Is this what we are arguing against???
What do you think? The truth is obvious to anyone with eyes and ears given by God. The rest of the world flounders in its myopia.
"The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the LORD hath made even both of them." -- Proverbs 20:12
Does the word of God tell us to glorify men or the Triune God alone? Does the Holy Spirit lead men away from the Creator and towards the creature? Is Mary actually involved in our salvation? Is she in some way responsible for our salvation since, as that RC prayer I posted presumes, Mary "delivers us from evil," and as we've now been told, "without Mary, Christ would never have been born?"
"Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father." -- John 6:65
I suppose there are lies greater than to contradict Christ's teaching here, but certainly this deification of Mary is found at the top of that long list.
INDEED.
