In addition to the intercessions of Christ, and, indeed, that of angels likewise, Roman Catholics believe in the efficacy of the intercession of the Virgin and the saints, who, however, as they state, do not directly intercede for men with God, but with the Savior, the sinless One, who alone has the ear of the King of the universe. (See INVOCATION OF SAINTS).
