    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    "Beauty and the Beast" Um, not quite...The RCC that you quoted titled Mary: A Biblical Treatise quite erroneously left out a very interesting part of Vine's Expositary Dictionary that says...."in Eph. 1:6, it is translated "made...accepted," A.V., freely bestowed," R.V. (lit., 'graced'); it does...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Hmmm! Sounds like the 2017 musical "Beauty and the Beast" to me. The Plot: "An enchantress disguised as an old beggar woman arrives at a castle during a ball and offers the host, a cruel and selfish prince, an enchanted rose in return for shelter from a storm. When he refuses the offer, the...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    It's what the scribes and the pharisees did that the RCC does today...made up "traditions" outside of God's Holy Word that created a heavy burden on the people they were in charge of. Example: Not too long ago, the RCC forbid abstinence. It caused families to produce babies to be christened for...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    That's a strawman's argument. You shoot down what is not logical to begin with! There has never at any time been a "list of scripture in scripture!"

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    You like to keep posting that but the "TRUE" church does not hold traditions over their members heads or by twisting scripture like you do many, many times. If you really love your church so much, instead of mimicikng its traditions and twisted scripture, why don't you help expose the error of...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    A true Christian, nor a true Christian church does not intentionally twist scripture in order to hold their members captive by "traditions" that are not in scripture! The RCC is well-known for twisting scripture for that reason and even worse, for selling statues of Mary for people to pray to...

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Mary was not "created" by God! That is contrary to the origin of the female. God took a rib out of Adam to reproduce another human being. Adam was the ONLY created human although we are all essentially a re-production of God's creation. Therefore, Mary was not "specially" created to bear the...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    It was to show that Satan also has his people who are "from the least to the greatest" also. It is the same as when the serpent tempted Eve by using God's word. I should have specified it though. Does not Satan appear as an "angel of light?"

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    That is blasphemy! Jesus was born king; Mary was born a sinner who needed a Savior (her words). Jesus had a crown put upon his head; Mary did not warrant a crown because she is not a queen. Jesus is alive; Mary is dead. Jesus is coming back; to raise Mary from the dead along with all the elect.

    Why do Catholics adore, worship and deify Mary so much?

    Not a reliable version based on its Aramaic/Latin translation. Over 80 versions use "Hail, favored one"

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Mary is dead. A sinner cannot crush the head of the serpent; only Jesus Christ can! Benson Commentary Genesis 3:15. I will put enmity, &c. — The whole race of serpents are, of all creatures, the most disagreeable and terrible to mankind, and especially to women: but the devil, who seduced the...

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Jer 31:34...And no longer shall each man teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, says the LORD; for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more." It's about forgiving sins; not...

    Jer 31:31..."Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, Luk 22:20...And likewise the cup after supper, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. 1Co 11:25...In the same way...

    my people Israel.'" God is bringing both Jews and Gentiles into his invisible church. Thousands of Jews were saved on the Day of Pentecost and that has never ceased to this day. Israel is a people; the remnant.

    Luk 23:41...And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong."

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Heb 8:12..."For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more." Jesus fulfilled that OT Jeremiah promise! It's a done deal when an OT promise becomes fulfilled in the NT!

    Christians are not under the New Covenant

    Mat 2:6..'And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who will govern my people Israel.'" Israel is God's people; not a country. They are the "church" comprised of Jews and Gentiles. Ephesians 2
