The reason for this article is to determine if the worship/veneration given to Mary by the catholic church is justified from a Biblical perspective. This will be evaluated using the Biblical standard and not man’s standard.

Just as I have asked a number of professed ex-Catholics that make the erroneous claim that Catholic worship Mary: Then get rid of your Mary images.

John 6:28-29
Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?
Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."
1 John 3:21-23
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.
And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.
James 1:27
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

I have dealt with more than enough ignorance today. If I feel up to it I will deal with more prot drivel tomorrow. Mary is dead.
Wafers are worthless
Jewel encrusted bones are WORTHY of adoration, veneration and RESPECT.

I was nodding off last night and as a result posted a poorly worded statement, which I would have deleted if that were an option. You've been on FR 10 years and do NOT know that's an option?
I guess if Tery was ignorant about how to post to more than one person; this is understandable as well.
Merely press the ABUSE tab and tell the mod on duty why to delete your reply.

My point is that some documents, including documents from Popes and Saints, contain statements that are not in accord with Catholic doctrine.
WHAT?!
I'd bet BIG money that they would be the LAST folks on earth to be POORLY CATECHIZED!!!

I could, but I don't want to pray alone.Jesus thought otherwise...
Matthew 6: 5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

Saint So-and-so; who may or not be poorly catechized; please pray for me in this manner; as Jesus alone may reject my plea.

Post away in this forum. The only good posts are measured in facts, insights and logic. Degrees never trump truth. Go for it and ignore criticism.

Well, this is a puzzle, then, for, if a nation, Israel has had no continuous existence, and could not observe this perpetually; and if a faith community,is He commanding Israel to observe perpetually the foreshadowing, but not the reality which these signs foretold?

I’ve met a great many people with advanced degrees who are fools. The Bible was written almost entirely by those without advanced degrees or status - other than a calling from God to tell forth His truth.

Israel was NOT a ‘nation’ when the degree came from Heaven.
