What breathtaking blasphemy

This is Mary the Mother of God.

De Montfort further says:

8. Every day, from one end of the earth to the other, in the highest heaven and in the lowest abyss, all things preach, all things proclaim the wondrous Virgin Mary. The nine choirs of angels, men and women of every age, rank and religion, both good and evil, even the very devils themselves are compelled by the force of truth, willingly or unwillingly, to call her blessed.

According to St. Bonaventure, all the angels in heaven unceasingly call out to her: "Holy, holy, holy Mary, Virgin Mother of God." They greet her countless times each day with the angelic greeting, "Hail, Mary", while prostrating themselves before her, begging her as a favour to honour them with one of her requests. According to St. Augustine, even St. Michael, though prince of all the heavenly court, is the most eager of all the angels to honour her and lead others to honour her. At all times he awaits the privilege of going at her word to the aid of one of her servants.

Pretty heady deification for a wonderful woman that God never says is above all women.

He simply declares she is most favored *among* women.

It is idolatry. Catholics who believe and practice this are idolaters.

It is sad for Mary - someone who loves God - to be made equal to God.

I don't guess it occurred to you he was wrong and delusional?

Again breathtaking blasphemy Jesus Alone is the Name above all Names. Mary was a sinner like all the rest of us needing a Savior as badly as all of us. She is not a member of the Godhead or divine in any way. I weep for those who trust Mary for salvation. They are utterly lost.

This is Mary the Mother of God.

Who is not found in the pages of Scripture.

I've read the Bible beginning to end and have not found that title nor those attributes in there anywhere.

It appears he assigned great powers to her!!
 
 

Bonaventure: …the gates of heaven will open to all who confide in the protection of Mary. Blessed are they who know thee, O Mother of God, for the knowledge of THEE is the high road to everlasting life, and the publication of thy virtues is the way of ETERNAL SALVATION . Give ear, O ye nations; and all you who desire heaven , serve, honor Mary, and certainly you will find ETERNAL LIFE.

She says, "He that shall find Me shall find life, and shall have salvation from the Lord.   "Qui me invenerit, inveniet vitam, et hauriet salutem a Domino."

 

 

Listen," exclaims St. Bonaventure on these words, "listen, all you who desire the kingdom of God: honor the most Blessed Virgin Mary, and you will find life and eternal salvation."  "Audite qui ingredi cupitis regnum Dei: Virginem Mariam honorate, et invenietis vitam et salutem perpetuam."-psalt. B.V.ps.48.
