What a contrast...

We argue for Jesus and use Scripture.

They argue for Mary and use tradition.

Jesus said that if HE is lifted up, HE will draw all men to Himself. The Holy Spirit is the one who directs all attention to Jesus.

It’s all about Jesus and only about Jesus. Nothing else and nobody else is relevant.

—We argue for Jesus and use Scripture.—

So do Catholics, but we don’t ignore the Church that Christ founded, “the pillar and foundation of truth.” Shouldn’t we take our disagreements “to the church,” as Jesus commands in Scripture? What did He say about those who won’t listen to the Church?

Protestants rarely if ever mention these passages of scripture, perhaps because they contradict the traditions of men like Martin Luther.
