Another endorsement of that unscriptural nonsense I see.

Since virtually nothing about Mary that was printed in that book is to be found in Scripture, we can only conclude that it is based on the RCC tradition which the Catholic church holds to be of equal standing with Scripture.

Since the book has the nihil obstat and imprimatur, which means that it contains nothing contrary to faith or morals, the only logical conclusion to be made is that that book is an accurate reflection of the teachings by Tradition of the Roman Catholic church.

Now, considering that it teaches things that are either not found in Scripture, or are in direct contradiction to the clear teachings of Scripture, I’d say the Catholic church has a problem on it’s hands.

Does it endorse a book full of lies and false teachings and idolatry? Or does it renounce the book and go back to the clear teachings of the Bible that it claims to have written?

Judging by the Imprimatur, I’d say the decision have been made.

Speaking of the papist seal of approval, check out this site...

TREATISE ON THE TRUE DEVOTION TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN

"We call Mary the Mediatrix of All Graces...His design has included Mary as His helpmate...He has incorporated her in His redemptive mission from beginning to end...

She fulfils faithfully the office which He has committed to her. Subject to Him she is also most perfectly united to Him. She is fully Mother; everything connected with the children of God is placed under her influence.

She administers the divine life to them, and by her incessant maternal care she causes them to grow up in Christ. Her hand is on every item of Christian life, each grace, prayer, duty.

That is her function...

Lies. Despicable, grace-denying, Holy Spirit-nullifying lies.

Lots more where that came from.

Pity.

ABSOLUTELY INDEED.
