If Protestants won't ask dead saints to intercede because there is no mediator but Jesus then why do they ask living Christians to pray for them?
Romans 15:30-32. Paul specifically asked to be prayed for. He requested prayers from the believers for himself.

Asking Christians brothers and sisters to pray for you is Biblical - as seen above. The Bible says that there is only one mediator between God and man and that is Jesus Christ (1 Tim 2:5) and that He is also our advocate (1 John 2:1). Asking other Christians to pray for you does not and cannot make them a mediator. as @Narnian says "Protestants do not recognize any biblical example or instruction to pray to dead people."
