I am responsible for testifying of the truth, surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses. I am not responsible when hardened hearts reject the truth. The scripture is clear.

1. Mary is the virgin of Israel.
2. Mary's son Jesus is the Messiah and "God with us."
3. The mother of Jesus is Mary.
4. Mary is Jesus' mother.
5. Jesus' mother is Mary.
6. The mother of Emmanuel is Mary.
7. Emmanuel's mother is Mary.
8. The mother of "God with us" is Mary.
9. Mary is the mother of "God with us" and blessed.

“The scripture is clear.”
You are so right and it does NOT contain any of the following truths.

“Devotion to you, O Blessed Virgin, is a means of salvation which God gives to those whom he wishes to save.” -Saint John Damascene, Father and Doctor of the Church, 676-787 AD

”It is impossible to save one’s soul without devotion to Mary and without her protection.” -Saint Anselm, Archbishop and Doctor of the Church, 1033-1109 AD

”Not only do they offend thee, O Lady, who outrage thee, but thou art also offended by those who neglect to ask thy favors . . . He who neglects the service of the Blessed Virgin will die in his sins . . . He who does not invoke thee, O Lady, will never get to Heaven . . . Not only will those from whom Mary turns her countenance not be saved, but there will be no hope of their salvation . . . No one can be saved without the protection of Mary.” -Saint Bonaventure, Cardinal-Bishop and Doctor of the Church, 1221-1274 AD

If you believe any of these statements then you are left to this Scripture of Truth.

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
