Wow! Christ chose His mother? Is this another anti-Scriptural error Rome is concocting to beguile those who don't read the Bible?

Fascinating. Calvinists would have us believe that they personally were chosen for salvation before the end of the world, yet the Calvinist Mary was picked at random out of the Nazarene phone book, or was the 20 millionth account in the Jewish Facebook venture of 2000 years ago.

You people are funny. I shall post the word of God to combat Calvinist claptrap.

Luke 1: 26 10 In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary.

How did Gabriel know to come to Mary? Or was he just kinda wandering around and saw her sunbathing in the back yard?

Christ did not choose Mary.

This isn’t the first time Roman Catholics do not understand the Trinity, nor the word of God.

Sadly, it won’t be the last.

Luke says Gabriel was sent from God. Would that be God, the Father, or God, the Son or God, the Holy Ghost? How do you know?

Mary was chosen based on a Palestinian 7-11 winning Lotto ticket, but the "elect" God knew from before the foundation of the world... :) Calvinism would be hit on any Japanese game show.

Mark did God the Father die on the cross? Did God die at all?
