Errata: Adam AND Eve were, for a time, also immaculate.

You seem to be careful to refrain from using the term “Original Sin”.

Why is that?

[Grey182]

You’ve been doing this sort of thing for a long time, and undoubtedly received answers far more eloquent than I can (and have given you). Yet, you still do not open your heart to the Roman Tradition (as biblically instructed).

You have read my posts before. You know Our Lady is the bride of the Holy Spirit, that alone is the beginning of understanding. To accept a woman soiled by sin as the bride of God is unthinkable. Remember the offerings of Cain and Abel. Our Lady was an offering as bride to God, thus she must be utterly spotless.

May God open your eyes and heart to see and LOVE the Truth.

“Jesus could have inherited a flesh able to be tempted only if Mary had such a flesh.”

Please see my #180.

And my #181...😏

Spouse of the Holy Ghost.

Daughter of the Father.

Mother of God.

Quite a resume!

[MayflowerMadam]

Man, that post is 100% blasphemy.

[moonhawk]

No. I trust the Holy Spirit. The real one. The one whose message has never changed, or formed multiple churches.

I ignore the “teachings” of the sinners and false prophets both in and out of the Catholic church. There’s plenty to go around.

[moonhawk]

Does that include believers in false doctrines?

Not a rhetorical question.

[moonhawk]

And if there’s any truth in that, you should have stayed in the Church when you did so.

[metmom]

The term is not found in Scripture.

Man is born with a sin nature. Period.

ALL humans who have a human father.

[metmom]

Mary is NOT the bride of God.

the most the Holy Spirit refers to her as in Scripture is “mother of Jesus”.

All the other fabrications invented by Catholicism are nothing more than wishful thinking in an attempt to deify Mary.

[metmom]

Depends which false doctrines and who is determining which doctrines.

If it’s something Catholicism decides is a false doctrine over something they invented, then it’s irrelevant.

If it concerns the deity of Christ and the plan of redemption, then wrong doctrines do not translate into believers.

If it involves what Paul refers to as disputable matters as in Romans 14, then it doesn’t matter.

[MHGinTN]

Sorry, read both posrts. I’m not into Magic Thinking, which in terms of Christianity is the category of man imagined dogma. I leave you to your floundering, which you appear to believe is settling on truth ... it is not truth because the Word of God does not support the imaginings. You don’t appear to even comprehend what Adam and Eve lost in the Garden. I can’t help you. May God have mercy upon you.

[Mark17]

All the other fabrications invented by Catholicism are nothing more than wishful thinking in an attempt to deify Mary.

Like Semiramis?

[MHGinTN]

Don’t expect the deceived to begin to see the truth. Was it Twain that said it is harder to convince a deceived person that they are deceived than it is to deceive them?

[Elsie]

I’m still confused as it’s kinda hard to read what was on your mind from here.

[Elsie]

but the Blessed Mother and St. John the baptist share a common dignity of being born free from original sin,

Repeating it doesn't make it any more true.

You guys just CANNOT spout this stuff and expect to be taken seriously.

At Lourdes, the Blessed Virgin Mary said: I am the Immaculate Conception.

Lots of straw grasping going on here!

---

On 25th March 1858, the day of the sixteenth apparition, Bernadette asked the “Lady” her name.

The “Lady” replied in the local dialect: “Que soy era Immaculada Counceptiou”, which means “I am the Immaculate Conception”.

 

The Immaculate Conception is “Mary conceived without sin, by the merits of the Cross of Christ” (definition of the dogma promulgated in 1854).

 

Bernadette went to see the Parish priest straight away to give him the name of the “Lady”.

He then realized it was the Mother of God who was appearing in the Grotto.

Later, Mgr Laurence, Bishop of Tarbes, authenticated this revelation.
