No where in Scripture is an exception carved out for Mary.

1. Jesus created his own mother.
2. Jesus was bound by the law to honor his mother, and because he obeyed perfectly, he honored her perfectly.
3. Nobody is "honored" by being created in the state of original sin; sin of any kind honors nobody.

If Mary was without sin, why couldn't God just sacrifice her on the cross for our sin? Mary was born of the flesh and is therefore born with original sin. God sent His perfect Son because there was no other solution. had there been ONE other sinless person, Jesus could have just told us to follow them and live a sinless life. He knew that was utterly impossible and sent His Son to do it for us. To pay the sin price required a man, not an angel, to pay the price. This man would have to be perfect, which there has never been since Adam. The blood of bulls and goats would "cover" sins for a year, but the blood of a perfect man would "take away" ALL the sins of every man. All that is left to us is to covenant with Him to partake of this gift through faith.

To worship Mary is to worship Semiramis, the bride of Nimrod of Babylon. The Madonna and child is much older than Mary and Jesus. Semiramis had a child after Nimrod died and she said this child was the reincarnation of Nimrod. She is known as the mother of god. This newborn son was named Tammuz and we celebrate his birth on Dec 25, the winter solstice. This is why The RCC changed the birth of Christ to Dec 25th and not Tabernacles as the Jews teach God came to live with His people in the Wilderness. In about the 4th century AD Changes came to Rome for the Christian religion should be observed by everyone. There was no Repentence, no observation of Jewish faith, and the calendars were changed as prophesied in the Bible.

All of this and more point to the Babylonian pagan religion being worshiped today as spoken of in Revelation.

For true Christian worship, the church should resemble more of a Messianic Jewish church. The Romans wanted to mix Pagan rites with Christians at the time. Jesus came as a Jew, lived as a Jew under Jewish culture and religion, Died as a Jew, and is on the Throne in Heaven as a Jew. Jews were given the oracles of God. To mimic pagan Babylon is dangerous and spoken of in Revelation. Another aspect can be found in the letter to the church at Thyatira. Thyatira was the daughter of Semiramis. Churches in Scripture are described as women or female, and a daughter is just a branch of the same mother church. Just as the Lutheran church is a daughter of the mother church in Rome, the RCC is a branch of the mother church in Babylon. Babylon was founded by the descendants of Ham. The Jews come from Shem, and Noah blessed Shem and cursed Ham. The keys for proper worship of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, is found in the Messianic Jewish worship. All of the first of the Apostles were Jewish. Jesus didn't come to start a new religion but to fulfill the Scriptures given to the Jews.
