I say another vain and repetitious hogwash from an anti-Catholic. As Pope JP II said: ‘the Rosary beats to rhythm of the human life’; it is all-encompassing. Anyway, you will never really fathom its mystery of the Rosary if you do not contemplate and receive the Mother of the heart [Christ] of it---Mary.
“Mary as the co-redemtrix? Meaning that not only Jesus redeemed us from sin...that Mary did as well?"
Emphasis on ‘co’, meaning, Mary is the co-operator of Christ Who alone is the Redeemer. She is co-redemptrix for she cooperated with Him in the sense that: she gave birth to Him; ‘she dispenses the graces of the Redemption already accomplished by Christ’; and she shared in His Redemptive Sacrifice at the Cross by joining her ‘sinless suffering’ to that of His.
As it has been emphasized beforehand, I pray to Mary because of her mediating role between God and His people. I just have to simply recall the fact of her Messianic maternity and/or the miracles of Jesus at the Wedding of Cana brought about by her powerful intercession, among other things.
@832existentialiste One BIBLE verse, 1 Timothy 2:5 LOUD AND CLEAR!!!!! "For there is one God, and ONE MEDIATOR also between God and men, the man
CHRIST JESUS".........NOT MARY...NOT MARY....NOT MARY....NOT MARY!!!!!!..There is no interpretation issue here!! PLEASE WAKE UP TO THE LIES AND DECEIT THAT ARE TAKING OVER YOUR MINDS AND HEARTS!!! PLEASE STOP BEING SO DEFENSIVE AND THINK.........HEY, MAYBE THESE PEOPLE ARE REALLY WHOLE HEARTED AND ARE REALLY TRYING TO HELP US. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
Absolutely 'loud and clear' with all these LOUD letters and exclamation points!
You are not sincere. Firstly, you act like a clown and secondly and most importantly, you love to bear false against us. Again, we are being ‘defensive’ because you are being offensive with all your ‘lies and deceit’ against the ‘The Church Authentic'.
“only mediator between us and God is Jesus Christ ONLY?"
Disgraced, remember how God has graced us by sending His Son through a woman. Through this woman, God became with us in the person of His Son Christ Jesus. Thus, Christ’s Sole Mediation is never denied but all the more fortified by the mediation of this woman which is maternal in nature, conditioned on her Son Christ Jesus.
@832existentialiste remember....we are all instruments for God to use. Mary was an instrument that God used to bring His son to us. That is it. She is not to be worshipped and put on any level above what she is....a sinful human like us ALL. For we ALL fall short of the glory of God.....even Mary. This is the TRUTH.....embrace it.....and grow....God Bless....
Do you ever get tired of bearing false witness? To set the record straight, we are not idolaters and we do not worship Mary EVER-VIRGIN. Whoa! AEIPARTHENOS. Ring a bell? LOL! Look clown, this is getting circuitous and redundant. Done talking w/ you so go preach your easy gospel consisting mainly of ignorance and hatred elsewhere. Seriously, this sort of thing i.e. arguing w/ rabid proties like you, does not feed me; so sorry!
“And did you also know that according to the Bible SAINTS are believers"
Precisely. To be a saint, you have to be a believer in the first place. But believing is not enough. You have to be living what you believe in---by being a radical follower of Christ and by doing your best to be a fitting temple of His Spirit.
@832existentialiste EXACTLY !!!! You are coming along !!! That is why TRUE believers are saints!! Because we are to live in the likeness of Christ!! So why do you isolate Saints from regular "catholic believers"?? Shouldn't all believers be living what you believe in and be radical followers of Christ so that you're best fit to be the Temple of His Spirit?? Of course!!!! So why isolate them and make a statue of them and bow down to it?? If that's the case make a statue of me!! Learn and grow
Do not misconstrue what I said. Saints are made out of saints. Plus, emphasis on the word RADICAL in all of its senses---(relating to root/origin and/or extreme-excellence).

PLEASE open your eyes to the TRUTH of the BIBLE and pull yourself from all this heresy. God Bless you......
So you don't hail mary? Do you hail me? I have the holy spirit inside me! Read your Bible on your own seprate from the Catholic books which violate the last part of revalation adding to adds punishment! Anyway in dusting my feet and moving on, I was raised Catholic and I read independently and left the church, you've answered select questions but not all I hope you make it to the place I'm going cuz if not my grandpa won't, he had a holy water dispenser in his home, attended mass daily,
@4everjesusrules Show me where it says in the Bible that you need to be any specific religion to go to Heaven. Remember, all religions are faulty because it was created by man. Do you know all the requirements that the catholic church demands of you before you can go into Heaven? There is over 7 different requirements you have to fulfill before you can go into heaven!! That's totally crazy!! The Bible says call on the Lord Jesus Christ to be your Lord and personal Savior and you shall be saved.
@jaytami52504 Prove what you say,because I know yo are referring to the 7 sacraments, and as for religion Yes it is shown what faith to be in,as islam is not even a religion
@jaytami52504 I have the needed knowledege, yet you run empty,You also fail to research reality, for The Catholic Church was built by Jesus and given internal control to St.Peter, hence St.Peter was the very first Pope and even the next Pope after he Was mentioned in the Bible which Was Linus..Why not prove to me yourself all you claim?
“Praying to mary shows a lack of faith in Christ."
At the Redemptive sacrifice of the Cross, Christ has given us Mary as our Mother. Mary, who lovingly and expeditiously bestows graces and extends assistance to those who call on her in their needs---both corporal and spiritual. Never forget as well that the Holy Spirit operates in Mary, she who is God's True Temple. Thus, her actions are always dependent on Christ and redound for the sole benefit of Him.
“By grace you have been saved…for it is a gift of God”, Eph. 2.8. Every Catholic knows this.
And every Catholic knows as well that through good works we can prove our good will---the motivation towards reaching the pinnacles of sanctity, and our love to God,
“…so that you will not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” (Heb. 6.12). Needless to say, God is the Final Arbiter.
Catholics do exactly just that, reserving the highest homage for God alone. However, remember that Mary is above the saints in that she is also the Mother of God on account of her Messianic Maternity and by virtue of her unique and special privilege; we accord her reverence that is very special.
@832existentialiste You worship Mary as well. Did you know that the catholic church refers to Mary as the co-redemtrix? Meaning that not only Jesus redeemed us from sin...that Mary did as well? That is heresy on the highest level. Did you also know that they also call her sinless? The BIBLE SAYS: "Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins(ecclesiastes 7:20) / "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). This is clear English. God bless..
“Thou shall not pray in vain reppition, look at the rosery."
Such vapid statement can only come from one who is utterly and objectionably ignorant or from one who used to pray Rosary but in an incorrect manner. The Rosary is not just a mechanical litany of formulas as it also involves meditation, meditation which engages both thought and emotions.
@832existentialiste Remember that praying to God is talking to God. Why do you need to say the Hail Mary 10 times? Don't you think that God heard you the first time? This is vain repetitious prayer. The rosary enhances your memory skills. Religions aside.....the Catholic church does not follow the Bible like they should. The Bible is the only way we should live as Christians. If anybody/Church adds to the BIBLE....steer clear of that teaching...
Fruits? In the last presidential elections, the pope came out strongly against the pro choice candidate, you believe the pope represents Christ on earth? over sixty percent of you're church voted against the popes will! Against Christ's will in your belief! What fruits? The church is suppposed to be the body of Christ, the bride, but doesn't listen?
You are criticizing the members of the Church who are working out their own salvation in one degree of holiness or another. Everyone of us is a sinner, except Mary, Holy Mary.
The teachings of the Church have not changed since Jesus gave us the deposit of faith, therefor the Church is the spotless Bride of Christ. The Holy Spirit keeps the Church free from error in her teaching on faith and morals.
@TheChurchAuthentic The Roman Catholic Church contends that its origin is the death,resurrection,and ascension of Jesus Christ in approximatelyA.D.30.The Catholic Church proclaims itself to be the church that Jesus Christ died for,the church that was established and built by the apostles.Is that the true origin of the Catholic Church?On the contrary.Even a cursory reading of the New Testament will reveal that the Catholic Church does not have its origin in the teachings of Jesus or His apostles.
Calling her blessed is different than calling her holy, or worthy of worship. Worship only God. Thou shall not pray in vain reppition, look at the rosery. Prior to his death on the cross a follower called Christ holy, he responded by correcting the man strongly and saying only the father in heaven is holy, what do you call the pope? Biblical salvation is by faith alone,not works so no one can boast, what's the purpose of all the Catholic rituals? You can tell a tree by its fruits?
Mary is holy. She is the first one to receive Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Peter calls all the saints "holy", "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation" (1 Peter 2:9). No Catholic is permitted to worship Mary. We believe we are saved by grace through faith which is shown by obedience and good works.
@TheChurchAuthentic You talk about "faith". You know the Bible says this about faith:
"So faith comes by hearing, hearing the word of God." (Romans 10:17) You want more faith.....read and live the living breathing truth of the Bible.......
“Calling her blessed is different than calling her holy”
Yes, ‘blessed’ is the preferred Biblical descript as it highlights Mary’s attributes but recall 1 Cor 3.16-17, “…you are God’s temple and God’s Spirit dwells in you...God’s temple is holy.” Thus, Christians are also ‘holy’, being ‘God’s temple’, what more then of Mary who is ‘Immaculate’, sanctified by the Holy Spirit and adorned w/ ‘fullness of grace’, Lk 1.28? Mary’s holiness is unique.
@832existentialiste remember the Bible teaches ALL GLORY TO GOD !!!! ALL !!! Not some and then some to Mary.......ALL GLORY TO GOD !!! GOD created Mary....GOD has no Creator....therefore how can God have a mother? Mary is not the Mother of God. That's heresy. Please....open your eyes to the truth and stop being so defensive....we pray for followers of the catholic faith all the time.....God Bless.....
“The Bible is the only way we should live as Christians...”
If you can show to me the specific Scripture passage which says so, you've found yourself another Sola Scriptura advocate.
“Please....open your eyes to the truth and stop being so defensive....we pray for followers of the catholic faith.”
You speak of truth yet you speak tripe. This is why I am defensive, why we are defensive. Thank You for your prayers. You and yours are in ours as well.
Praying to mary shows a lack of faith in Christ. Jesus spoke against honoring the traditions of men over the word of God. The Catholic church is nothing more than modern day Pharisees!
Mary is worshipped in the Catholic prayer, the Bible says to only worship God, Catholics call mary a divine intersessor, a go between from go to us? Why do I need her if the Holy Ghost is my go between and he dwells within me?
Catholics worship the Holy Trinity alone. The holy Church commands us to pray for the intercession of the Virgin Mary "now and at the hour of our death". I understand that when a soul is passing into eternity, the devil comes with great wrath, knowing that his time is short to capture that soul. I want the Holy Mother of God to defend me in that hour and obtain mercy for me as a good mother would. I'm counting on her.
I hope every Christian would know that one can’t be truly called a beloved disciple of Jesus unless they accept Mary as their mother. They must realize and understand well the mystery of Incarnation. When Mary’s motherhood represented faith and acted as the fountain of faith for the disciples in their despondency and desperateness, it did not stop there; it continued, and it still continues today for the whole Christian community.
GRACE be with you always Scott, this is most wonderful!♥
Thanks, Anne. Mary will always be full of grace! And the Lord will always be with her. When she dispenses his graces to her children, the Lord is with those graces, so she is the Mediatrix of all graces.
How sad that some grasp at the keys given to St. Peter, yet refuse the Mother given to St. John.
Consider another miraculous comparison: When the first passover occured, God told Moses to have the people gather a spotless Lamb (pre-figures Christ) sacrifice it, sprinkle it's blood (there is no salvation without the shedding of blood) upon the doorposts (our hearts) to save them from the "angel of death" (the devil) Whereupon they were told by God to EAT the sacrificed Lamb! Jesus fulfills in completion the old covenant. I believe, I adore, I hope & I love you. Forgive those who do not, Lord
its not true ...why did god not manifest the arc himself instead of leaving directions to build it - he made man so the arc would have been a doddle..wake up and stop believing the morons who made it up.

This is a wonderful video that everyone who is unaware of this Truth needs to see. Thank you for making it available to the world!

I hope every Christian would know that one can’t be truly called a beloved disciple of Jesus unless they accept Mary as their mother. They must realize and understand well the mystery of Incarnation. When Mary’s motherhood represented faith and acted as the fountain of faith for the disciples in their despondency and desperateness, it did not stop there; it continued, and it still continues today for the whole Christian community.
GRACE be with you always Scott, this is most wonderful!♥

Thanks, Anne. Mary will always be full of grace! And the Lord will always be with her. When she dispenses his graces to her children, the Lord is with those graces, so she is the Mediatrix of all graces.
How sad that some grasp at the keys given to St. Peter, yet refuse the Mother given to St. John.

That is absolutely profoundly beautiful.

Consider another miraculous comparison: When the first passover occured, God told Moses to have the people gather a spotless Lamb (pre-figures Christ) sacrifice it, sprinkle it's blood (there is no salvation without the shedding of blood) upon the doorposts (our hearts) to save them from the "angel of death" (the devil) Whereupon they were told by God to EAT the sacrificed Lamb! Jesus fulfills in completion the old covenant. I believe, I adore, I hope & I love you. Forgive those who do not, Lord

its not true ...why did god not manifest the arc himself instead of leaving directions to build it - he made man so the arc would have been a doddle..wake up and stop believing the morons who made it up.

The Bible says that God dwells within those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.

@TheChurchAuthentic God gives us a message are we to be slack in publishing what He has told us? Also, the mark of the beast will soon be in place.

Well, I feel that I personally found the Ark of the Covenant when I fell in love with our Lady.
The golden box was only a shadow of the Real Ark--Mary, who will be with us forever.
