On the Holy Rosary
CATHOLIC CLASSICS UNLIMITED ^

Posted on 07/05/2016 1:04:18 AM PDT by OrthodoxIndianCatholic

Dear Friends in Jesus and Mary,

The Holy Rosary has a very special place in my "Spiritual Life".

Recitation of the Holy Rosary has helped me to cope with the ups and downs of life.

My Mother used to often tell me, that if you are troubled in any way ---- "Go to Jesus and Mary" by reciting the Holy Rosary. They will never let you down.

When I recite the Holy Rosary, I often think of the unique and special relationship between Jesus Christ and Mother Mary during their life on earth.

I have never stopped reciting the Holy Rosary when I learnt it at the age of 10.

I believe that the Holy Rosary is a Miraculous Prayer in itself and if said with faith and devotion it is a great help on a daily basis.

Here are two beautiful articles on the Holy Rosary.

1) The Seven Dolour Rosary.

Please provide one Scriptural example where different Churches, having disparate doctrines, are considered equally orthodox.

Here is an example where your early Catholic teaching was so grossly in ERROR that an ANGEL had to send a message!!

Revelation chapters 1-3

I don't understand, love and revere her as I've come to believe that Jesus wants me to.

This is probably from the FACT that nothing like this is even HINTED at in the Book that Rome assembled!

< Furthermore, presuming something is not valid and authoritative simply because it is not cited in Scripture is similarly erroneous (i.e. Trinitarian theology)


Furthermore, presuming something IS valid and authoritative simply because it is not cited in Scripture is simply a Roman technique.

Actually, the rosary is made up from the common people entreating the Throne of Heaven for a simple, tangible devotion to that Throne.

What?

No apparitions or visitations had ANYTHING to do with it?

I've already demonstrated the circularity that underpins those questions, thus making answering them unnecessary.

What you've demonstrated is an arrogance that states such mundane things are beneath you.

"God's Word," and Protestant dogma concerning it, are not the same thing.


"God's Word," and Catholic extension to it, are not the same thing.

Well, bless your soul. May the peace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with you as you seek Him in your own way through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

God hasn’t told you to do what you’re doing about Mary. That’s all on you.

Really?

From a CATHOLIC???

When you hold up Catholicism up to Protestant standards, it fails every time;

And when you hold up Catholicism up to BIBLICAL standards...

But you already admitted Trinitarianism requires a systematic study of the whole of Scripture.

He DID??

Cherry picking scripture to prop up your hate of Mary and her veneration will get you nowhere...

Adding to scripture to prop up your LOVE of Mary and her veneration will get you all kinds of stuff; I'm told.

The prohibition here is not simply that of some practice based on lack of example, bu that of teaching as a doctrine that something is a common fundamental practice despite any positive example, while what is taught is contrary to it...

Please define "common fundamental practice," then explain how your understanding differs from the keeping of "law."
