Perhaps you are not aware but you are referencing a web site from the sspx which is in schism.

Insofar as Mary as intercessor, the saintly quotes you posted, need to be placed in context. Most of the time in the Bible, God chooses to do His work through a human, whether it's Moses, Jacob, Joseph of the Old Testament, or one of the Prophets like Isaiah or Elisha. It's no different with Mary. God allowed salvation in the person of Jesus Christ to enter into the world through Mary, even though he could have just appeared all on his own. In like manner, it shows great humility on our part to approach Jesus in the exact same way that He approached us - Through Mary. After all, if Jesus was obedient to Mary for 30 years of his life here on earth, shouldn't we imitate Him in that respect? If Mary was good enough for Jesus, who are we to say that she isn't good enough for us? Jesus Himself said that "No servant is greater than His Master".

If one is lost and needs to get somewhere, the best thing to do is to find someone who knows the way better than anyone else. Most of mankind is lost, and needs to find Jesus. Mary is the one person who knows the way better than anyone else, because she and Jesus shared the same body for 9 months, Jesus was subject to her for 30 years, they probably even look alike, and they are of one accord. Getting close to Mary is the fastest and best way to get close to Jesus. It's pure folly to even think that by getting close to Mary you are somehow getting farther away from Jesus. Jesus got his sacred Body and his precious Blood from MARY!

... behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed. - Lk 1:48

Regarding Mary....you did read the quotes?

Are they not from catholics?

Care to explain how mary "intercedes" for us?

Again, there is NOTHING in the Word that even remotely hints at this.

This is why the fifth marian dogma is coming. It will complete the false teaching of the roman catholic cult on mary and replace faith in Jesus as the only way to salvation with faith in Mary.

From the Glories of Mary.....

I render thee my most humble homage, O great Queen, and I thank thee for all the graces thou hast conferred on me until now, especially for having delivered me from Hell, which I have so often deserved. I love thee, O most amiable Lady; and for the love which I bear thee, I promise to serve thee always and to do all in my power to make others love thee also. I place in thee all my hopes; I confide my salvation to thy care.

Now let's contrast that with the Word....

And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?” 29 Jesus answered, “The most important is, ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Luke 12:28-34

You clearly don't understand why God was born in the flesh...

What nonsense...That's why Mary at the wedding said to Jesus, 'Do what I say'???

Getting close to Mary is the fastest and best way to get close to Jesus. It's pure folly to even think that by getting close to Mary you are somehow getting farther away from Jesus. Jesus got his sacred Body and his precious Blood from MARY!

Act_20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

What a goofy statement and deceiving statement...Babies and their mother's do not exchange blood...The blood comes from genes...It could be the mother's gene or the father's gene...You are providing false information which can deceive people into believing that Mary has a connection to God other than she was just a vessel for Jesus to be carried in...

Absolutely false. The SSPX is not and has never been in schism.
