part or all of the temporal punishment due to sin. Indulgences may be applied to the living or the dead." (Catholic Catechism)
The Roman Catholic Church claim that Mary was sinless.
"The church has become ever more aware that Mary "full of grace" through God was redeemed from the moment of her conception. This is what the dogma of the Immaculate Conception confesses ..... Mary was.... from the first moment of her conception ...... preserved immune from all stain of original sin." (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 491)
The Roman Catholic Church claim that salvation is only possible through herself.
"There is no salvation outside the church (Roman Catholic Church)." (Pope John Paul II, Radio Message for Francisan Vigil at St Peter's and Assisi, October 3, 1981)
