"What, me worship? I venerate."

She doesn’t have sin. She seeks a savior because of her humility.
Mary was a Jewish mother.
Among other things.
You are no expert. In the Jewish faith, childbirth rendered a woman unpure. She needed to undergo purification to reenter the temple. Go check your religious facts before making accusations.
That’s not what you asked.
At the end of the Gospel of Mathew, why in the great commission is mentioned Father,Son,and Holy Spirit?
What do you think?
Do you somehow know where She's buried?
So you are saying Mary was unpure. I’ll take that. Nowhere is Scripture does it say she was sinless. Period. Scripture does say all have sinned. Not all except Mary. You can base your belief system on whatever you want but there is no basis in Scripture for any of this.
Why pray to Mary when you can pray to God? Who are you talking to when you pray the Hail Mary? I pray to God. Here is what Jesus recommended:
"Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil
At no point did Jesus instruct his disciples to pray to his mom to get a back stage pass to the Big Guy. Unless I misread scripture, and I'm sure you'll point to the exact passage if I've missed it.
i don’t know where billions of people are buried. Does that mean every o e of them was assumed into Heaven? You can do better than that
This is why I don’t like to debate religion, everyone has their own “expert”. I just put more trust in St. Jerome’s translation than in anything Strong put together.
May God be with you in
your own personal trials.

Do you believe St Michael sinned?
capitalizing Mary’s pronouns - another custom reserved for divinity applied to Mary
No replies.
That shut em up.
No i was responding to your comment of why the paid the temple for purification. I never used the word sin.
There was a similar thread around Easter I found offensive to Catholics.
So all you know is that the Mother of God sinned, but you can’t name any of Her sin(s), and that Mary was not assumed into Heaven.
Is that right?
Of course I believe in angel they are documented in scripture. Only some of them sinned the others did not. There is no evidence that those who sinned are offered a savior or salvation. In fact scripture suggests they are not, they have made their choice. The offer of salvation through Christ is offered only to mankind in the Bible. If there is anything for angels we are not told about it.
Look who’s talking about capitalizing!

Sorry, I must have missed where in the great commission it mentions praying to Mary.
