Very true, and as a rule dissing a man’s mother will get you in trouble!

Rome's invented 'Mary' is NOT the Mother of Jesus.

After all every one of them can be lead by the Holy Spirit and come to their own conclusions regarding scripture and somehow they’ll all be different and all be correct.

Now is the perfect time to tell us that the councils that Rome has assembled over the years all ended in UNANIMOUS votes for all the practices that Rome now performs.

Fair warning: Do Not Take The Mark when it is commanded to you, sooner than you would expect.

Oh, the horror of it all. Mary and Joseph actually had sex.

And liked it.

Assuming James was the oldest of the half brothers of Jesus, Mary and Joseph must have liked it, or James would have been the last child born to them. 😁🤣😆

As Christ was sinless, so Mary was;

Let's look at what this little tidbit REALLY is saying:

 
 
 
Luke 2:22-24
 
When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord  (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, “Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord”),  and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: “a pair of doves or two young pigeons.”
 

Leviticus 12:7-8
 
Then he shall offer it before the LORD and make atonement for her, and she shall be cleansed from the flow of her blood. This is the law for her who bears a child, whether a male or a female.
'But if she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, the one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she will be clean.'"
 
 
 
 
Sinless Mary??
  Not according to Rome's Book;    1 John 1:8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.
 
That's the way it is WRITTEN.
 
THIS is the way it is TAUGHT:  1 John 1:8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us; the only exception being Mary, Mother of GOD, of course.
 Rome has made IT's 'Mary' into a HYPOCRIT, by painting her as SINLESS, yet writing of her going into the temple to make a SIN offering.

In your case, TAKE THE MARK! But seriously, you purposely tossed up a strawman herring! No ONE has said Jesus is not GOD. Now, Catholic, is Mary the Mother of God and God her husband?

But Scripture records:

“Master, now you are dismissing your servant in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel”

(Luke 2:28–32)

Simeon speaking here.

“We don’t believe X.”

Then why does Rome TEACH X?

She was married to Joseph and they consummated the marriage after Jesus was born.

And a hundred FR Catholic heads just exploded!

you don’t understand the Trinity, three persons! One nature! They are all God, but not the same person. This is the kind of crap you end up with interpreting scripture by yourself.

Yes, they are all the same person...

Rev 22:16  I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. 

Rev 22:13  I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 

Heb 1:1  God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 
Heb 1:2  Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds

Joh 1:1  In the beginning was the Word (Jesus), and the Word (Jesus) was with God, and the Word (Jesus) was God. 

You get that??? Jesus was God......................

Joh 1:2  The same was in the beginning with God. 
Joh 1:3  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 

Jesus was the creator...

Gen 1:26  And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 

Make man, in our image, after our likeness??? God and the Holy Spirit are invisible...

Joh_14:9  Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?

Job 33:4  The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life. 
Psa 104:30  Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth. 

Gen 1:1  In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 

God created the heavens and the earth...
Jesus created the heavens and the earth...
The Holy Spirit created the heavens and the earth...

How could that be??? Because they are all the same person...

So I'm thinkin' a smart man would believe God, and not man...

And BTW, Adam heard God walking in the forest...How'd that happen since God is an invisible spirit???

Read John 6 and compare the two.

Direct us to Scripture?

Fine by me!!


John 6:25-40

25 When they found him on the other side of the lake, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?”

26 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs I performed but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. 27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.”

28 Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”

29 Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”

30 So they asked him, “What sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do? 31 Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’[c]

32 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

34 “Sir,” they said, “always give us this bread.”

35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. 36 But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. 37 All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. 38 For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. 40 For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”

Copy and paste the evidence that they aren’t!

I think that YOU made the claim they are there; yet you refuse to provide proof?

I doubt the jury will appreciate that ploy very much.

You may think Jesus Christ is just a mediator between God and man, but Catholics know better.

I just LOVE weasel words!!

They make crating a strawman SO much easier!

You seem to have problem admitting Jesus Christ is God.

It appears your Logic 101 passing grade was issued by the same school that Felicity Huffman's kid got admitted to.

However; you are ACEING the Non Sequitar courses!

You just said it again. You seem to have problem admitting Jesus Christ is God.

You have Catholics on this thread who are saying that Jesus is not God, but along with the Holy Ghost are three separate persons...

WHY CATHOLIC TEACHING SHOWS US THAT MARY IS TO BE CONSIDERED CO-REDEMPTRIX OR CO-REDEEMER. ... Just as the Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mediatrix, she also is the Co-Redemptrix or Co-Redeemer. The principle is the same.
