You have a keen eye. No doubt for the laity Mary is the archtype.

It gets even worse, however, for the “professional” class. When you hear them say, “there is no bible without the Romanist Church”, the necessary inference is that the Church is Christ himself, the Word, that the Church is in hypo-static union with Christ for it to declare itself the Word. The Church is the archtypal Christ.

I can think of no higher idolatry.

INDEED.

Thanks for your kind words though any keen eye is obviously not my doing but my Creator’s.

I challenge you to present a single post that says this. One, just one. Go ahead, prove our day.
