Or rather a very wrong turn
at the Vatican Cult's beginning
about 1600 years ago.

Our Lady of Perpetual HelpO Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke thy most powerful name, which is the safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O Purest Mary, O Sweetest Mary, let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me whenever I call on thee, for, in all my needs, in all my temptations I shall never cease to call on thee, ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary, Mary.
O what consolation, what sweetness, what confidence, what emotion fill my soul when I pronounce thy sacred name, or even only think of thee. I thank God for having given thee, for my good, so sweet, so powerful, so lovely a name. But I will not be content with merely pronouncing thy name: let my love for thee prompt me ever to hail thee, Mother of Perpetual Help.
Mary is the mother of God, Quix. You wouldn’t have been able to walk a block in her shoes. Nor could have I.
The statistics indicate that the teaching is not working.
And, of course, from where I sit . . . I’m not impressed with the vast bulk of what the Magicsterical teaches.
What you cited seems more than a LOT naive, to me.
ASSUMING such a thing for mortals . . . is . . . actually . . . beyond naive . . . preposterous.
Here's the title:
And it carries the official sanctions of:
ni•hil ob•stat
n.
1. Roman Catholic Church An attestation by a church censor that a book contains nothing damaging to faith or morals.
2. Official approval, especially of an artistic work.
WITH RICHARD CARDINAL CUSHING’S IMPRIMATUR
Let me track down the brief portion of quotes upthread . . .
Here they are:
However, as we've seen through a variety of sources--a pile of them in Ferraro's manual about the Rosary--the Roman Catholic et al/Vatican Edifice disagrees with a lot of the claims of RC's hereon to the contrary.
p.32
.
[Quixicated emphases below]
Mary is crowned Queen of heaven and earth, dispenser of all graces . . .
p32
4 - She became Queen of Purgatory, where she exercises her power as mediatrix in behalf of these suffering souls.
5 - She became Queen of us sinners, to assist us through the dangers of this life and to help us in difficulties.
6 - She became the ruler of hell, that trembles at her slightest gaze and is defeated by her power.
"Just as a rock extracted from earth will precipitate into the abyss, so will man, left without Mary's help, quickly slide toward hell." --Richard of St Victor
p37
Sacred Heart of Jesus, Thy kingdom come; Thy kingdom come through Mary! --Partial Indulgence
p41
"Mary is the tree of life to those who grasp her, and he is happy who hold her fast." --Prov. 3:18
p43
1 - "Hail Mary, beloved daughter of the Father, Mother of the Divine Son, Spouse of the Holy Spirit, complement of the most august Trinity!"
p45
6 - To her was granted grace greater than that conferred upon all others, 'that she might vanquish sin in every respect.'
.
[Qx: I guess Christ's vanquishing sin was unnecessary--or ineffectual without Mary's assistance?]
p46
7 - "Mary is the dawn of God because, just as the dawn marks the end of darkness and the beginning of day, so Mary indicates the end of vices and the beginning of virtue."
.
[Qx: I guess Christ's conquering on The Cross and HIS conquering trip to hell were unncessary?]
9 - God loved Mary so much that He gave her the keys to His heart. 'No one can go to God without Mary drawing him.'
.
[Qx: I guess Holy Spirit has been relegated to a 'Walter Mitty' role as spouse of Mary? That's SOME POWER to cancel & take over HOLY SPIRIT'S role to draw men to God!]
p47
4 - "Mary, trusting in the word of the angel, destroyed the sin Eve committed by trusting in the serpent.'
.
[Qx: Evidently, she beat Christ to the job of vanquishing sin!]
5 - "She desired the safety of everyone, went in search of it, and obtained it; it was also through her that this salvation was wrought."
.
[QX: What an unnecessary waste of precious Blood and suffering on THE CROSS!!!/sar]
p47
10 - "As Noah's Ark saved all the animals that entered it, so Mary saves all the souls that entrust themselves to her care."
p50
8 - "If she were not so holy as she is, how could God appoint her to be the ladder of Paradise, the advocate of the world, meatrix between HIm and us?"
p50
4 - "By becoming Mother of God, Mary belongs to the order of hypostatic union; hence she participates IN the infinite sanctity of God."
Proddys can't hear such protestations so contrary to facts we observe so constantly in our associations with RC's face to face--and the outrageous proofs to the contrary 24/7/365 by sooooooooooooo many duplicitous Vatican Cult members on FR!
Sounds like Jesus would have to elbow Ishtar-Mary out of the picture to be considered at all!
What horrific idolatrous blasphemy.
Wow, pictures from your family album, huh?
NOPE.
Y’all’s concocted twisted and distorted Ishtar-Mary caricature of the authentic Mary is a farce beginning to end.
The Authentic Mary was
NOT
the mother of Almighty God as y’all’s cleverly
!!!!DEMANDED!!!! term tries to propagandized folks into sleep-walking into accepting—with full overt denials, of course—just like the globalist, Communist and Nazi propagandists were so glibly given to doing . . . deny deny deny . . . while shoveling all the greater abundances of the very thing denied—down the throats—down the minds of the sheeple.
Hideous.
You are probably right about one thing.
I doubt Holy Spirit would have impregnated me for any reason.
NOPE . . . the Vatican Cults’ family album.
Mary's name is "most powerful" and is the "safeguard of the living" and "the salvation of the dying?"
This prayer could have just as probably been offered to Jesus.
No, they’re definitely yours.
“Mary’s name is “most powerful””
She is the most powerful saint.
“and is the “safeguard of the living” and “the salvation of the dying?” “
Yep. Think of the rosary - Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.”
Her intercession is very powerful - she is the most powerful saint again - and so her intercession helps us receive the grace we need from Christ to preserve us in life and to help us at the hour of death to be repentent before God.
“This prayer could have just as probably been offered to Jesus.”
And Jesus could just as easily have redeemed us without dying. He chose a way that demonstrated His love. Jesus uses Mary out of love as well - just as He uses us.
INDEED.
