I still say this infatuation for some of the “men”..Popes and Bishops alike....who many are celibate...use Mary as an alternative to the lack of not having a woman in their life 'affectionately' theirs. She's the surrogate and why some of their writings are so mushy and sicky sweet. They are more like a man oozing over the woman he loves than that of worshiping for ones greatness....just too romantically stated.
Well, Jesus said to HEAR and OBEY. They deliberately disobeyed. They will meet their Creator but with the ‘Mary, I’m yours’ means he doesn’t belong to Jesus. All those words to Mary, they associated themselves with deception - I hardly call that Hear and Obey. As His Word states, many will enter the wide gate to destruction and only a few find the narrow road to life.
His Word is there for everyone to read/see/hear and obey. When they don’t place God, HIS WORD alone number #1 in their life, how can they follow HIM, have a relationship with HIM? Who will hear, ‘Depart from Me, I never knew you’. They don’t take God’s Word seriously. They have/had a better way - man made heresy teachings.
