I heard mary became a prostitute after the birth of Jesus to support the family because Joseph left her. I know this MUST be true because scripture does not tell me otherwise..
We can not build our faith or doctrine on scriptural silence
What we know is scripture informs us on the character and nature of God and his works.. no where in scripture is there any type shown where God inflicted pain on someone to show his love for them
The whole stigmata thing is satanic because it demeans the work of Christ, making it seem ordinary ... and not worthy of salvation of men .
That does not glorify God.. but the man claiming the stigmata
lol. Amen, Mom. Teach them how to discern the Scriptural truth. Maybe it will stick.
