No, my kids don’t belong to me. They belong to God who gave them to me. I was given the privilege of being entrusted to be their mother and raise them.
Mary did not produce Jesus of her own accord or decision. He came to earth of His own decision and of his own accord. Nobody has control over Jesus.
Virtually all of Rome’s teachings about Mary have ZERO Scriptural substantiation. They are the vain imaginings of men.
Scripture was recognized as such long before the RCC came along and gave its stamp of approval to it, as if the Word of God needed the validation of men. It’s the height of arrogance for the Catholic church to take credit for the work of God. God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble.
Taking credit and glory due to God alone isn’t going to end any better for Catholics than it did for Herod in Acts 12.
“No, my kids dont belong to me.”
Exactly, but if you’re a good mother you offer them up to the Lord for His purposes and His will. Mary did.
Nobody has control over Jesus.
The Father did. With Jesus, it was always about doing the will of the Father.
