@NewLife1996 No one is saying otherwise. Jesus is the Mediator between the Father and us for our salvation. Mary's mediation is contained in and with His mediation, it is secondary, and is realized through her intercession (her prayers). No one says that Mary stands between the Father and us, or that she does anything apart from Jesus.
"We never give more honour to Jesus than when we honour his Mother, and we honour her simply and solely to honour him all the more perfectly. We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek - Jesus, her Son." Saint Louis Marie de Montfort
"It is the Church." And I said to him, "Why then is she an old woman?" "Because," said he, "she was created first of all. On this account is she old. And for her sake was the world made."
How come I never seen any Catholics venerating Joseph? The man who took Mary as his wife and raised God? Lets get some pics of Joseph's immaculate heart
Your lack of knowledge shows! In NO WAY do we say Mary is a GOD!!!! We honor Her the MOTHER of God! She has a dignity above all creatures save GOD HIMSELF! She is QUEEN of Heaven and earth. That in no way is saying She is GOD! That is a lie to say thats what Catholics do! She does not take away from God, She UNITES us to God!
"The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough to make cakes for the queen of heaven; and they pour out drink offerings to other gods in order to spite Me.
nothing you say can be validated with scripture
she is mother of God in the flesh, she is not mother of God period ;)
@stupaod No one believes that Mary existed before God or that she is the Mother of God's Spirit or of the Father.. the Church has always taught that she is the Mother of Christ, but since Christ's human and divine Natures can't be separated, we call her the Mother of God. This was defined in the early Church Councils.
@stupaod You can't put John the Baptist in the same aspect as the MOTHER OF GOD! Remember it was through MARY'S greeting to Elizabeth, that he leaped for joy in his mothers womb! No one can match Mary's humility! She consider Her self the least! And who are you to say how Christ made Her practice it!
@stupaod Catholic's do not worship Mary as God! That is a LIE! She is Queen of heaven and earth and we honor Her as Jesus Christ did himself! Christ fulfilled honor thy Father and Mother to the fullest! Mary leads all to Her Son Jesus Christ! She is our model in loving God, she did so PEFECTLY!
@stupaod my point is, worship is a matter of intent. If we do not intend to worship, then we do not worship. How is it worship to ask our Blessed Mother to pray for us and lead us to God? and yes we honour and love her, and that is because God honours and loves her. We can't honour her more than He does in Heaven, and we can't love her enough.
do you believe we NEED Mary to come to God? I don't...and I don't think shes involved in the process at all at this point....she is our spiritual mother in certain ways, so is the church and so is Zion(who is symbolized as a woman) so is the earth(but this ties into Zion) we are given no affirmation that Mary is spiritually among us in scripture but that doesn't mean we can't be influenced by our perception of the perfect mother/woman figure
"do you believe we NEED Mary to come to God? I don't...and I don't think shes involved in the process at all at this point"
You need to read the Gospel of Luke again. " And Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her."
Without Mary's YES - there would have not been the Incarnation of our Lord. So saying "she was not involved in the process" is absurd at best.
Thank you for making a video honoring Our Loving Mother! St. Louis de Montfort has a special place for me in my heart! His writtings are full of wisdom! May we all become one with Mary and follow Her example, and love Jesus with Her heart or rather Mary love Jesus with our heart!
"We are given reason to believe that, towards the end of time and perhaps sooner than we expect, God will raise up great men filled with the Holy Spirit and imbued with the spirit of Mary. Through them Mary, Queen most powerful, will work great wonders in the world, destroying sin and setting up the kingdom of Jesus her Son upon the ruins of the corrupt kingdom of the world."
@stupaod "Therefore do not let what is for you a good thing be spoken of as evil." You're talking about Jesus' mother. About her, Jesus said in His last words to you, stupaod, "Behold your mother."
@stupaod Show me where it says "Scripture Alone" in the bible, oh wait you can't find it because it's not there! As far as your Mother and brothers comment was not Mary the first to do God's will! We are called to be like his Mother! Christ is not disowning Her there. See you need an authority to submit to, who is in charge on proper reading and understand of Sacred Scripture which is the Catholic Church! Mary had great humility, who are to question how Christ made her practice it!
@stupaod She is one with Him! You can't seperate Jesus and Mary! It would be easier for you to seperate the light from the sun! SHE is our model in following Christ! She did so perfectly! He is the heart of her heart, the soul of his soul! They are ONE! Mary leads all to Christ, and we must follow him with HER HEART, for she loved and obyed HIM PEFECTLY! Only Mary found favor with God, Only through Her did He become man! All these mysteries take place THROUGH MARY! And Her ALONE!
I use writings outside the bible which I feel they are warranted, like the Epistle of the Apostles:
And there shall be many that believe on my name and yet follow after evil and spread vain doctrine. And men shall follow after them and their riches, and be subject unto their pride, and lust for drink, and bribery, and there shall be respect of persons among them.
@stupaod You seem to think Mary takes away from God, when in fact she UNITES us to God, Her Son Jesus! In honoring Mary we in turn honor Jesus Christ himself! You can't seperate Mary and Jesus, they go together. Notice in John's gospel he puts Mary at the beginning at Cana, and at the end at Calvary, to show Mary was there through it all with Jesus!
@stupaod "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God." Luke 1:35
"For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy [is] his name." Luke 1:48-49
"It is a sweet and pious belief that the infusion of Mary’s soul was effected without original sin; so that in the very infusion of her soul she was also purified from original sin and adorned with God’s gifts, receiving a pure soul infused by God; thus from the first moment she began to live she was free from all sin" (Sermon: "On the Day of the Conception of the Mother of God," 1527). Martin Luther
"veneration of Mary is inscribed in the very depths of the human heart" Martin Luther
@stupaod That may work pal....except that Martin Luther is the one that MADE UP SOLO SCRIPTURA. Martin Luther was the first Protestant...well actually the second. Satan was the first.
Is that Cannon that Luther chose infallible, or was the Cannon that the Catholic Church chose infallible?
Pure pride, but that is the logical end of Protestantism.
I have been born into a system that is beyond my control and must now sort things out in relation to scripture through the Spirit on my own primarily
I consider certain extra biblical writings to be equally important to the 66 books so your assumptions of what I consider to be valid and valuable are out of place and wrong
I suppose you would prefer it if the bible was still illegal and you were unable to see or own it?
But all they that have offended against my commandments and have taught other doctrine, (perverting) the Scripture and adding thereto, striving after their own glory, and that teach with other words them that believe on me in uprightness, ie they make them fall thereby, shall receive everlasting punishment.
So do you accept the Cannon Infallibly chosen by the Catholic Church in 397 AD and used by ALL Christians, all Church Fathers, and all Saints? Or do you believe that Martin Luther infallibly chose the cannon in the 1600s, translated FROM the Catholic cannon?
A man not sent by God, not prophesied, an ex Catholic priest, added a word as to make his cannon fit his interpretation, wanted to throw out the book of James, etc
It takes an infallible church, to make an infallible Bible.
