BINGO! Give that Bible scholar an “A” for the correct answer!
Amen! But you know, this bickering back and forth gets nobody anywhere. Only the Holy Spirit is going to be able to get the Catholic (or anyone else) to see the light. They gloss over every Scripture that shows Jesus to be the only way to the Father, and use some obscure solitary Scripture to try to prove Mary is more than she is. It wasn’t always Catholic doctrine that there was a co-redemptor. The whole idea that Mary is the immaculate conception is blasphemous, and the absurd notion that she is the Bride of Christ, when the Bible teaches that we, as believers, are his Bride, is all but schizophrenic. Ah, well, “pray he one for another” .
