Let them rage -they lack love because of hiding who they really are.
Pray for them.
An important Miracle

The Heaven of these humourless, angry and ugly attackers of Catholics must be worse than Hell, thanks but no thanks.
“We don’t need no theology!” — The “Pope” of these people Paul Crouch.
What do I care when you have no respect for the scripture?I respect Holy Scripture. And what you have printed out and what I have printed out both explain, to me anyway, that Mary brings people to Jesus. Why do you think so many Catholics credit Mary for their return to the faith, their deepening of the faith, their love of the faith? Because she leads them to her Son.
>> “ Because she leads them to her Son.” <<
.
Or to the false son that Satan provided.
Oy, who said Papists dont blush? What is she then, if one has to go through her to come to Jesus?Please wake up, Puny! You have to "meet" Mary, honor her, love her, but you can surely pray to Jesus alone [I always do at Adoration and Mass], but He's not going to let you into heaven, if you first don't know his mother. How absurd to think otherwise! What kind of derelict Son do you think Jesus is? He is the model for ALL men to live by. Should all men now neglect their earthly mothers casting them aside as if they served little, if any, good purpose?
Do not derisively alter another poster’s name.
“I respect Holy Scripture.”
In that case, why do you claim that Mary is sinless, when I showed you scripture which said that no one is sinless? And why do you claim that Mary brings people to Jesus, as if faith in her is necessary, when I showed you it was the Holy Spirit who brings us to Jesus? Why are you asserting things that are not in the scripture at all?
“And what you have printed out and what I have printed out both explain, to me anyway, that Mary brings people to Jesus.”
Sure, considering you based it on nothing to begin with, it makes sense that you would base it out of nothing x nothing.
“Why do you think so many Catholics credit Mary for their return to the faith, their deepening of the faith, their love of the faith?”
Because they are idolaters with feeble ideas about religion, and because they believe they will get into heaven based on their own righteousness and devotion in a human woman who is not omnipresent or omniscient, and therefore cannot hear their vain cries?
Certainly, if you think that Mary will save you, go ahead. I pity you greatly, but go ahead.
“Please wake up, Puny! You have to “meet” Mary, honor her, love her, but you can surely pray to Jesus alone”
Ah, you have no idea how much I feel for you in these delusions. I WAS a Catholic. I’ve PRAYED to Mary. Guess what? She never helped me. But God did. Ah, how did a religion it is that you are in, that you are satisfied with so little, when true answer to prayer is available by the only God who can hear. Not your dumb idols, which hear nothing and can do nothing.
Stick with your blasphemies! I will stay with Jesus Christ.
Oops, actually, I showed you two other verses. I didn’t show you the ones stating that all have sinned. Here you go:
Rom_3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
1Jn_1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Psa_143:2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified.
Isa_64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
1Co_15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Not your dumb idols, which hear nothing and can do nothing.You're grouping Mary, the mother of Christ, in with "dumb idols"? Even by fallen-away kids wouldn't talk like that! Gives me something to be happy about in that regard, I guess.
“You’re grouping Mary, the mother of Christ, in with “dumb idols”?”
Nay, just the blasphemous statue you call Mary, which cannot hear you. Don’t get the two confused. The true Mary needed a savior just like everybody else.
Mary has already stated she is the “Immaculate Conception.” Ignore all the miracles at Lourdes if you must. Block them out of your head and your ears. Cover up you ability to reason. In the end, I don’t really care how you worship, though. I just loathe the attacks on Mary, the sinless mother of God.
“Mary has already stated she is the Immaculate Conception. Ignore all the miracles at Lourdes if you must. Block them out of your head and your ears.”
Well, of course I’ll reject an unknown spirit who makes little girls wear tight ropes around their waist because the sacrifice of Christ on the cross wasn’t good enough to pay for anyone’s sins. I read the scripture, after all:
“But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.”
(Gal 1:8-9)
Thanks! I see the Coptic Church approved of these apparitions. I hadn’t known much about them previously.
“I’m disengaging from your wise-guy commentary;”
That actually assumes that you were actually “engaging” in some kind of discourse. I considered it more like a barking noise, at best.
Please wake up, Puny! You have to "meet" Mary, honor her, love her, but you can surely pray to Jesus alone [I always do at Adoration and Mass], but He's not going to let you into heaven, if you first don't know his mother.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
John 10:7-9 So Jesus again said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.
Acts 4:11-12 This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.Of course, this is true, but Mary can lead one to Jesus to begin with. They are inseparable. Just like any mother and her child would be, however, because Mary is sinless, it's a bind that is difficult to even put into words; they are naturally forever attached by a pure love.
But the Godhead isn’t a circle. It’s a triangle, with God the Father at the top. Where pray tell, does Mary fit in the triangle?
