Evangelicals worship the old testament demiurge through several layers of mistranslations. It's why they constantly get up to blasphemous shit like snake-handling and prosperity gospel, their religion is propagated by low IQ barely literates to the illiterate.

We don't give sacrifices to the statues, nor do we pray to stone or wood - we pray to the saint.

Saints aren't dead if Heaven is real would be the point I'm making. As in the Transfiguration when Moses and Elijah were speaking with Christ, so too in Revelation 5:

6 And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders, I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth; 7 and he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne. 8 And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints; 9 and they sang a new song, saying,

"Worthy art thou to take the scroll and to open its seals,

for thou wast slain and by thy blood didst ransom men for God

from every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

10 and hast made them a kingdom and priests to our God,

and they shall reign on earth."

"God, in his promises to hear our prayers, is desirous to bestow Himself upon us; if you find anything better than Him, ask it; but if you ask anything beneath Him, you put an affront upon Him, and hurt yourself by preferring to Him a creature which He framed: Pray in the spirit and sentiment of love, in which the royal prophet said to Him, 'Thou, O Lord, are my portion.' Let others choose to themselves portions among creatures, for my part, You are my portion, You alone I have chosen for my whole inheritance." -- St. Augustine of Canterbury
