Some day, I pray, that you will know who Mary is. She’ll introduce you to her son Jesus. Her “yes” to the Holy Spirit changed everything. There is no praise unworthy of Our Blessed Mother.

The Holy Spirit introduces us to Jesus.

He's the one who convicts of sin, righteousness, and judgment and draws mankind to God.

Why does the Catholic church usurp the Holy Spirit with Mary?

**The Holy Spirit introduces us to Jesus.**

Nope, at the moment of your death and the particular judgment, you meet Jesus.

What are you going to say to him when he asks you why you did not believe in his divinity as well as his humanity?

What are you going to say to him when he asks you why you never believed that his Mother gave birth to an infant, both human and divine?

Would not these be sins against the Holy Spirit, for Christ was conceived in Mary through the Holy Spirit?

And for what sin is there no forgiveness whatsoever? Answer: sins against the Holy Spirit.

If one would get down on their knees and pray the Rosary, one would understand. Our Blessed Mother always leads one to her Son. The Catholic Church holds the fullness of truth. Non-Catholic religions including evangelical Christianity have some partial truths, but they are a mere shell compared to Catholicism.

Sometimes when a person tries to convey the truth, it seems hurtful, but to allow someone to remain in their blissful “I’m saved no matter what I do” state is an awful thing.
