Sirach 24
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
24 I am the mother of fair love, and of fear, and of knowledge, and of holy hope.
25 In me is all grace of the way and of the truth, in me is all hope of life and of virtue.
26 Come over to me, all ye that desire me, and be filled with my fruits.
27 For my spirit is sweet above honey, and my inheritance above honey and the honeycomb.
28 My memory is unto everlasting generations.
(I know this scripture is deleted by the tradition of men in the KJV)
The Dove, & rainbow signs of peace are types of Mary mother of our salvation who obtained peace for all men!
Song of Solomon 1:2
Smelling sweet of the best ointments. Thy name is as oil poured out: therefore young maidens have loved thee.
Oil heals and fuels the flame, and is the fruit of the olive (peace) so the name of Mary is our peace, and healing, and fire of divine love!
Mary all powerful advocate!
Help of Christian’s!
Mary ever virgin, mother of God, is all powerful in her prayers!
Mary’s prayers are all powerful not cos she is God but because her son is God!
and on becoming man He (Jesus) obeyed his own commandments
you might check out the one that says “honor Thy father and mother”
“My hour has not come”
The time set by almighty God for the public ministry of Christ had not come, Jesus Christ still performed the miracle cos his mother interceded, thus a higher law, “honor thy father and mother” if ANYONE else asked it would NOT have been done!
John 2
and cos of her intercession the disciples believed in Him!
Jn 2:11
There is another point that Jesus is making when he says: what does it have to do with you and me? My hour hath not yet come. Indicating that when it does come Mary will have a prominent role to play. See Lk 2:35
The Catholic denomination has you believe all kinds of false information about Mary, so you write one lengthy post after another about unScriptural doctrine. It is a false glorification of a teenager who was chosen by God to give birth to His Son in human form. Nothing more.
She, along with Joseph, did a
fair job of raising Him, but they did lose track of Him for three days. Luke 2:41-46, "Now every year his parents went to Jerusalem for the festival of the Passover. And when he was twelve years old, they went up as usual for the festival. When the festival was ended and they started to return, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem,
but his parents were unaware of this.
Assuming that he was in the group of travelers, they went a day’s journey. Then they started to look for him among their relatives and friends. When they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem to search for him. After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions."
You exalt Mary way, way beyond who she really was. What were Jesus' thoughts about His mother? Matthew 12:46-50, " While he was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers were standing outside, wanting to speak to him. Someone told him, “Look, your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.” But to the one who had told him this, Jesus replied, “
Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?”
And pointing to his disciples, he said, “
Here are my mother and my brothers! For
whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” (BTW, this proves that Mary was not "ever virgin".)
I won't discuss the rest of your contrived doctrine, but I will respond to this:
a) Mary ever virgin, mother of God, is all powerful in her prayers!
There is nothing in the Bible that says this. She was just another person chosen for a task.
b) Mary’s prayers are all powerful not cos [sic] she is God but because her son is God!
There is nothing in God's word that says that Mary's prayers are more powerful than anyone else's.
The whole Catholic doctrine of Mary is fabricated! It sets a false standard about womanhood, which no woman can possibly live up to. It subjects them to humiliation and worse when they fail to meet the unreal, mythical standard. Do some research into "marianismo".
