I have been neglectful in posting updates on the young Muslim boy, Karim, who is suffering from an incurable, flesh eating disease. Karim and his mother, Ebtisfam will be received into the Catholic Church, sometime in September, when Fr. Antonio Elfeghali comes to visit. them in Michigan I will post more information on this on Monday. In the meantime, please take a moment to offer up a prayer of thanksgiving to our Lord and His Blessed Mother! Thank you all for your prayers! God bless youl!
Now come on. This is superstitious nonsense.
Just because the Apostles were able to cure sicknesses, doesn’t mean that the Church can. Just because the Bible proves that the Church is who she says she is, doesn’t mean that it is so.
Mary? Ehhh. Just because she is the perfect vessel into which the Holy Spirit poured, conceived Jesus, bore Him, mothered Him and followed Him until His death upon the Cross, was present at Pentecost, and was received unto heaven doesn’t mean anything at all.
Nope. She is worthy only of the scorn and the spittle of the anti Catholic philistines.
Oh ye of little faith. Your post coincided with my #2. Please read it and draw faith from it. Then go and pray for our separated brethren.
Yeah, fourteen year olds talk like that all the time! [rolls eyes]
Because, I don't know, IT'S NOT A PRAYER ?
Only those 14 year olds who read Luke, apparently.
Nothing is impossible for God or His mother.
Hail Mary full of Grace... Blessed are you among women.
I have been following.
I think that there are many that would believe the lunacy of a Benny Hinn, rather than a real life documented case. Well, as long as they’re not Catholic, life is rosy and selection to the elite is guaranteed.
It is a superstitious prayer of Catholics who adore idols and think Mary a goddess.
What she said.
Looks like the Dims little Protestant vs Catholic wedge issue is about the only toe hold they have. Time to break out the clippers and cut it short.
This supercedes all the Mary issues. This IS the word!
John 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
Play nice now my fellow children.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic Ping List:
Please ping me to all note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
One little passage, one little phrase, so much doctrine.
Lee, I was looking at some Greek, and came up with a question. Was Stephen also immaculately conceived? (Okay, everyone knows where this is going...)
Did Stephen give birth to God?
Because, I don't know, IT'S NOT A PRAYER ?Really? Is this a prayer?
"Yea though I walk through the valley of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me."Well? Is it?
In explicit detail list the defects of the ark in Exodus 25.
*He is the priest who is speaking to you now! What I am I owe to Our Lady. You, too, my dear brethren, be entirely dedicated also to Our Lady and never let a day pass without saying the beautiful prayer, ‘Hail Mary’, and your Rosary. Ask her to enlighten the minds of Protestants who are separated from the true Church of Christ founded on the Rock (Peter) and ‘against whom the gates of hell shall never prevail.’”**
What a beautiful story. God bless Father Tuckwell.
The passage from Psalm 23 is part of the book of Psalms, which are specifically songs written to praise God.
So they can't possibly be considered equivalent.
Second, Jesus, Himself, was asked how to pray, and responded with what we now know as the Lord's Prayer.
If we as Christians, were to pray to saints or others such as Mary, why didn't Jesus, Himself, mention Moses or someone from the book of Judges? Or David, or Solomon?
I think MarkBsnr forgot to mark his comments with <saecasn off,
But I hope you don’t believe that. The prayer is in the Bible.
Maybe you can tell me why Protestants don’t take this passage literally as they interpret many other passages literally.
It stumps me.
