I'll stick with agreeing with the Holy Spirit in what He inspired in Scripture: *Mary, the mother of Jesus*.

Jesus was a boy, Mary had a boy child, Jesus was a carpenter, Mary was the mother of a carpenter, Jesus was God, Mary was the mother of God....pay attention.

You haven’t read Daniel 7 or Revelation with eyes on times and laws changing- it really makes a difference..

It won’t to Roman catholics

But again, that is why people are called to come out of Babylon.

What is Holy to Rome is not Holy to the Father..

And it isn’t an accident.

I admit Rome uses Torah template with December 25, January 1st and February 2nd for their Jesus’ birth, circumcision and presentation in the temple.

The Genuine Scripture and Creation proof shows another Jesus than what Rome teaches.
We were warned about false Christ’s and false teachers and other Jesuses and other gospels-
Rome has hit the mother load..

But it is sort of why I defend her when protestant daughters argue with her. They don’t have a problem with some of her lies so why nitpick...

Thankfully there is Truth and Commandments that trump Rome and her traditions
But one must stop being conformed to the world to even see it..

Most dont.

But that’s why today is His 4th Work Day, the 19th Day of His 10th month, to me.
It commemorates when He made the sun, Moon and stars are signs (used to know when He was really born) and appointed times (when the Father taught Israel to worship-hint the Father’s days are the Sons days, starting with His genuine birthday) and days and years..

But people are welcome to Thor’s day, pope gregory December 31, Rome’s new years eve..

I have been set free from all of it and have been blessed for it!!

Truth will set people free. People don’t know how enslaved they are..
Subtle, just how the enemy works..

Catholics haven't been distracted for 2,016 years, we're doing just fine, hank you.

Might want to read CCC 969 and reconcile the lie being taught by the RCC with John 14:6 and 1 Timothy 2:5 and then get back to me.

And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name Him Jesus. 32“He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David; 33and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and His kingdom will have no end.” 34Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I am a virgin?” 35The angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God. Luke 1:31-35 NASB

I think He's got it covered.

Uhhhh. No. The Catholics were the ones keeping God's Word under wraps. Wonder why the RCC hated the printing press so... and Gutenberg. Hmmm? How about Wycliffe? Tyndale? Hmmm? Thanks to THEM, the rest of the world was able to actually have and READ God's Word.... under threat of death by the Roman Catholic Church. Sounds like the RCC really wanted folks to have it, eh? Despite what you believe, the reason why the world has the Bible is The Reformation. Like it or not.

Yeah right...pretty funny...What percentage of the people on Earth could read in say the 1500's....a VERY small one as there was virtually no books that the average person could afford. Books were manuscripts, written by hand and mostly owned by libraries, governments, monasteries, wealthy families, and the like. The revolution did assist in the distribution of bibles, but the Catholic church insisted that ONLY true and accurate bibles could be distributed, not the readers digest edited and incorrect translations that came out of the revolution.

The Catholic church was then, and is now, the protector of the Christian faith, if you don't believe that, then just ask the 30,000 or so leaders of the various protestant denominations who is.

You may want to check your facts.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gutenberg_Bible

The Gutenberg Bible (also known as the 42-line Bible, the Mazarin Bible or the B42) was the first major book printed in the West using movable type. It marked the start of the “Gutenberg Revolution” and the age of the printed book in the West. Widely praised for its high aesthetic and artistic qualities,[1] the book has an iconic status. Written in Latin, the Gutenberg Bible is an edition of the Vulgate, printed by Johannes Gutenberg, in Mainz, in present-day Germany, in the 1450s.

Did the Catholic Church do anything to get the Word in the local languages? Nope

I also see you're touting the disproven 30k denomination claim. Sad.

The blessed relics of St. Charbel are in our neighborhood on Saturday, they will be hosted at a Maronite parish in Simi Valley. Then from there they will tour other churches in the Los Angeles area. We look forward to visiting them, a nice way to start the new year.

As the sons of the slave woman seek to do war with the sons of Mary, all the false manifestations of christian piety will be rocked to their core. The protestants cannot be counted upon to face the threat. Historically it has always been the true believers who have saved western civilization.

I wish all your people a blessing with the visit of the relics of St. Charbel.

Some of our parishioners are Lebanese, and Mrs. Aintrazi, who taught several of my children in religious education around the 7th grade, gave them pictures of St. Charbel and various shrines in Lebanon.

Say what as Catholic Europe is knuckling under.

have you read the Word?? He gave Mary to John. John was to take care of her.

Of course that's true. But the gospels were not written just to chit-chat about nice things that happened: "Isn't it nice that John took Mary in and cared for her?"

The gospels were written to teach us about OUR spiritual lives and the life of the Church. Therefore, when Jesus gives John to Mary as her son, and Mary to John as his mother, WE are being told about OUR relationship to Mary.

Say thanks to the Reformation that made the Word of God available to all.

If God can die for sins He can certainly be born to a mother for our salvation. To deny one reality is to be a hypocrite to the other.

Catholics have made Mary the focus when the only need for Mary was to give Jesus a human body...Jesus wasn't born to a mother for our salvation...Jesus died for our salvation...

Galatians 4:4-7 ©

When the appointed time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born a subject of the Law, to redeem the subjects of the Law and to enable us to be adopted as sons. The proof that you are sons is that God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts: the Spirit that cries, ‘Abba, Father’, and it is this that makes you a son, you are not a slave any more; and if God has made you son, then he has made you heir.

If we are heirs and sons as noted in the passage you cite why do catholics think they can lose their salvation?

This Reading has ties to the Gospel, which emphasizes Mary’s role in Christ's birth ("born of a woman")

That's hardly emphasizing Mary's role. It mentions he had a human mother without even naming her.
