If it's not would you pleas show us any other infallible source to prove the apostles taught the assumption of Mary?
Galatians 1:8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse!
We wouldn't want to have to think those that teach the assumption of Mary to be accursed would we?
Is it true that Catholics are not welcome here?
Catholics are welcome here.
Wow, you Catholics have an “Our Lady” for everything.
That’s always an exit response.
According to you cohorts here she is dead. Do you guys want to huddle and decide if she’s dead or in heaven?
Oh?
I'll bet that Mary's parents had to give a SIN OFFERING for her; just like Mary and Joseph had to do for Jesus!
Leviticus 12 Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: If a woman having received seed shall bear a man child, she shall be unclean seven days, according to the days of the separation of her flowers.
3 And on the eighth day the infant shall be circumcised:
4 But she shall remain three and thirty days in the blood of her purification. She shall touch no holy thing, neither shall she enter into the sanctuary, until the days of her purification be fulfilled.
5 But if she shall bear a maid child, she shall be unclean two weeks, according to the custom of her monthly courses, and she shall remain in the blood of her purification sixty-six days.
6 And when the days of her purification are expired, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, a lamb of a year old for a holocaust, and a young pigeon or a turtle for sin, and shall deliver them to the priest:
7 Who shall offer them before the Lord, and shall pray for her, and so she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for her that beareth a man child or a maid child.
8 And if her hand find not sufficiency, and she is not able to offer a lamb, she shall take two turtles, or two young pigeons, one for a holocaust, and another for sin: and the priest shall pray for her, and so she shall be cleansed.
Have you any EVIDENCE to lay before the jury?
Why not?
Without our Blessed Mother; you Prots would have no GOD worship!!

Don’t forget Rahab, the Whore!
I guess EVIDENCE your eyes can see is somehow beyond your comprehension?
The Mary of Catholicism is not the Mary of the Bible, but a dangerous distortion that has led multitudes into idolatry and a false salvation hope.
Jesus showed he was not favorably disposed towards his mother the way Catholicism presents him to be. Jesus honored his mother, but not as Catholicism says. Instead Jesus himself corrected those who attempted to elevate Mary and clearly defined what man should do otherwise.
Luke 11 makes this quite clear where it is written....
....As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you.”... He replied,.... “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”
I think the Vatican will peddle Mary to all world religions as “their” savior Queen....as most religions have a female deity. They’ll use her as “common ground” among the faiths. So of course this would lead to some sort of ritual as the catholics believing they’re eating Jesus.
If you say it’s so, then I accept it.
Spoken like a TBC.
Who writes this stuff, Satan or one of his henchmen???
What proof do you have that it is the Holy Spirit giving you this information???
Huh? Roman Catholics almost have squatters rights in the religious forum... This remains a discussion and debate forum.. so all voices (even protestants ) are welcome to voice their opinion
