    Biblical Mary

    So, you DON'T believe that Jesus is God? You ran from that question earlier. OR - do you believe that He IS God - but that His BODY was not human but some kind of "illusion"? Don't run this time . . .

    Biblical Mary

    MOST of what you just posted are NOT doctrinal matters. As for Mary's Assumption - there is Biblical reference for it. Mary is the ONLY one in ALL of Revelation who is seen with a full body - from head to toe (Rev. 12:1). And the Commandments weren't changed - they're ALL still there.

    No - I was merely showing you that it was the Church who influenced Pepin - and NOT the other way around. I'm not surprised that you don't know who Boettner is. Most Protestants simply regurgitates his nonsense but have NO knowledge of the man. He wrote what is come to be known as the...

    Biblical Mary

    Time for another Bible Lesson . . . What do the Scriptures have to say about the women standing at the cross and their children? Matt. 27:56 says, "…among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee". Mark 15:40 states, "There were...

    Biblical Mary

    And yet - you keep fighting the fact that Jesus was His mother's SEED (Gen. 3:15) and that SHE conceived Him in HER womb (Luke 1:31).

    Biblical Mary

    Time for another Bible lesson . . . The following OT TYPE and NT FULFILLMENT, although directly involving Mary - ALL points to Jesus: OT - The Tabernacle that housed the Ark was overshadowed by the cloud of glory of the Lord (Shekinah glory) filled the Tabernacle (2 Chron. 5:13-14). NT - Mary...

    Biblical Mary

    Really? So, even though God is SPIRIT - YOU believe that He has - Nostrils? (Exod. 15:8) Wings? (Psalm 17:8) Feathers? (Psalm 91:4) These are the idiotic conclusions that ultra-literalists like YOU must arrive at when you read Scripture - instead of understanding that SOME things are figurative...

    Biblical Mary

    Do you believe that Jesus's mother (MarY) had a uterine sister ALSO named "Mary"? John 19:25 states, "But standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s SISTER (adelphe), Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene". How about Peter and his "120" "brothers" (Adelphoi) in the...

    Biblical Mary

    Then what is your point?? Why do YOU think Jesus refers to His mother as "Woman" in John's Gospel?

    ONE more time, Einstein. There is the Catholic Church. WITHIN that ONE Church - there are some 20 Liturgical Rites that are ALL in communion with each other. There is no "Roman Catholic Church" - just The Catholic Church. Did that sink in this time?

    Biblical Mary

    The Councils tackled heresies that are clearly against the teachings of Scripture. If YOU are attempting to defend the errors of Arianism, Nestorianism, Sabellianism, Gnosticism, etc., - then it's NO WONDER why you're so confused

    For the :LAST time: the Donation of Constantine was a forgery. The cleric(s) who crafted it had ulterior motives. Just because there were some bad people within the hierarchy of the Church does NOT nullify Christ's Church. It nullifies THEM. If YOU cheat on your wife - is SHE guilty? Aren't...

    Neither Catholic or Protestant

    First of all - I already conceded to the fact that there WERE malicious clerics within the Church with ulterior motives. This doesn't nullify the God-given authority of Christ's Church. It simply means that those "bad guys" will be dealt with by God. Anyway - you guys have GOT to stop reading...

    Biblical Mary

    No - we're NOT made of dust. Only Adam was. We're made from a sperm and an egg. We are only FIGURATIVELY made from dust because we are his descendants. Try to grasp the meaning of Scripture - IF you can . . .

    Biblical Mary

    Sooooo, so you believe He was being dismissive of her by calling her "Woman"?
  17. BreadOfLife

    Biblical Mary

    Certainly, I can. Just to name a FEW of those Liturgical Rites you have slandered by using the idiotic term "Romanism" are the Melkite, Maronite, Byzantine, Coptic, Alexandran, Ruthenian and many more. We are the Catholic Church - not "Romanism", Einstein.

    Biblical Mary

    Tou are absolutely correct - for ONCE. The highlight is ALWAYS Jesus. Maty being declared "Theotokos" (God-bearer) at the Council of Ephesus n 431 was ALL about Jesus - not Mary. Mary being the FULFILLMENT of the Ark of the Covenant is ALL about Jesus - not Mary - and THAT'S why her having no...

    Biblical Mary

    And until YOU can disprove the fact hat He was His mother's SEED (Gen. 3:15) and that SHE conceived Him in HER womb (Luke 1:31) - you don't have a Biblical leg to stand on.

    Biblical Mary

    And again - your entire "Mary had other kids" myth is obliterated in John 18:26-27, when Jesus hand's his mother over to the care of one of His Apostles. This NEVER would have had to happen - IF she had other children to take care of her. This ALSO proves that the his "brethren" in Matt. 12...
