No, you're not done with me yet.
I run into a lot of ex-catholics. They are determined and they are right and nobody, but nobody is going to tell them otherwise. You know who else had that attitude? Eve.
Yup, you probably went to a nice Catholic elementary school and nice Catholic high school. Took religion classes from K-12 and you know Catholic doctrine better than the Pope himself.
I know the type. Very well.
But you know the difference between you and me?
You say: Im sure if you stand that with your little quote there God will just say, awe shucks, come on in even though you never trusted in my death on the cross. Im done with you...
...essentially condemning me to hell.
I, on the other hand, will say: "I don't know the state of your soul. So I will just trust in God's mercy."
Have a nice life. You, too, will be in my prayers this evening.
Doesn't the Roman Catholic Church teach that Mary is the Second Eve?
It's paralleling the Biblical Second Adam being Jesus Christ, so I understand the inference. You'll find no Biblical source of Mary as Second Eve, though.
Eve was corrupted and went against God. She convinced man to listen to her instead of God.
The Second Adam is God.
