Every Apostle knew Jesus's mother.

How could they ALL have missed out on praying to her for intercession? Why do NONE of them even vaguely mention it?

These were people that physically met, walked, talked, and ate with her. How could they have missed out on her royal status? Why did none of them ever refer to her in this manner?

Jesus knew his mother. Why did Jesus himself NEVER mention praying to his mother for intercession? Why did Jesus never mention her royal status?


Nice job of diggin up every reference about kings mothers being honored. I missed the name Mary in every one of them though.

You think everything the Apostles taught is contained in Scripture? If that's the case, then why all the controversy in the earliest ages of Christianity over Christ's natures?

Do you honor your own mother?

What will Christ say to you at the moment you die since you don’t honor his mother in a similar fashion?

If you are interested in Scriptural apologetics regarding Mary, or if you are curious as to what role Mary should play in your life, then this book is highly recommended.

You and I know that’s right, that there is no such thing etc, but I am not sure on the best way to reach Catholics. I have found that pointing out the beliefs of the Roman Catholic church and then refuting it with the bible doesn’t work. It’s no different than any other belief system that isn’t Christian (Mormon, J.W.) etc. I think the only way to reach out is to just show love and live it and pray, and let the Holy Spirit do his work. The beatings with the bible don’t seem to be working.
