moses successors is not the same as God losing headship over His people - God is still head and has always been head over His people - Colossians 1:18 was written after the crucifixion and also after peter's death - no way around who is and was and will continue to be head
Christ is the head of the church
But he ascended to heaven appointed peter to administer his kingdom until he returns
No king administers his own kingdom
Isa 22:21-22 matt 16:18-19

Example of Joseph under pharaoh administers the kingdom and his brothers obeyed and submitted to him. Gen 37

Gen 37:7 For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.

8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.

9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.

Obedience to Joseph is obedience to pharaoh!

Obedience to Peter and the Apostles is obedience to Christ!
 
Lk 1:45 no one more faithful in believing and doing Gods will than Mary


Mary made worthy in the immaculate conception to receive grace the HS and the savior and our salvation

Notice how Christ died for us!

Romans 5:8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

We were not worthy to die for our own salvation!

The same applies to grace, we are not worthy to receive grace, so God made Mary by the immaculate conception worthy to receive all grace for us, and worthy to miraculously conceive of the Holy Spirit and to give birth to our savior and worthy to receive our salvation!

Lk 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Lk 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

Lk 2:30 I have seen my salvation.

Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Lk 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

This applies to Mary not by nature but by the power and will of God!


Mediatrix does not make Mary the mediator or violate 1 Tim 2:5
Anyone who is in the communion of saints is in union and may pray and make intercession for one another! Rev 5:8
All graces come by Jesus Christ Jn 1:16-17 and Jesus came thru Mary,
matt 1:23 so all graces come thru Mary!
Mary is full of grace the throne of divine grace! Heb 4:16
All generations shall call me blessed!
Lk 1:48

Blessed be the great Mother of God, Mary most Holy.
Blessed be her Holy and Immaculate Conception.
Blessed be her Glorious Assumption.
Blessed be the name of Mary, ever Virgin and Mother.

Blessed be God in His Angels and in His Saints. Amen.

Praise of Mary & the saints ends in God!
All merits, graces, and virtues of Mary come from God & Christ!

1 Corinthians 4:7
For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

2 Thessalonians 1:10
When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe…

No one believed more than Mary! Lk 1:45

Co-redemptrix
Eve a Virgin by the communication of a fallen angel cooperated in the fall of man, the first Adam, gen 3 and it is fitting that Mary a Virgin by the communication of a good angel should cooperate in the redemption of man, the new Adam! Lk 1:28-38

Advocate
Mary help of Christians, pray for us!
Mary is the advocate of Christians because she is our spiritual mother. Jn 19:26-27 rev 12:17
Her intercession is great charity, for even before she is asked she sees a need and fills it. John 2:3 they have no wine, and Christ honors his mother, and never refuses her prayers, and because of her powerful intercession the newlyweds were spared Shame, and His disciples believed. Jn 2:10-11

Old Testament type or example provided by God for our instruction!

Queen Esther

Queen Esther fair: est 2:7
Mary all fair: gen 3:15 Song of Solomon 4:12 Lk 1:28 rev 12:1

And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; est 2:17
Song of S. 4:2 love of God for Mary!
And the angel entered to her, and said, Hail Mary, full of grace; the Lord is with thee; blessed be thou among women.
Lk 1:28 also Lk 1:30 1:42 1:45 1:48
Mary obtained grace and favor: Lk 1:28
Hebrews 4:16
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Esther merits the graces of the king for the people. Est
Mary merits the graces we need but don’t deserve. Lk 1:30
Mother is the mother of our savior and our salvation! Lk 2:30 matt 1:21

They prayed to Esther to intercede for them before the king. As Mary intercedes for Christians before God.

Queen Esther found favor with the king: est 2:17
Mary found favor with God: Lk 1:30

Queen Esther saves her people interceding with the king: est 8:17
Mary provides the savior of the world!
Lk 2:10-11

Queen Esther receives half the kingdom!
Mary receives half the kingdom, Christ retains the kingdom of justice as just judge and Mary is the queen of grace & mercy! Hence the throne of grace is Mary’s throne! Heb 4:16
Depicted in genesis as the greater light that rules the day (those living in God’s will) and the lesser light that governs the night (those living in sin) Mary the mother of mercy and refuge of sinners!
Notice the sun is the source of all good and moon only reflects this goodness!
She directs all to Her divine son! Jn 2:5


Mary is created by God thru the immaculate conception worthy to receive grace, and the miraculous conception of the Holy Spirit, and the savior and our salvation!

Notice how Christ died for us!

Romans 5:8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

We were not worthy to die for our own salvation!

The same applies to grace, we are not worthy to receive grace, so God made Mary by the immaculate conception worthy to receive all grace for us, and worthy to miraculously conceive of the Holy Spirit and to give birth to our savior and worthy to receive our salvation!

Lk 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

Lk 2:30 I have seen my salvation.

Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Lk 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

God will not give grace to one who is not worthy or who cannot receive it, God will not give graces only to be lost or wasted but must be Efficacious!

All graces are merited by Christ (Jn 1:16-17 1 Jn 1:7) and given to men in the immaculate conception, (Lk 1:28 Lk 1:49 Heb 4:16 until we are able thru baptism (Jn 3:5) to receive them!

Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Mary had this faith for us, (Lk 1:45 )and became the mother of our salvation!
(Lk 2:30)

Romans 3:24
Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Just as redemption is held in Christ so grace is held on Mary! Lk 1:28 full of grace Heb 4:16 the throne of grace Lk 1:30 found favor of our salvation

This applies to Mary not by nature but by the power and will of God!

A good tree!

Matthew 7:18
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

The fruit of the tree of Mary is our salvation! Lk 2:30 Jesus is our salvation!
Lk 1:30 Mary found our salvation!

Queen of heaven
In the line of david’s kingdom the mother of the king is always queen!
Jesus is king Lk 1:32-33
And Jesus is the king of heaven & earth & all the angels & saints, so Mary is queen of heaven & earth & all the angels & saints!

A Royal greeting!

Lk 1:28 is the only place in the Bible where such a greeting takes place!
Mary is of the tribe of Judah and the royal house of David the king!

God himself is greeting Mary thru the instrument of the angel Gabriel!

This is a Royal greeting of the queen of heaven and earth! Queen of the angels and saints! Mary is of the house of king David!

In the line of king David the mother of the king is the queen, as Jesus Christ is the king of heaven and earth and the angels and saints so Mary is the queen of the same! Lk 1:32-33

Lk 1:28 And the angel entered to her, and said, Hail, full of grace; the Lord is with thee; blessed be thou among women.
29 And when she had heard, she was troubled in his word, and thought what manner salutation this was.
30 And the angel said to her, Dread thou not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.

Mary is queen in rev 12:1 and heb 4:16
Mother of divine grace who is the throne of divine grace!
Regarding the Communion of Saints and the intercession of anyone on our behalf:

God only is omnipresent.
Do you believe EVERYONE in heaven is omnipresent since they can all hear our prayers?
 
Lk 1:45 no one more faithful in believing and doing Gods will than Mary

like i said - mary mary mary peter peter peter pope pope pope - that is why God worshippers turn away from reverencing man - the scriptures you quote say something far different than what you claim - especially in context

why don't you sincerely and privately ask God to reveal to you the truth about your religion that promotes everyone but God and Messiah - you have so little to say about both God and Messiah - it's so distasteful to God lover's - it is pagan style behavior as for_his_glory points out - pagans look to anyone but God almighty and His Messiah - this is how your posts read - look at the zero mention God gets compared to mary peter pope

Mary is queen in rev 12:1 and heb 4:16
Mother of divine grace who is the throne of divine grace!
she is none of that - if she wasn't spoken of by God Messiah apostles directly and clearly like others were mentioned then taking unclear passages about israel Messiah God-lovers etc is not convincing -

think about how everyone else is clearly pronounced except peter and mary and popes? - God is clear about everyone but your 3 favorite people? - your 3 favorite people have to usurp scriptures about others to find a position in God's church? - God didn't give mary peter popes any legit position over God's people - God alone remains King and Head of the body
 
Christ is the head of the church
But he ascended to heaven appointed peter to administer his kingdom until he returns
No king administers his own kingdom
Isa 22:21-22 matt 16:18-19

Example of Joseph under pharaoh administers the kingdom and his brothers obeyed and submitted to him. Gen 37

Gen 37:7 For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.

8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.

9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.

Obedience to Joseph is obedience to pharaoh!

Obedience to Peter and the Apostles is obedience to Christ!
no it's not - God needs no intermediary since He is near to any who call on His name - Psalm 145:18 - Hebrews 4:15-16 - Colossians 1:18
 
you keep putting peter into Messiah's place - those scriptures are about Messiah not peter - it's so strange that you keep revering peter mary pope saints but never God -

how can you think God worshippers would ever fall for rcc being the true religion when God really has only a brief mention by popes and adherents like you and you and popes go on and on ad nauseum about mary and peter as Messiah's replacements

look at all your posts - you have so much to say about mary mary mary peter peter peter popes popes popes - where are your posts about God God God? no where - God is no where - Messiah is no where - God and Messiah have no prominent position in your religion and you want us to believe you are the true religion? - :shrug :shrug

Peter is already administering the kingdom

Already acting in the person of Christ even acting as mediator

It is Jesus Christ who identifies peter with himself!

Matt 17:24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?

26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.

27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

It is Jesus Christ who identifies peter with himself!

Jesus Christ gives the keys of the kingdom to peter matt 16:18-19 making him prime minister applying Isa 22:21-22 to peter

It’s Christ who does this not me

All praise veneration and honor given to mary and the saints redounds to God
They are what God made them
All this terminates in God and Christ who merited the grace in the first place
They are what they are by God’s power and grace! Lk 1:49
He that is mighty (God) has done great things to me

Glory to God on the highest and to Jesus Christ our salvation!

Christ the king!

The king of kings!

Christ is King of Glory!

Kingdom established by God!
Isa 2:2
Dan 2: 44
Micah 4:1
One, holy, catholic, (universal) and apostolic! And all nations and all people shall flow into it! All must submit and obey the king of glory!

Christ is the king!

Lk 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Lk 2:10-11 all people!

Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Matt 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Matt 21:43 Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, (old covenant Israel) and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. (The new covenant church) Jn 15:1-5

Where does it say the holy catholic church or any other type of church in those scriptures? You are trying to make the scriptures fit what you say instead of what is actually written and it's just not there.
 
Lk 1: 28 And the angel entered to her, and said, Hail, full of grace; the Lord is with thee; blessed be thou among women.

Notice how Christ died for us!

As i see it that verse is saying blessed be the one in the womb. The Lord who is favoured and full of grace is in the womb through the woman, blessed is he.

Jesus does directly say in scripture to ackowledge and always give rememberance to a woman, the one who annointed him with oil, but who ackowledges what Jesus says. Where is her memorial?.

Christ is the head of the church
But he ascended to heaven appointed peter to administer his kingdom until he returns
No king administers his own kingdom
Isa 22:21-22 matt 16:18-19

Jesus never appointed Peter to administer His kingdom.


Jesus appointed His Apostles to serve the Church, and teach their disciples what Christ taught them.


And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. Matthew 28:18-20



Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. 2 John 9



Jesus never taught His people to:


Pray to Mary
Build a Vatican City in Rome and gather unimaginable wealth
Make statues of dead saints and pray to them
Have a Pope or Cardinals ruling in wealth from Rome
Wear costumes
Take money from people to get them out of purgatory (indulgences)


And the list of things that are against Christ’s doctrine goes on….

That's not a good enough answer.
You should read post no. 208 again.
I don't think you understood my reply...which was:

Regarding the Communion of Saints and the intercession of anyone on our behalf:

God only is omnipresent.

Do you believe EVERYONE in heaven is omnipresent since they can all hear our prayers?

Only God is omnipresent.
Only God can hear prayer....even satan is not omnipresent and thus cannot be everywhere at once.

So if only God is omnipresent:
HOW would those persons that are in heaven be able to hear OUR prayers to them?

See?

There have always been popes and underlings to rule the church - from the beginning.
Pope was a name given to the authority figure in Rome, Constantinople, Alexandria, Jerusalem and Antioch.
These were the top figures in the early church....from the end of the first century.

Since the other "popes" looked to Rome for guidance, it was decided in about the 500 or 600's (can't remember) to call ONLY the "pope" in Rome by this title.
So there was always a Pope and "cardinals" although they weren't called that.
Cardinal means a major person in any institution or business that makes that institution function.
These, I'm sure you'll agree, have existed from the beginning .... James and Peter being two of them...and Paul, of course.
I'd say that all the Apostles that were sent out were what we could call "cardinals". (Matthew 28)

As to the "costumes" they wear, the colors have a specific meaning.

As to the other doctrine on your list, I agree that none of it is biblical.
 
Bible you have been a member here since Feb 22, 2021 and all you have done is promote the RCC as being the only true church of Christ, but yet put God and Jesus on a backburner as you promote Peter as the first Pope and Mary the Queen of heaven as the Mother of God.

What I am about to present to you and everyone is a bit lengthy, but I pray you take the time to read this in it's entirely.
Here is the foundation of the RCC and the paganism within.
I have learned much here too, many wise men of biblical understanding

Praise of Mary and the saints redounds to the glory of God and Christ, co Mary and the saints are what God made them, it is His handiwork (Lk 1:49 Lk 1:28) and the graces they have come from the merits of Christ’s passion and death

Likewise an Attack on Mary and the saints, or the authority of the apostles or the church or rejection of such doctrines is and attack on God and on Christ!
Acts 9:4 Jude 1:3
