How many protestants use birth control and find no admonition against it in the Bible?

No wonder then, where they cannot see that the purpose of intimacy is purely for family, so they cannot see that the reason Jesus has a mother is for sake of demonstrating how it is so proper to reach him through her.

Why are Catholics leading the way in the battle against birth control and abortion? Because they have the insight to recognize that that intercourse and fertilization was created to lead to a new soul, which is sacred.

In similar fashion, so God created Mary to lead us ever so gently, as a mother, to Jesus. That is why He wants her to receive honor. Honoring Mary brings us safely to her Son.

Her humility in reversing the first Eve’s treacherous “No!” into a redeeming “Yes!” is what enabled Jesus who is the way the truth and the life to enter the world.

Is it not possible that if Mary had refused Christ, that no other woman on earth throughout history would have agreed to the mission and we would have been all lost?

So let Mary be ever praised and loved, even as you praise your biological mother if your relationship with her is healthy and strong!

Seriously? The only way you Catholics can reach Jesus is through his mother? Your entire post was built on that premise as you kept repeating it.

Speaking as a Christian, I can let you in on a little secret. I approach Christ though His Word and have accepted Him in my heart.

No room (no need) for rosary beads, icons, madonnas, and other add-ons.

Another non-biblical teaching from Rome.


John 16:13
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.


John 14:6
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life.
