Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of death.
Amen.

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6)
No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. (John 6:44)

It is necessary to have recourse to the Virgin because she can only bring you to God. That's her whole mission. She has nothing of self in it at all. She lives only for God and to bring you to God, Where in the Bible is this stated? Where in scripture does it say that only Mary, the mother of Jesus, brings us to God?
John 14:6 ... Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

One of “Reformed” Christianity’s many ills: setting the Incarnate God against His Mother.

"Only" isn't being used a modifier of exclusivity. It's a correction of the "Reformed" error that Marian devotion can only lead someone away from Christ, or that it detracts from the honor due to Him. How absurd!

When Yah'shua died on the cross,
the Temple veil was rent asunder. The sacrifice of the Lamb of G-d
has erased all sin for who so ever asks.

.45 Long Colt only quoted the scriptures. Where do you get "reformed Christianity" from that?
Are you against scripture? Or do you believe that us rough peasants aren't qualified to handle it?

Only Jesus can bring us to God.
Mary was a mortal woman and she is now a dead mortal with even less power.

We mere peasants still believe that Christ had something EVERYTHING to do with Christianity. Silly us.

It's a quotation of Scripture in a prayer, not an attempt to rewrite Scripture.

My darling wife was a “cradle Catholic” and walked away from her faith in the 60s during the hippie days. Three years ago she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and given just a few months to live. While I was not Catholic or a church goer, I guess I was what some call spiritual. Anyway, not long after my wife’s diagnosis, a friend of hers brought over a statue of the Holy Mother. My wife instantly brightened and held it close. Not long after I visited the local priest and he came to our house and took 40 years worth of Confession from her. Being back with her Faith gave my wife the strength to face her trial. I saw the peace and love that Mary shared with my girl. She passed gently not long after. That love and hope led a hopeless sinner (me) to convert to the Catholic Church. The Holy Virgin led me to her Son and I was forgiven. It really is never too late.

Us "peasants" wouldn't be reading Scripture if generations of Catholic monks didn't spend many of their waking hours copying and meditating on them.

The point is an oversimplification, as Christ still appointed Apostles and disciples to spread His message. Yet, the spiritual children of the “Reformers” still illegitimately deny the authority of their successors.

The word “Jesus” does not appear in this article.
I am not surprised.
