St. Maximilian describes the eternal relationship between the Father and the Son as the uncreated " immaculate conception "which we know as the third person of the Trinity , the Holy Spirit. Try to grasp the absolute uniqueness of this creature we call our Mother, thee created "immaculate conception " and spouse of the Holy Spirit. If you are to destined to such an extraordinary state of being would it not make rational sense that God would prepare her in the most divine way possible. If God i
I do not accept the "20 mysteries". There are 15. The "Luminous" mysteries are one of John Paul II's many changes to the religion which are not well founded. (I also reject the appelation "the Great" after his name. John Paul was not a great pope.)
Mary gave the Rosary to St. Dominic, I seem to recall studying. There were 15 mysteries then. St. Louis de Montfort (d. 1715) confimed that as well.
Nor any of the vast faithful whose loyalty to Christ's Vicar on earth is characterised by obedience and appreciative discernment of spirit. The Lord Himself comes to their assistance.

"And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ." Rev. 12:1-17 - LADY OF GUADALUPE
@francisxcc, thanks. Keep your beliefs. Jesus alone is worthy of praise. Not Mary or Joseph. There is only ONE MEDIATOR between God and men. 1 Tim 2:15, not 2 or 3.
I sure will. Live my life in the one immutable Truth.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
@francisxcc, do you think Elijah, Moses, David and the rest are in hell? No. But does that means they r not sinners? They were! Of course, not all who came before Jesus are heading towards hell but it doesn't mean they were saviours! They were sinners. So Mary was a sinner!
Now I've had a gutful of your blasphemies. The day you meet Jesus, repeat what you just wrote about His Mother to HIS face. Good luck. Your declarations of deluded, unfounded rubbish, on this channel, which is dedicated to Truth - as God's one true Church teaches it - end here.
There are 1000 other "churches" out there, each with its own set of doctrines. I have neither the time nor the desire to argue with all their heresies.
@francisxcc, I believe if I was not thinking, I couldn't be telling u about scriptures, don't worry Im used to insults from Catholics. Mary was thanking God. God is a saviour long ago before Mary was born. For Moses said he has become my salvation. What did you want God to do for Mary before she can say my God n Saviour? God has done great things for u Francis.
Huh? Since when was an exhortation to think an "insult"? Puh-leeze! I certainly wouldn't be insulted if you suggested I think about something.
Let me get this right. So now you're saying God was able to save someone even before Jesus was born (like "in anticipation" of His Son's redemptive sacrtifice?) Wow, you're starting to sound Catholic!
As for comparing what God has done for you or me with what He did in choosing one human as His own exalted Mother... again, puh-leeze!
@francisxcc, so you recon John 1:14, which addresses Jesus full of grace and truth shouldn't be there as it is only found once in the Bible according to u?
Not at all. John 1:14 says that Jesus was "pleres charitos", which literally means "full of grace." "Kecharitome" being a perfect passive participle, means Mary was possessed by grace even as Gabriel spoke to her. St Jerome, instead of using a long convoluted sentence to translate the word, simply used "gratia plena" in Latin - meaning "full of grace". He was absolutely right, because Gabriel did not use kecharitome just to describe Mary, by God's order her used it as her title!
@francisxcc, in Luke 1:28, check all the various versions of the Bible, they are said she is highly favoured! Read this:And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. Compare it to John 1 which says Jesus is full of grace n truth.
“Highly favored” is a mistranslation found in several English Bibles. The Douay Rheims, RSV-CE (1965-66) and the Confraternity NT (1941) read "full of grace". So which translation is more accurate? What did the original Bible say?
The original word in the Greek Bible to describe Gabriel’s greeting was kecharitomene. It is the only time the word appears in the Bible. St Jerome correctly translated it as gratia plena (full of grace) in Latin.
Although some Protestants insist on translating kecharitomene as “highly favored” (for some reason ignoring the perfect passive participle aspect of the word), the correct translation is backed by the authority of the Latin Fathers; the Codices of Alexandrinus and Ephrem; the Syriac and Arabic versions of the Bible; and even the writings of Protestants such as Wycliffe, Tyndale, and Beza.
The word "kecharitomene" is a perfect passive participle. A participle describes a subject. The perfect tense describes an action which has a completed aspect.
So, "kecharitomene", used by Gabriel as a title, means "you who have been graced" or "you who have been made graceful". The past participle means that although the gracing is a completed action, the effects are still ongoing: Mary is still filled with grace when Gabriel says this.
@francisxcc, yes, I mean original sin. We all have the original sin with us. Now, in the context of 'all' thing you said, I know, not just in Bible context but in English context that certain terms are different in actual context form. For example Job was righteous in Job 1 but does it mean he never sinned? Not at all.
So you accept that St Paul did NOT teach that "all" have sinned by commission or ommision - which is what you appeared to imply when you so promptly quoted him in relation to at least part of the question of the sinlessness or otherwise of the Mother of God? (The two parts of the question being original sin and actual sin. I'm also addressing the question of original sin in Mary in my other comments, as you can see.)
@francisxcc, when the Bible says be perfect just as your heavenly father is perfect( Mat 5:48), read that context well and you will see that Perfection in that context meant doing good to both evil n righteous people as God pours rain to both. Read it well man!
@francisxcc, bring in more questions, I will be happy to answer. Unborn babies, children, etc carry the nature of sin because we are came from Adam! I said for through Adam all sinned.
I presume by "nature of sin" you're referring to "original sin".
The context we are discussing this is not original sin but "actual sin" - sins of commission or omission that St Paul would've referred to when he said "all have sinned". So please answer the question again. Specifically, can the unborn, babies, children below the age of reason, mentally handicapped people and the like commit sins of commission or ommision? Or do you suppose St Paul was talking about original sin?
"And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless." Lk 1:6 What does this mean?
"The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation." Gen 7:1 What does this mean (especially given that St Paul says "no one is righteous, not one")?
"Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee." Lk 1:28 What does this mean?
Also, you still haven't answered my earlier questions whether "all" people in the world went after Jesus, whether "all" Judeans were baptized and whether "all" in Israel will be truly saved. Isn't that what scripture appears to indicate? If not, why not? The word "all" is prominent in "all" the related verses, is it not?
@francisxcc, do you understand that we are all sinners because Adam and Eve sinned? How do you understand this scripture?Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.
No, I do not understand that all human beings are sinners just because Adam and Eve chose to sin. The Bible does not teach that, nor does the Church. The Bible does say though that death entered the world for all by the sin of Adam, even for those who have not sinned. Read the two verses following the one you quoted and you'll find Paul referring to "those who DID NOT sin after the pattern of the trespass of Adam".
The notion that ALL of us are bound to sin is a very nasty heresy first preached by the so-called "reformers" of God's one true Church. If it were true, it would mean that God's grace can NEVER be sufficient for man - which would be another diabolical heresy. It would also make a joke out of Jesus exhorting us to be perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect. Think. Think. Think. And read the Bible in its entirety before trying to understand individual parts of it, out of context.
Now, are you going to answer the questions I asked you - about whether the unborn in their mother's wombs, babies, children below the age of reason, mentally handicapped people, etc... are capable of sinning?
@francisxcc, I gave the whole verse if u read. God was indeed speaking to Eve but her was was about the prophetic birth of Jesus having victory over the devil. I'm not in any haste for erroneous points. U r making Mary sinless and do not run away from the poin that Mary is not sinless, for ALL have sinned. I believe u don't know more than God who is omniscient and still insists we all neede saviour? He could have at least said something like APART FROM MY MOTHER?
Was Paul unaware of such people when he said "ALL have sinned"? Or did he mean "all" in a general sense - with obvious exceptions such as these?
Also tell me:
God created Adam and Eve sinless. Now would He not do at least the same for His own Mother? Or would HIS own Parent be LESS favored than OUR first parents? What is your view of God?
You don't seem to understand the word "ALL" (Greek "pas") as often used in the Bible.
John 12:19: "ALL the world has gone after him." Did everyone in the world really go after Jesus? Mt 3:5-6: "Then went out to him, Jerusalem, and ALL Judea, and ALL the region about the Jordan; and they were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins." Were all Judeans, and all around the Jordan baptized?
Rom 11:26: "ALL Israel shall be saved". Will everyone in Israel truly be saved?
We're not talking about Eve! We're talking about God putting enmity between the serpent and the "woman". Which "woman"? No, it couldn't be (the first) Eve, because she had already sinned. Giving in to the serpent's temptations isn't being his "enemy", is it? No, God was talking about another "woman" who would, in fact (being full of grace), be a real enemy of Satan, who'd never listen to him... Now who do you think that was? (Hint: Jesus called her "woman" from the Cross.)
@francisxcc, you said Mary was PRESERVED from all sins. Why didn't the Bible say all have sinned EXCEPT MARY? Your views about Mary's sinless is not from the Bible but what you have been indoctrinated to understand. Here again, u will tell me the Bible is not the whole truth!
@francisxcc, read the contest well: Gen3: 15And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. The woman's seed was talking about Jesus defeating the devil! Not Mary.
No one said Mary defeated the devil by her own power or that she conquered death. Jesus did. You're putting words in my mouth. I referred you to the enmity between the serpent and the WOMAN. Slow down... you're confusing yourself mightily in your haste to prove your erroneous points.
@francisxcc,"(which even a child understands") I very know children understand more about God than what Catholics invent through heresies. God let's bird feed a man of God. All u people are doing is to exalt Mary who even knows she needed a saviour by saying "My spirit rejoice in God my saviour( a child understands this) n u have made Mary a saviour ha ha.
Mary needed a Savior, but not in the sense that you and I as sinners do. Mary was PRESERVED from all sin by the (anticipatory) merits of Jesus' sacrifice, because God Himself had sworn that He'd put ENMITY between the woman and the serpent. Why else would she be lauding her Savior before He'd even been born - let alone done any saving? (She didn't say "my savior-to-be", did she?)
We exalt Mary because GOD DOES. HE lifts up the lowly - particularly His humblest handmaiden.
@JD27076, if nothing is equal to Jesus, ask the guy who uploaded this vidoe n read his comments, he thinks Jesus n Mary have one flesh! And listen to JezudSlave who said Mary is our mediator between us and his son... Hahaha, Catholics r lost indeed!
If Jesus did not take flesh in Mary's womb - which means He took flesh from her, and her blood coursed through His veins (which even a child understands) - then whose physical flesh and blood did He assume?
Why, next you'll be saying that Mary isn't really the Mother of God the Son!
It's not Catholics who're lost. Sadly, it's you who is drowning either in sheer ignorance or heresies. You'll do well to go away and think a little before firing off any more silly insults at others.

of the bishop, the archbishop, the cardinal or the pope. Indeed it is equal to that of Jesus Christ. For in this role the priest speaks with the voice and the authority of God Himself. WHEN THE PRIEST PRONOUNCES THE TREMENDOUS WORDS OF CONSECRATION, HE REACHES UP INTO HEAVENS, BRINGS CHRIST DOWN FROM HIS THRONE, AND PLACES HIM UPON OUR ALTAR TO BE OFFERED UP AGAIN AS THE VICTIM FOR THE SINS OF MAN."
@francisxcc : Your words have such profound wisdom! God bless you and keep up the great work! I am a Catholic myself. Although I revered Mother Mary all my life, it is only recently that my love for her has grown exponentially and am praying all the four Rosaries every day (try to) with the help of the videos on you tube. She surely leads you to Jesus, and the Blessed Trininty. My love for the Holy Eucharist has grown so much too (unexplainable). Thanks to Mother Mary for leading me along.
“In the Magnificat, the great hymn of our Lady, we find some surprising words. Mary says, “Henceforth all generations will call me blessed.” The Mother of the Lord prophesies the Marian praises of the Church for all of the future, the Marian devotion of the People of God until the end of time. In praising the Mother of God, the Church did not invent something ‘adjacent’ to Scripture: she responded to this prophecy which Mary made at that moment of grace.”
“And Mary’s words were not only personal, perhaps arbitrary words. Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit as St Luke said, exclaimed with a loud cry, ‘Blessed is she who believed…’ And Mary, also filled with the Holy Spirit, continues and completes what Elizabeth said, affirming, ‘all generations will call me blessed’. It is a real prophesy, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and in venerating Mary, the Church responds to a command of the Holy Spirit; she does what she has to do.”
“We do not praise God sufficiently by keeping silent about His saints, especially Mary, who became His dwelling place on earth. The simple and multiform light of God appears to us exactly in its variety and richness only in the countenance of the saints, who are the true mirrors of His light. And it is precisely by looking at Mary’s face that we can see more clearly than in any other way the beauty, goodness and mercy of God. In her face we can truly perceive the Divine Light.”
When Mary prophesied that all generations would call her blessed, she added “from this day”! Lo and behold, in Jesus’ own time someone called out “Blessed is the womb that bore Thee and the breast that gave Thee suck!”
I reckon that was the first human “Hail Mary” (the angel Gabriel got there first)! :)
And so the praise of Mary will always be, among “all generations” of faithful Christians. How good are God’s works and decrees?
Glad to hear of your increasing awe of Jesus in the Most Holy Eucharist, and your growing love for His/our Blessed Mother.
The two do go together. (You might even say they're one flesh! :) )
Mary ("tainted mankind's solitary boast") is totally Christological - she is full of grace and centered in Christ. And her Immaculate Heart is His most favored dwelling place.
Little wonder we want to imitate her, the first and perfect Christian, in our own discipleship of our Lord!
@francisxcc I am a new Catholic, I became a Catholic this year at Easter Vigil. I can understand what those that are not Catholic, and those that have not learned the truth about the first Church, and how they really do not understand. Even after becoming Catholic, I had a hard time with "Mary" It went against my Protestant upbringing. I was determined to find out for myself, and prayed as never before. Mary was so patient with me. I have a true love for "Our Mother" and Jesus our savior.
Praise God that you've arrived at the fullness of Truth.
At times I can sound hard with those who don't believe, who have such difficulty accepting in faith the glorious things that God has done for us, but what actually distresses me is not the doubters, but the fact that (in the name of truth!), so much of such value has been stolen from our fellow Christians. I pray your testimony will go towards helping to make us all one - as Jesus Himself so earnestly wished. God bless.
@francisxcc Thank for your words. I know that you mean well. I saw a video on Cardinal Bernadine last week. His words were so profound. He encouraged all those around him, to live in the presence of God while here on earth. Can you imagine, if everyone did this! Explaining that if we do so, then our passing from this world into the next, would be a continuation. I truely grieve for this world, it is our duty to tell people the truth, whether they want to hear it or not. God bless you!
you are telling me, my nose is not in the Bible fair enough! Now, you are saying I should not trust the Bible alone cuz its a fallacy! Now, based on what you said, we are to accept every religion, Islam, SDA, JW,Latter day saints etc because even tho Bible condemns, we should accept it! We need not use Bible alone. Every other religion must go to heaven!! This is a serious! this is universal salvation which is sin! U r telling people to luk for answers somewhere cuz Bible is unenough
Right from the start, being a Christian has always required faith, and obedience to the Church which Jesus founded and guaranteed - see my earlier comments about either accepting her teachings or calling Jesus a liar. Everything in the Bible is the true word of God; however, nowhere does it claim to be the sole source of truth nor the sole rule of faith. Rather, the Bible itself informs us that it is the (one, true) CHURCH which is the “pillar and bulwark of truth” (1 Tim 3:15).
"He that hears YOU hears ME; and he that despises YOU despises ME; and he that despises me despises him that sent me." (Luke 10:16) These are strong words from our Lord! So take note. Who is the "you" Jesus is referring to? How come true Christianity flourished for ages before and after the Bible was first (hand)written? Also, half the world is still illiterate and couldn’t read a Bible (nor understand it without teaching) even if they wanted to. So they have no access to Truth?
Did Jesus command His church to “go and teach” or write a Book, hand it out and let everyone arrive at truth simply by study/conjecture between themselves? No. The truth is to be obtained from the TEACHINGS of God’s Church, her sacred scriptures AND her sacred Tradition: "stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that you were taught, either by an oral statement or by a letter of ours." (2 Thess 2:15) Attempts to rewrite true Christianity are so foolish, they're doomed to fail!
We call the Pope our Holy Father as he is the successor of St Peter, Jesus’ appointed leader of His Church on earth. We do this in the same sense that the Apostles saw themselves as (spiritual) fathers of their flocks. St Paul writes: “I am writing you this not to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. Even if you should have countless guides to Christ, yet you do not have many fathers, for I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.” (1Cor 4:14-15)
St Paul refers to Timothy as his (spiritual) son: “For this reason I am sending you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful son in the Lord…” (1Cor 4:17) He writes to the Galatians: “My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you…” Gal 4:19 To the Thessalonians: “As you know, we treated each one of you as a father treats his children…” He calls another “my child Onesimus, whose father I have become in my imprisonment.” (Philemon 10).
Jesus’ words “call no man father” are misunderstood by some to mean we should not call any person on earth our father. But we need to read the text preceding and following the verse to get a proper idea of what Jesus was meaning. In that passage (Mt 23: 2-12) Jesus is condemning seeking the praise of men and claiming of teaching authority where there is none. To interpret Jesus’ words to mean we should call no one father in a proper sense is to do violence to the Scriptures.
@francisxcc, that is the problem, you don't believe in the Bible! Also u conceivable 'think' or is 'logical' for Jesus not to refuse Mary! Catholics make doctrines based how what they feel, implies, derived from etc but not what is in the Bible! This is so wrong! Base a doctrines on what is there not what U feel should be there! What abt Co-Redemtrix, Mediateix etc?
My nose isn't mentioned in the Bible. Does that mean it doesn't exist? Who says that everything that God has made is listed in the Bible? Sadly, you seem to have fallen victim to the nonsensical (and in fact, un-biblical) doctrine of "Sola Scriptura".
Look around you. Everything good on earth is a reflection of everything good in heaven. For not only was man created in God's image and likeness, so was all else, to reflect His glory. Mothers (and their natural roles) included.
It is only common sense that a Perfect Son could never deny His own Mother's legitimate pleas.
"Then Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, and the king stood up to meet her and paid her homage. Then he sat down upon his throne, and a throne was provided for the king’s mother, who sat at his right. She said, “There is one small favor I would ask of you. Do not refuse me.” The king said to her, “Ask it, my mother, for I will not refuse you.” 1 Kings 2:19-20
i have a fundamental problem with Catholics on how you interpret scriptures. If a king says I won't refuse my mother anything, does that presupposes that Jesus wont refuse Mary? All I am asking is a Bible verse to say that Jesus cant refuse Mary anything and I will be a Catholic immediately! You can't pick an instance somewhere and make doctrine out of it! If David killed, is it aright for me to kill as well cuz it is in the Bible? Give me quotation that Mary is Mediatrix, etc!!!
Please understand that the Catholic (i.e. universal) Church CAN NEVER teach error. It is the ONLY Church that Jesus founded, commissioned to TEACH all nations, promised to be with ALL days, and declared the gates of hell would NEVER prevail against. So to say the Catholic Church teaches error is nothing short of saying Jesus lied. And to suggest anyone understands the Bible better than the very Church who GOD inspired to INFALLIBLY compose and canonize it is a self evident falsity.
Did I not remind you of Jesus' response at Cana when His Mother approached Him about the problem of the finished wine?
Did I not point out to you earlier that a Perfect Son CANNOT conceivably refuse His Mother's legitimate requests?
Isn't that common sense? Or are Christians not to use their God given common sense when reading Scripture and instead "wrest them to their own destruction"?
The false "Bible only" ('Sola Scriptura") doctrine is the cause of your current confusion.
None of u can give me a Bible verse. All you keep saying is catechism and tradition. Is Catechism better than the Bible? Y read mystical city of God when the Bible is there? All Catholics say are things written by men/ saints/ pope but can't defend with the Bible!
FYI it is the Catholic Church who God inspired to infallibly collate & canonize the Bible. Thus it'd be ridiculous for Him to hide understanding of its contents from the Church, while giving that knowledge to a bunch of other people - some 1500 years later! That'd be like you understanding the Law of Relativity better than Albert Einstein himself. Is God ridiculous? What are you trying to say? And why should Christians not read any good literature besides the Bible? Who doesn't?
Can you give me a Bible verse that says Mary is intercessor? Co- Redemtrix? Queen of heaven? Why we have to sell our soul to her? What is the work of the Holy Spirit in Catholic Church?
This conversation is heading the well worn way of cynical fundamentalist unbelief vs the rich Christian faith. I don't play that game - involving a wayward tail trying to wag the dog. The overwhelming majority of Christians believe the one truth about these things as I do. If you're keen to know why, ask a Catholic priest near you. Or read the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Otherwise, as I said earlier, do whatever your personal (mis)understanding of God's deeds leads you to do.
@nobolistic read the mystical city of god open you,re eyes the rosary is all the life of jesus christ through his most holy mother mary , mary the mother of jesus christ who was and still is the immaculate conception , mary asked for name to kept out of the bible out of humility to jesus thats the deal
1. There are way too many Biblical verses alluding to Mary's intercession, co-operation in our Redemption and her Queenship of heaven (and earth) to list here. Check the Catechism. Talk to a Catholic priest.
2. Nobody I know has sold his/her soul to anyone. Who suggested that you should do so? Bad person, whoever.
3. The work of the Holy Spirit in His one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church? Where do I start? How many years you got to dedicate to study and proper understanding?
Both. If the former is unhappy with my flawed discipleship of Him (i.e. when I fall into sin), the latter will assist me to repent and follow Him better, and indeed, intercede for mercy for me to Him! That's what mothers do, don't they?
Jesus doesn't need Mary to tell him the wine in our lives is empty! Jesus is omnipotent! He knows everything. What us the work of the Holy Spirit? Is He not the intercessor? The bridge between Man and God is Jesus. Why are u creating another bridge?
God bless you for this video. Have shared this at the Facebook page of the Virgin of the Globe Farm / Virgin of the Globe Prayer Group, Indianapolis,Indiana, U.S.A.
@28804ecorrell The Roman Catholic Church teaches unbiblical doctorines like the Trinity and celebrates Pagan festivals Like Christmas and Easter, Also batpizes Infants which is completely unbiblical.
Oh, don't be silly! The Catholic Church compiled and canonized the Bible, inspired by God. Therefore if anyone should know what the Word of God means, she should, again inspired by the same God. And she teaches accordingly. Enough of you dissenters' mad claims. Why, next you'll be telling us you understand the Theory of Relativity better than Albert Einstein himself! Seriously, if you don't have any rational comment to add to my channnel, please stay away.
I know in the bible its written that we should not belive our dreams, am origin from kenya married and live in italy. but i always dream being in kenya and having alot of problem and my kid suffer n trying my best to comunacate to my sister n not able, n also trying to comunacate to my husband not able, and also i dream we were there with my husband n my hasband was treated very bad like about to be killed but he didn't want to tell me anything he just wanted we go away from there. why this?
Not sure about the Bible bit (not believing dreams, etc...), but dreams are usually just suppressed thoughts which surface from the subconcious mind when the conscious human brain is largely inactive during sleep. Sounds to me like you are simply "dreaming" your deepest hopes and fears about your family, that's all. Of course you can always pray that any problems in the family may be satisfactorily resolved. You can even confidently seek our Blessed Mother's help with that. God bless.
I love praying the Rosary. It is like meditating. Not Catholic? Then go try yoga and leave us alone. Stop your hatred of the CC and go help someone poor or sick in the name of JC or just shut up.
It's intriguing to mark how much our modern secular culture has been aided by the Protestant rejection of divinely vested authority and teaching. With stuff like "Sola Scriptura" it's each man for himself, shaping his own beliefs and morals from personal (mis)readings of profound sacred texts - supposedly guided by the one "spirit", despite an unending diversity of outcomes. The culture is now hostage to the sovereignty of each individual's mind; that has become man's supreme value!
I am a new Catholic. I try to pray the Rosary every day. Sometimes at home, by myself, or before daily mass with others. It is the greatest thing that I have ever done in my life. I have never been happier. I have always love Jesus, and always believed that Mary was my helper. What people need to do is learn the history of Christianity, and they will be suprised to find out that the Catholic church was the first church and that up until the 1500's ALL Christians prayed the Rosary.
You're so right! Division is not of God, let alone the splintering of his Body into thousands of flocks, each with their own "take" on His Will and Word - for the very essence of Divinity is love and unity (compenetration, in fact) in the Trinitarian Godhead. If the three persons of the Godhead are of one mind and will, then all who wish to gain a share of the divine life MUST, at the very least, share the same faith. Sadly, a billion Christians are yet to understand this. In JMJ.
And it came to pass, as HE spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice & said unto Him "Blessed" is the WOMB that BARE THEE & the Paps which THOU hast Sucked. But He Said "Yea rather, BLESSED are THEY that Hear the Word of GOD and KEEP IT"!
1. Nobody worships Mary. And Jesus doesn't rebuke hypotheticals. (Looks like you fell for the fiction about "Catholics worshipping Mary").
2. All that verse of Scripture means is that the Mother of God is blessed precisely because she hears the word of God and keeps it. ("Let it be done unto me according to thy word.") You make it sound like it was some put down of Mary, when it was exactly the opposite!
Come learn Scripture from Jesus' Church, instead of someone else's.
@francisxcc 1. Everytime u pray in her name u r worshipping her as a god! but the Word of God says Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other for there is NONE other NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved"
2. Why believ ur interp of scripture? James 1:5 "If ANY of you lack wisdom let him ASK of God that giveth to ALL MEN liberally & upbraideth not & it SHALL be given him" cc forgets the Holy Spirit knows secrets&intent of heart=pureheart=pure interp.cc=dark(ages)ness
1. "Everytime u pray in her name u r worshipping her as a god!" Huh? How does that figure? And what does Acts 4:12 have to do with praying?
2. It's not my interpretation. It's the teaching of the Church which Jesus founded to "go and teach all nations". NO, He DIDN'T found THOUSANDS of differing churches, denominations and sects to run around expounding personal, conflicting and contradictory interpretations of His Catholic Bible AND slander His true Church. Sorry, no sale!
@francisxcc So, why pray to her? when Word of God =Heb7:25 "Wherefore HE is able also to SAVE them to the uttermost that come unto God by HIM seeing HE EVER LIVETH to make INTERCESSION for them" & Rom8:27,34And HE that searcheth the hearts knoweth whats the MIND of the Spirit bcaus HE maketh INTERCESSION for THE SAINTS according to the will of God. "Who's he that condemneth? Its CHRIST that DIED yea, that is RISEN who IS even at the RIGHT HAND of God, who also maketh INTERCESSION for us! Amen!
That's great, dagreat! You pray solely to the Son to get you wherever. We have no problem with that at all!
We Catholics will keep praying to the Son, AND to His Mother to help us remain in Him. You see, for us, being always in the Son is easier said than done!
But then, knowing that, He gave us His Mother from the Cross to help us with just that!
P.S. You STILL haven't answered my question about where you get your theology from - unless you're making it all up by by yourself?
@francisxcc Yur comments why God used Martin Luther. Expose errors in cc. No scripture tells us to worship, pray, venerate in form of idols the image/ghost of mary other than "all generations call her blessed". Scripture = Jesus was "full of grace" John 1:14 NOT mary! Heb 7:25, Rom 8:27,34 =Jesus ONLY access to God, NOT mary=NO proof resurrected=no date, place, eyewitness=a pope wakesup one morning & creates it like the greeks make up zues!! My Theology = Sola Scriptura=Gods Checks & Balances
Sorry, no more of this slanderous ranting from you. You'll have to find another channel via which to push your PERSONAL beliefs and your sadly confused understanding of Scripture. This channel is dedicated to the Splendor of Truth - for those who want to hear and heed Him. Perhaps you might try reading the Catechism of the Catholic Church instead of trying to sell us false doctrines like Sola Scriptura which not only has no scriptural basis whatsoever, but actually contradicts it.
@francisxcc Thats fine! Jesus loves you and wants you to come directly to Him for your needs. 1 Tim 2:5 For there is one God, & ONE mediator between God & men, the man Christ Jesus. You cant buy or work your way to heaven. Jesus died, shed His blood, became our intercessor who now sits at right hand of God representing us. 2 Cor 11:3 "But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the SIMPLICITY that is in Christ" God Bless
Yes, Jesus is indeed our one MEDIATOR with the Father - as both Scripture and our Catechism affirms. While His Blessed Mother, His saints in heaven, and His disciples here on earth are our INTERCESSORS, for "the prayer of the just availeth much". As for buying and working, sure no one can buy or work their way into heaven, but we should, and most of us do, WORK OUT our salvation - with Pauline fear and trembling! May God bless you and grant you the FULLNESS of His grace and truth.
2) falsely accuse Catholics of things they do not do
3) pick an argument(s) with (thus far irrelevant) quotes from scripture
4) slander God's Church along the way
I suspect the last is your principal desire - correct me if I'm wrong.
Now first of all I need you to tell me (and my viewers) which "church", "sect", "denomination" or group you draw your understanding ot scriptures from.
1. Not boastful, but Im very well educated on catholic dogma
2. Jus revealing freedom from false ideology of any churches that feel they have a monopoly Gods Kingdom. To falsely accuse = breaks 9th Commandment. Facts are king.
3. No such thing as "irrelevant" quotes from scritpure. Man is "irrelevant" w/out "them" placed (n proper context) n the role they belong & the Holy Spirit Governs understanding
4. Salvation is of the Jews not gentiles= 12Tribes OT, 12Apostles NT =John4:22
1) Either you're NOT well educated in the true faith at all or you're telling deliberate untruths by claiming that Catholics "worship" Mary.
2) God's Church (His Catholic Church and no other) is the very "Pillar and Bulwark of truth". The question of any "false ideology" in it therefore doesn't arise.
3) I enquired how that verse from Acts was relevant to praying. You not only failed to reply, but have come back with more irrelevant commentary.
@francisxcc 1. I'm very aware of traditions of man used by cc
2. 1 PETER 5:1-3 = Peter was an ELDER not a Bishop; Peter says to "oversee flock but NOT by constraint" or FORCE like the cc has been perpetrating. Peter said "be examples not "lords over".
Elder Peter says JESUS is the Chief Shepherd & "Bishop of OUR souls" 2 PETER 2:25. NOT the catholic church. God says John 10:16 "Other sheep have I that are not of this fold" =
3. Prove mary is alive & I'll give better response
1) Is that so? Say, you wouldn't happen to be a lapsed Catholic, would you?
2) Huh? What sort of response is that to my point about the CHURCH being the Pillar and Bulwark of truth?
3) "... whoever lives and believes in me will never die." Jesus' words. He who believes what Jesus says doesn't need proofs - he accepts God's word by faith!
4) You finally got one right! Indeed, we are the Gentiles, among whom God's name is great, as He Himself confirms in Malachi 1:11. Yaaaaay!

@MrRedrockcree The power of the rosary prayer lies in the words 'Hail Mary' etc. These were the words that began everything again and when we repeat them we affirm this. Also we are reminded of the events of the life of Jesus and all He taught us in word and deed. With understanding comes increased love for Him.

@Exaltedisthecreator if i want to learn how to tie my shoes, ask God? you must be kidding. The reason we have 2 parents is to help us get to heaven, and tie our shoes. God gave us Mary and the apostles to help us get to heaven. Jesus is God
When Mary, inspired by the Holy Spirit, prophesied before Elizabeth: "All generations will call me blessed" she was echoing the words of an earlier prophesy about her in Psalm 45: "I will make your name endure from generation to generation, so nations will sing your praise for ever and ever." Generation after generation will praise the name of no mere human forever, save that of the Spouse of the Holy Spirit, the fully graced Daughter of the Father and the Mother of His Son.
@francisxcc HI i just simply cant stress the importance of the rosary it should be said now more than ever because as you know the devil is very active now he hates the rosary , the rosary is all about jesus christ through his mother mary and is very powerrful the whole world should be saying this very beautiful and powerful prayer
I love the Blessed Mother so much. G-d loves her alot more than he loves me or anyone eles. And I have no problem with that. Protestants try to put themselves up there with great people, when they dont do anything for anyone. I am not special.
Anyone knows Math? God does know Mathematics. Why is Mary Called the title : Mother of God?. Question: *God= Father + Son + Holy Spirit (Amen) Example: Father = Son = Holy spirit (Amen) Question: If Mary = Mother + God*. Example: (mother of God) Then: Does Mary = Mother of Father + Mother of Son + Mother of Holy Spirit? See when you say Son of God you mean Son=God But when you say Mother of God then it means Mother=God is that anywhere in the Bible? Who invented that?
The unique nature of the Holy Trinity is the greatest of all Mysteries, impenetrable by the human mind (and math), this side of heaven. We know only the little that has been revealed to us by Jesus (of the existence of the Father and the Holy Spirit. as distinct other Persons in the one Godhead). Thus we live simply by faith in Jesus' teachings. Love doesn't have a mathematical formula.
Saint Elizabeth called Mary "mother of my Lord". That's why I referred you to Luke 1:43 in my first response.
I don't like the tone of your Catholic bashing comments. If you're another of those "reformed" fundamentalists hilariously claiming that you can personally interpret scripture better than God's one true Church does, you've come to the wrong place with your false claims and charges. Faithful Christians have no time to entertain boring, infantile, unsubstantiable heresies.
St. Elizabeth was not a disciple to baptize Mary with with Claim "Mother of my God", she simply said mother of "MY" Lord. and you are going too far, I believe Mary is Mother of the Lord Jesus Christ period. but she is no Mother of the Father and the Holy Spirit by any means, considering Jesus and the Father are one!
If God is Mary's Lord how can she be his mother?
but according to flesh he is her son, but according to Spirit he's the one who made the heavens and earth, not Mary.
What does "my Lord" mean, if not "God"? Who is this "Lord Jesus Christ" you refer to, if not God?
Ponder your own questions and you'll understand why the Holy Trinity is essentially Mystery - and Mary is at once the Mother of the God the Son, the favoured daughter of God the Father and Spouse of God the Holy Spirit! Then you'll live by faith and not by sight or algebra or seeking to decipher what is truly Divine Mystery - except for the bits which God has chosen to reveal to man.
Also: if you deny that Mary is the Mother of God, you deny that her Son is God - that He is at once FULLY God and FULLY man. Jesus, the Son of God, chose to become the Son of Man so that, in Himself, He could fully unite divinity and humanity. Jesus isn't a schizophrenic with two separate "natures". And no, Mary didn't give birth to a "nature"; she bore a fully fledged Son!
Claiming that being the mother of Jesus doesn't make Mary the Mother of God leads only to a dead end.
Divine is Only Jesus, it's not Mary, Mary did not die for the sins of humanity, she cannot save.
Jesus is called Savior no one else. God is only jelous if you put him beside another person, the reason Jesus rejected the natural relationship with Mary in all the scriptures is simply becaus everlasting God cannot be born only the Son was. and cannot accept a Mothership because he's devine "Son of God", God took a flesh like ours "Son of Man" so he can suffer and die instead of us
Whoever said Mary is divine, that she died for the sins of humanity or that she is anyone's savior? What are you on about?
And what's this stuff about "Jesus rejected the natural relationship with Mary" and that "everlasting God cannot be born"? Everlasting God was indeed born of a woman, as a human being - that's what the Incarnation is all about! And He indeed accepted a human mother and was fully obedient to her.
Jesus on the Cross said my God my God why have thou forsaken me.
you are ignoring this.
there is a hint..because here is where most of you catholics fail. Jesus did not obey his mother because God cannot obey people's commandments (don't think i mean prayer! that's different) but Mary the mother obeyed God's commandments through Jesus. and that is what exact Mary did and you reject.
Stop looking for miracles of Mary and position your hearts to Jesus who loves
Which part of "And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them" (Luke 2:51) don't you understand?
Miracles? Including those through the intercession of God's Mother? Love them! God's powers never wane, His actions never stop, His wonders never cease!
It seems you came here only to indulge in the vile sport of Catholic bashing, but given your inept performance thus far (not to mention your bad algebra), don't you think it's time you quit? Seriously!
I am not here to give you a course in authentic Christianity as you stumble from doctrinal error to error with each of your comments.
You can either keep subscribing to the hideous heresies which you've been so tragically led into believing, or you can go ask a few questions off a Catholic priest or read the Catechism of the Catholic Church which is freely available online.

If you are to destined to such an extraordinary state of being would it not make rational sense that God would prepare her in the most divine way possible. If God i

I do not accept the "20 mysteries". There are 15. The "Luminous" mysteries are one of John Paul II's many changes to the religion which are not well founded. (I also reject the appelation "the Great" after his name. John Paul was not a great pope.)
Mary gave the Rosary to St. Dominic, I seem to recall studying. There were 15 mysteries then. St. Louis de Montfort (d. 1715) confimed that as well.

Are you a Catholic?
Is Mary above the Church or part of it (albeit the very prototype for it)?
Does Mary direct the Church or does her Divine Spouse?
Can she ever dissent with anything Mother Church does in her wisdom and authority for the benefit of her children?
Does Mary extend such protection to an especially beloved, devoted child that even an assassin's bullet cannot kill him?

nobolistic 2 months ago
@nobolistic
Not at all. John 1:14 says that Jesus was "pleres charitos", which literally means "full of grace." "Kecharitome" being a perfect passive participle, means Mary was possessed by grace even as Gabriel spoke to her. St Jerome, instead of using a long convoluted sentence to translate the word, simply used "gratia plena" in Latin - meaning "full of grace". He was absolutely right, because Gabriel did not use kecharitome just to describe Mary, by God's order her used it as her title!

@francisxcc, in Luke 1:28, check all the various versions of the Bible, they are said she is highly favoured!

Compare it to John 1 which says Jesus is full of grace n truth.

@nobolistic
“Highly favored” is a mistranslation found in several English Bibles. The Douay Rheims, RSV-CE (1965-66) and the Confraternity NT (1941) read "full of grace". So which translation is more accurate? What did the original Bible say?
The original word in the Greek Bible to describe Gabriel’s greeting was kecharitomene. It is the only time the word appears in the Bible. St Jerome correctly translated it as gratia plena (full of grace) in Latin.
francisxcc 2 months ago
@francisxcc
Although some Protestants insist on translating kecharitomene as “highly favored” (for some reason ignoring the perfect passive participle aspect of the word), the correct translation is backed by the authority of the Latin Fathers; the Codices of Alexandrinus and Ephrem; the Syriac and Arabic versions of the Bible; and even the writings of Protestants such as Wycliffe, Tyndale, and Beza.

@francisxcc
So... I ask again:
Why was Mary, in her Magnificat, lauding her Savior ("my savior") before He had even been born, let alone done any dying or (obvious) saving?
Why didn’t she refer to Him as her future “Savior-to-be”?
What great “things” (plural) had God already done for her - as she herself proclaimed?
Think. Think. Think!
francisxcc 2 months ago
@nobolistic
The word "kecharitomene" is a perfect passive participle. A participle describes a subject. The perfect tense describes an action which has a completed aspect.
So, "kecharitomene", used by Gabriel as a title, means "you who have been graced" or "you who have been made graceful". The past participle means that although the gracing is a completed action, the effects are still ongoing: Mary is still filled with grace when Gabriel says this.

@francisxcc, yes, I mean original sin. We all have the original sin with us. Now, in the context of 'all' thing you said, I know, not just in Bible context but in English context that certain terms are different in actual context form. For example Job was righteous in Job 1 but does it mean he never sinned? Not at all.

So you accept that St Paul did NOT teach that "all" have sinned by commission or ommision - which is what you appeared to imply when you so promptly quoted him in relation to at least part of the question of the sinlessness or otherwise of the Mother of God? (The two parts of the question being original sin and actual sin. I'm also addressing the question of original sin in Mary in my other comments, as you can see.)

The context we are discussing this is not original sin but "actual sin" - sins of commission or omission that St Paul would've referred to when he said "all have sinned". So please answer the question again. Specifically, can the unborn, babies, children below the age of reason, mentally handicapped people and the like commit sins of commission or ommision?

No, I do not understand that all human beings are sinners just because Adam and Eve chose to sin. The Bible does not teach that, nor does the Church. The Bible does say though that death entered the world for all by the sin of Adam, even for those who have not sinned. Read the two verses following the one you quoted and you'll find Paul referring to "those who DID NOT sin after the pattern of the trespass of Adam".

The notion that ALL of us are bound to sin is a very nasty heresy first preached by the so-called "reformers" of God's one true Church. If it were true, it would mean that God's grace can NEVER be sufficient for man - which would be another diabolical heresy. It would also make a joke out of Jesus exhorting us to be perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect. Think. Think. Think. And read the Bible in its entirety before trying to understand individual parts of it, out of context.

We're not talking about Eve! We're talking about God putting enmity between the serpent and the "woman". Which "woman"? No, it couldn't be (the first) Eve, because she had already sinned. Giving in to the serpent's temptations isn't being his "enemy", is it? No, God was talking about another "woman" who would, in fact (being full of grace), be a real enemy of Satan, who'd never listen to him... Now who do you think that was? (Hint: Jesus called her "woman" from the Cross.)

Mary needed a Savior, but not in the sense that you and I as sinners do.

Why else would she be lauding her Savior before He'd even been born - let alone done any saving? (She didn't say "my savior-to-be", did she?)

@francisxcc : Your words have such profound wisdom! God bless you and keep up the great work! I am a Catholic myself. Although I revered Mother Mary all my life, it is only recently that my love for her has grown exponentially and am praying all the four Rosaries every day (try to) with the help of the videos on you tube. She surely leads you to Jesus, and the Blessed Trininty. My love for the Holy Eucharist has grown so much too (unexplainable). Thanks to Mother Mary for leading me along.

“In the Magnificat, the great hymn of our Lady, we find some surprising words. Mary says, “Henceforth all generations will call me blessed.” The Mother of the Lord prophesies the Marian praises of the Church for all of the future, the Marian devotion of the People of God until the end of time. In praising the Mother of God, the Church did not invent something ‘adjacent’ to Scripture: she responded to this prophecy which Mary made at that moment of grace.”

“And Mary’s words were not only personal, perhaps arbitrary words. Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit as St Luke said, exclaimed with a loud cry, ‘Blessed is she who believed…’ And Mary, also filled with the Holy Spirit, continues and completes what Elizabeth said, affirming, ‘all generations will call me blessed’. It is a real prophesy, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and in venerating Mary, the Church responds to a command of the Holy Spirit; she does what she has to do.”

“We do not praise God sufficiently by keeping silent about His saints, especially Mary, who became His dwelling place on earth. The simple and multiform light of God appears to us exactly in its variety and richness only in the countenance of the saints, who are the true mirrors of His light. And it is precisely by looking at Mary’s face that we can see more clearly than in any other way the beauty, goodness and mercy of God. In her face we can truly perceive the Divine Light.”

The above quote is from Pope Benedict XVI.
When Mary prophesied that all generations would call her blessed, she added “from this day”! Lo and behold, in Jesus’ own time someone called out “Blessed is the womb that bore Thee and the breast that gave Thee suck!”
I reckon that was the first human “Hail Mary” (the angel Gabriel got there first)! :)
And so the praise of Mary will always be, among “all generations” of faithful Christians. How good are God’s works and decrees?

Glad to hear of your increasing awe of Jesus in the Most Holy Eucharist, and your growing love for His/our Blessed Mother.
The two do go together. (You might even say they're one flesh! :) )
Mary ("tainted mankind's solitary boast") is totally Christological - she is full of grace and centered in Christ. And her Immaculate Heart is His most favored dwelling place.
Little wonder we want to imitate her, the first and perfect Christian, in our own discipleship of our Lord!

@francisxcc I am a new Catholic, I became a Catholic this year at Easter Vigil. I can understand what those that are not Catholic, and those that have not learned the truth about the first Church, and how they really do not understand. Even after becoming Catholic, I had a hard time with "Mary" It went against my Protestant upbringing. I was determined to find out for myself, and prayed as never before. Mary was so patient with me. I have a true love for "Our Mother" and Jesus our savior.

At times I can sound hard with those who don't believe, who have such difficulty accepting in faith the glorious things that God has done for us, but what actually distresses me is not the doubters, but the fact that (in the name of truth!), so much of such value has been stolen from our fellow Christians. I pray your testimony will go towards helping to make us all one - as Jesus Himself so earnestly wished. God bless.

@nobolistic
Right from the start, being a Christian has always required faith, and obedience to the Church which Jesus founded and guaranteed - see my earlier comments about either accepting her teachings or calling Jesus a liar. Everything in the Bible is the true word of God; however, nowhere does it claim to be the sole source of truth nor the sole rule of faith. Rather, the Bible itself informs us that it is the (one, true) CHURCH which is the “pillar and bulwark of truth” (1 Tim 3:15).

"He that hears YOU hears ME; and he that despises YOU despises ME; and he that despises me despises him that sent me." (Luke 10:16) These are strong words from our Lord! So take note. Who is the "you" Jesus is referring to? How come true Christianity flourished for ages before and after the Bible was first (hand)written? Also, half the world is still illiterate and couldn’t read a Bible (nor understand it without teaching) even if they wanted to. So they have no access to Truth?

Did Jesus command His church to “go and teach” or write a Book, hand it out and let everyone arrive at truth simply by study/conjecture between themselves? No. The truth is to be obtained from the TEACHINGS of God’s Church, her sacred scriptures AND her sacred Tradition: "stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that you were taught, either by an oral statement or by a letter of ours." (2 Thess 2:15) Attempts to rewrite true Christianity are so foolish, they're doomed to fail!

We call the Pope our Holy Father as he is the successor of St Peter, Jesus’ appointed leader of His Church on earth. We do this in the same sense that the Apostles saw themselves as (spiritual) fathers of their flocks. St Paul writes: “I am writing you this not to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. Even if you should have countless guides to Christ, yet you do not have many fathers, for I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.” (1Cor 4:14-15)

@nobolistic
Jesus’ words “call no man father” are misunderstood by some to mean we should not call any person on earth our father. But we need to read the text preceding and following the verse to get a proper idea of what Jesus was meaning. In that passage (Mt 23: 2-12) Jesus is condemning seeking the praise of men and claiming of teaching authority where there is none. To interpret Jesus’ words to mean we should call no one father in a proper sense is to do violence to the Scriptures.

It is only common sense that a Perfect Son could never deny His own Mother's legitimate pleas.
"Then Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, and the king stood up to meet her and paid her homage. Then he sat down upon his throne, and a throne was provided for the king’s mother, who sat at his right. She said, “There is one small favor I would ask of you. Do not refuse me.” The king said to her, “Ask it, my mother, for I will not refuse you.” 1 Kings 2:19-20

i have a fundamental problem with Catholics on how you interpret scriptures. If a king says I won't refuse my mother anything, does that presupposes that Jesus wont refuse Mary? All I am asking is a Bible verse to say that Jesus cant refuse Mary anything and I will be a Catholic immediately! You can't pick an instance somewhere and make doctrine out of it! If David killed, is it aright for me to kill as well cuz it is in the Bible? Give me quotation that Mary is Mediatrix, etc!!!

Please understand that the Catholic (i.e. universal) Church CAN NEVER teach error. It is the ONLY Church that Jesus founded, commissioned to TEACH all nations, promised to be with ALL days, and declared the gates of hell would NEVER prevail against. So to say the Catholic Church teaches error is nothing short of saying Jesus lied. And to suggest anyone understands the Bible better than the very Church who GOD inspired to INFALLIBLY compose and canonize it is a self evident falsity.

What God knows (everything) or needs (nothing), and what He CHOOSES to do, are two ENTIRELY different matters.
Jesus' Mother pointed out the absence of wine to her Son. Why? Hadn't He noticed?
Jesus commanded His disciple (representing us all) to "behold" His/his mother.
(Most naturally, for my Brother's Mother is my mother too.)
We create neither mothers nor bridges. God does. Not because He needs to. Because He likes to.
We shouldn't attempt to minimize HIS gracious works.

Not sure about the Bible bit (not believing dreams, etc...), but dreams are usually just suppressed thoughts which surface from the subconcious mind when the conscious human brain is largely inactive during sleep. Sounds to me like you are simply "dreaming" your deepest hopes and fears about your family, that's all. Of course you can always pray that any problems in the family may be satisfactorily resolved. You can even confidently seek our Blessed Mother's help with that. God bless.

It's intriguing to mark how much our modern secular culture has been aided by the Protestant rejection of divinely vested authority and teaching. With stuff like "Sola Scriptura" it's each man for himself, shaping his own beliefs and morals from personal (mis)readings of profound sacred texts - supposedly guided by the one "spirit", despite an unending diversity of outcomes. The culture is now hostage to the sovereignty of each individual's mind; that has become man's supreme value!

You're so right! Division is not of God, let alone the splintering of his Body into thousands of flocks, each with their own "take" on His Will and Word - for the very essence of Divinity is love and unity (compenetration, in fact) in the Trinitarian Godhead. If the three persons of the Godhead are of one mind and will, then all who wish to gain a share of the divine life MUST, at the very least, share the same faith. Sadly, a billion Christians are yet to understand this. In JMJ.

@MrRedrockcree The power of the rosary prayer lies in the words 'Hail Mary' etc. These were the words that began everything again and when we repeat them we affirm this. Also we are reminded of the events of the life of Jesus and all He taught us in word and deed. With understanding comes increased love for Him.

@MrRedrockcree no rosary in the bible...
Matthew 6:7 when you pray do not repeat it, for they think they will be heard because of their many words.Do not be like them,God knows what you need before you ask him....
The rosary is make by man hand....God is a spirit....

We are God's family and empowered by Him to do many great things, even miraculous things, to help each other, in His Name.
"Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these..." - Jesus
Come and witness the miracles in God's one true Church, involving His saints.
P.S. Since Jesus has conquered death, it has lost its sting. Whoever lives and believes in Him passes from this world into eternal LIFE.

@Exaltedisthecreator if i want to learn how to tie my shoes, ask God? you must be kidding. The reason we have 2 parents is to help us get to heaven, and tie our shoes. God gave us Mary and the apostles to help us get to heaven. Jesus is God

When Mary, inspired by the Holy Spirit, prophesied before Elizabeth: "All generations will call me blessed" she was echoing the words of an earlier prophesy about her in Psalm 45: "I will make your name endure from generation to generation, so nations will sing your praise for ever and ever." Generation after generation will praise the name of no mere human forever, save that of the Spouse of the Holy Spirit, the fully graced Daughter of the Father and the Mother of His Son.

You're absolutely right! Even in the rosary itself it is stated: "Blessed art thou among women."

It's come to my attention that President Obama always keeps a Miraculous Medal in his pocket.
Isn't it ironic that the President is pro-abortion, yet he keeps the Medal of the Immaculate Conception on him, at all times?
Let's pray to Immaculate Mary for the President, that he has a change of heart and ends legalized abortion.
It's not called the Miraculous Medal for nothing.
Oh, Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. Amen.

I love the Blessed Mother so much. G-d loves her alot more than he loves me or anyone eles. And I have no problem with that. Protestants try to put themselves up there with great people, when they dont do anything for anyone. I am not special.

Mary = Mother of (Jesus)
(Jesus) = God (the Son)
Mary = Mother of God (the Son).
(Luke 1:43)
The unique nature of the Holy Trinity is the greatest of all Mysteries, impenetrable by the human mind (and math), this side of heaven. We know only the little that has been revealed to us by Jesus (of the existence of the Father and the Holy Spirit. as distinct other Persons in the one Godhead). Thus we live simply by faith in Jesus' teachings. Love doesn't have a mathematical formula.

you are making it more impossible to understand God.
you know very well all the saints in the scriptures did not call Mary Mother of God, why do you twist scriptures
revealed by Holy Spirit and approve what mortal man said behind scriptures?
(Mat 15:3) But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

@thelordz72
Saint Elizabeth called Mary "mother of my Lord". That's why I referred you to Luke 1:43 in my first response.
I don't like the tone of your Catholic bashing comments. If you're another of those "reformed" fundamentalists hilariously claiming that you can personally interpret scripture better than God's one true Church does, you've come to the wrong place with your false claims and charges. Faithful Christians have no time to entertain boring, infantile, unsubstantiable heresies.

St. Elizabeth was not a disciple to baptize Mary with with Claim "Mother of my God", she simply said mother of "MY" Lord. and you are going too far, I believe Mary is Mother of the Lord Jesus Christ period. but she is no Mother of the Father and the Holy Spirit by any means, considering Jesus and the Father are one!
If God is Mary's Lord how can she be his mother?
but according to flesh he is her son, but according to Spirit he's the one who made the heavens and earth, not Mary.
thelordz72 1 year ago
@thelordz72
What does "my Lord" mean, if not "God"? Who is this "Lord Jesus Christ" you refer to, if not God?
Ponder your own questions and you'll understand why the Holy Trinity is essentially Mystery - and Mary is at once the Mother of the God the Son, the favoured daughter of God the Father and Spouse of God the Holy Spirit! Then you'll live by faith and not by sight or algebra or seeking to decipher what is truly Divine Mystery - except for the bits which God has chosen to reveal to man.
francisxcc 1 year ago
@thelordz72
Also: if you deny that Mary is the Mother of God, you deny that her Son is God - that He is at once FULLY God and FULLY man. Jesus, the Son of God, chose to become the Son of Man so that, in Himself, He could fully unite divinity and humanity. Jesus isn't a schizophrenic with two separate "natures". And no, Mary didn't give birth to a "nature"; she bore a fully fledged Son!
Claiming that being the mother of Jesus doesn't make Mary the Mother of God leads only to a dead end.

Divine is Only Jesus, it's not Mary, Mary did not die for the sins of humanity, she cannot save.
Jesus is called Savior no one else. God is only jelous if you put him beside another person, the reason Jesus rejected the natural relationship with Mary in all the scriptures is simply becaus everlasting God cannot be born only the Son was. and cannot accept a Mothership because he's devine "Son of God", God took a flesh like ours "Son of Man" so he can suffer and die instead of us
thelordz72 1 year ago
@thelordz72
Whoever said Mary is divine, that she died for the sins of humanity or that she is anyone's savior? What are you on about?
And what's this stuff about "Jesus rejected the natural relationship with Mary" and that "everlasting God cannot be born"? Everlasting God was indeed born of a woman, as a human being - that's what the Incarnation is all about! And He indeed accepted a human mother and was fully obedient to her.
Are you Christian?

Why are you fighting?
Jesus on the Cross said my God my God why have thou forsaken me.
you are ignoring this.
there is a hint..because here is where most of you catholics fail. Jesus did not obey his mother because God cannot obey people's commandments (don't think i mean prayer! that's different) but Mary the mother obeyed God's commandments through Jesus. and that is what exact Mary did and you reject.
Stop looking for miracles of Mary and position your hearts to Jesus who loves

Which part of "And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them" (Luke 2:51) don't you understand?
Miracles? Including those through the intercession of God's Mother? Love them! God's powers never wane, His actions never stop, His wonders never cease!
It seems you came here only to indulge in the vile sport of Catholic bashing, but given your inept performance thus far (not to mention your bad algebra), don't you think it's time you quit? Seriously!

Mat 12:50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and MOTHER.
Mary was saved from her Sin by God:
(Luk 1:47) And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Out of faith as a servant not as a Mother:
(Luk 1:38) And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord...Not Mother of the Lord!

I am not here to give you a course in authentic Christianity as you stumble from doctrinal error to error with each of your comments.
You can either keep subscribing to the hideous heresies which you've been so tragically led into believing, or you can go ask a few questions off a Catholic priest or read the Catechism of the Catholic Church which is freely available online. Or you can investigate/argue any Christian topic at forums dot catholic dot com
God bless you.
