‘p43 1 - “Hail Mary, beloved daughter of the Father, Mother of the Divine Son, Spouse of the Holy Spirit, complement of the most august Trinity!” ‘

This is what Catholics are saying in plain English when they say that Mary is the *complement* of the Trinity.....

******************************************************************************************

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/complement

com·ple·ment

a : something that fills up, completes, or makes perfect

b : the quantity, number, or assortment required to make a thing complete *the usual complement of eyes and ears — Francis Parkman*; especially : the whole force or personnel of a ship

c : one of two mutually completing parts : counterpart

***************************************************************************************

They are attributing godhood to her; equality with God, completing the Trinity and making it perfect,( since it obviously wasn’t until she came along.....)

They are also attributing to her all the characteristics of God. Notice that she’s the *mother* (think God the Father), the *daughter* (think God the Son), and *spouse of the Holy Spirit (think equal to the Holy Spirit), and then they go on to say that she “complements” the Trinity. Only a god could do that. It’s also stating that the Trinity isn’t good enough on its own.

So much blashphemy in so few words.

Pagan. They need to read the Bible and pray for the Holy Spirit to guide their understanding.

It's no small error to believe Christ was not 100% complete within Himself alone, and, being God, had no beginning or ending. Christ does not exist "by Mary." As Scripture teaches us, "all things" exist because of Christ. Mary included, just like the rest of us.

"For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

And he is before all things, and by him all things consist." -- Colossians 1:6-17

Deception does what it was designed to do. Evil know no bounds and it brings those deceived deeper than they know.

And these Words of Jesus are willfully overlooked/ignored.....
Matt 15:8,9 "'These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.'"
Mark 7:13 "Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down.."
