I dunno. That “Jesus toast” looked pretty real.

But, truth be told, I thought it looked more like Jerry Garcia without glasses.

Hebrews

1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

For instance here in America only the Lady Guaalupe

Long distance to go to bash Mary.

When the term “worship Mary” is substituted for the proper term “venerate Mary” then the author has an agenda.

And that agenda does NOT include enlightenment.

What is an interesting exercise is to read, within context, every scripture where Jesus addresses or speaks of Mary.

It’s kind of an eye opener.

The comeback is too easy and too obvious.

The Angel demonstrated to the children the fervent, attentive, and composed manner in which we should all pray, and the reverence we should show toward God in prayer

It was an Alien and the little kids were illiterate peasants.

We should not, as a culture, expect illiterate peasants to correctly relay the words of Aliens.

Trust me pastors don’t live high on the hog (normal ones anyway). They almost always have another job, frequently full time. Priests have it better that way.

But if you want that Mary thing off your back, yeah, time to convert. :)

Bible trivia: what are the last words we see in the Bible of Mary (not her last appearance)?

This one is kinda tough. It really depends on how one interpret’s Johns vision in revelation.

Why is it always Jesus or Mary?

It’s never Peter, Paul or John.

It’s never Moses or Abraham.

It’s never King Ferdinand, Queen Isabella or Leonardo DaVinci, either...............

I always find them funny because there were no cameras in Jesus’ day, there are no paintings of him from those who actually saw him, and there is very little in the bible regarding his physical appearance.

Those paintings of “Jesus” kinda crack me up. If I’m to believe what Paul said about the culture at the time (and I do), Jesus was probably clean shaven and had short hair.

And no, I don’t believe the devil has horns and a tail either. :-)
