Salvation, please is it necessary to post it all - are you making an assumption I don't know - or does bandwidth takes less precedence than you making a statement.

Christ was talking with the Pharisees who were putting their law above their actions/faith.

And you think you aren't doing the same thing - the catechism, church doctrine/traditions? GOD's WORD is good enough, the RCC needs to add with their do's and don't.

The Tradition of this sinless Mary Queen of Heaven, Queen of Purgatory, co redeemer, etc.,etc., has been passed down - it's the RCC's baby! You can wiggle from it but can't run from it - You own it.

That's not the Mary of the Bible. The RCC traditions totally opposes God's Word.

presently no screen name:
“The RCC traditions totally opposes God’s Word. “

John Calvin, A Harmony of Matthew, Mark and Luke
(St. Andrew’s Press, Edinburgh, 1972), p.32.

“To this day we cannot enjoy the blessing brought to us in Christ without thinking at the same time of that which God gave as adornment and honour to Mary, in willing her to be the mother of his only-begotten Son.”

How many times do Catholics need to tell you that WE gave you the Bible. Like it or not, that's the truth. Even Luther said so.....LOL!

"We are compelled to concede to the Papists
that they have the Word of God,
that we received it from them,
and that without them
we should have no knowledge of it at all."

~ Martin Luther

Nothing could be more clear.

So, RM, is Catholic-bashing allowed (or by some, encouraged)?

We seem to have left the confines of an academic debate of Mary’s status and just degenerated into the simple statement above.

I certainly don’t call for banning nor post deletion - just a clarification of the Religion Forum rules...
