Catholics can claim they think the painting is "bad theology but their Popes disagree...
Leo XIII, Jucunda Semper, 1894:
"When Mary offered herself completely to God together with her Son in the temple, she was already
sharing with him the painful atonement on behalf of the human race ... (at the foot of cross) she willingly offered him up to the divine justice, dying with him in her heart, pierced by the sword of sorrow."
Pius X, Ad Diem Illum, 1904
"Owing to the union of suffering and purpose existing between Christ and Mary, she merited to become most worthily the
reparatrix of the lost world, and for this reason, the dispenser of ALL favors which Jesus acquired for us by his death . . .
Mary is not the dispenser of "all favors"!
Lie from hell!
Ephesians 4:7-8 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive,
and gave gifts unto men.
Mary did not share in our atonement!
She sorrowed and her heart felt the pain of His death but there is not a single scripture to suggest she obtained or share in our salvation.
That is the lowest lie of all.
Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had
by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;
Benedict XV, Inter Sodalicia, 1918
"To such extent did Mary suffer and almost die with her suffering and dying Son; to such extent did she surrender her maternal rights over her Son for : man's salvation . .
that we may rightly say she redeemed the human race together with Christ."
Plus XI, 1935, in a prayer to close a jubilee
"O Mother of love and mercy who, when thy sweetest Son was consummating the Redemption of the human race on in the altar of the cross, didst stand next to him
suffering with him as a Coredemptrix."
Plus XII, in a radio broadcast in 1946
"Mary, for having been associated with the King of Martyrs in the ineffable work of human Redemption as Mother and cooperatrix, she remains forever associated with him,
with an almost unlimited power, in the distribution of graces which flow from the Redemption."
John XXIII, Vatican II's Lumen Gentium, 1965.
Paul VI, Christi Matri. "The Church ... been accustomed to have recourse to that most ready intercessor, her Mother Mary ... For as St. Irenaeus says,
she 'has become the cause of salvation for the whole human race"
John Paul II, Mother of the Redeemer, 1987.
Pius IX, Ubi Primum, 1849:
"For God has committed to Mary the treasury of all good things, in order that everyone may know that THROUGH HER are obtained every hope, every grace, and
ALL SALVATION.
For this is his will, that we obtain everything through Mary."
That is a lying sack of every form of dung!
We obtain everything from Christ not the harlot devil goddess!
Leo XIII, Supremi Apostolatus, 1883:
"O Mary, the guardian of our peace and the dispensatrix of heavenly graces."
Plus X, Ad Diem Illum, 1904:
"It was granted to the august Virgin to be together
with her Only-begotten Son the most powerful Mediatrix and Conciliatrix of the whole world. So Christ is the source . . . Mary, however, as St. Bernard justly remarks, is the channel, or she is the neck by which the Body is united to the Head... through which ALL spiritual gifts are communicated to his Body."
Jesus is God's only begotten Son! Show me a single scripture where that title is given to Mary!
Benedict XV, In a decree on Joan of Are:
"
In every miracle we must recognize the mediation of Mary, through whom, according to God's will, every grace and blessing comes to us."
Pig swill!
Plus XI, Miserentissimus Redemptor, 1928:
"Confiding in her intercession with Jesus, "the one Mediator of God and man, who wished to associate his own Mother with himself as the advocate of sinners, as the dispenser and mediatrix of grace."
Plus XII, Superiore Anno, 1940: "As St. Bernard declares, 'it is the will of God that we obtain favors through Mary, let everyone hasten to have recourse to Mary."
John XXIII, see Vatican II, Lumen Gentium.
Paul VI, see Lumen Gentium.
John Paul II, Dives in Misericordia, 1980, quoting Lumen Gentium, "In fact, by being assumed into heaven she has not laid aside the office of salvation
but by the manifold intercession she continues to obtain for us the grace of eternal salvation."
Jesus has obtained salvation for us. We don't need Catholic idols to get salvation for us!
Hebrews 9:12
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
I maintain that the Catholic churches are lying, excuse making churches of Satan! They are filled with their idols and superstitious slop.
Spurgeon sums it up very well.
"It is the bounden duty of every Christian to pray against Antichrist, and as to what Antichrist is no sane man ought to raise a question. If it be not the Popery in the Church of Rome there is nothing in the world that can be called by that name.
It wounds Christ, robs Christ of His glory, puts sacramental efficacy in the place of His atonement, and lifts a piece of bread in the place of the Saviour....If we pray against it, because it is against Him, we shall love the persons though we hate their errors; we shall love their souls, though we loathe and detest their dogmas...."
C. H Spurgeon (All Roads Lead To Rome, Dorcheste House, 1991, pg. 183).
See this website. Look at the blasphemous painting of Mary with the earth as her footstool standing in front of the cross.!
