Dang. Long prayer. Lots of repetition. Reminds me of Jesus’ words in Matthew 6:7:

“And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.”

I agree with the comment above mine. Jesus above all. Jesus alone is our Savior. There is no “co-mediatrix.”

These phrases aren’t empty.

BINGO. OUR LONE INTERCESSOR is Jesus Christ. Not Mary.

RC, always looking at their work, appealing to Mary, to earn blessing and steer the will of God.

So man centered. So far from God centeredness. So sad.

BUT, i still have faith that some will be saved by God’s mercy through HIS predestination and HIS will alone. Dats the only way. The dead do not raise themselves by their own works or calling on a false god to appeal for them.
