I think we need to distinguish between church and Church. Church, capital c, is the Body of Christ. All believers are part of the Body of Christ. The word church, small c, is the institution.

How could Mary be separated from God when she carried Him in her womb? Was Jesus God or not? I used to think like you but I came to understand that God is separated from sin so MAYBE Mary had to be sinless and be born without the sin nature. It seems reasonable to me.

@GodsGrace The Lord Jesus as the Lamb of God was the only sinless substitute. If Joseph had really been the father, this is how sin would have been passed on. But Joseph is not the father..

I made a mistake. I sure hope @Cassandra isn't around! I meant to say, as you asked, that Mary's MOTHER was not born of a virgin. This subject is too deep for now Mayflower. Think about this: Could Jesus, God incarnate, be born of a woman who had original sin in her? Who had the sin nature in...

Mayflower, why don't you learn to use google instead of listening to people that don't know what they're talking about. It's 1:30 am here and I have to leave, but I'll tell you about the rosary really fast... The rosary actually tells the story of Jesus. It was for concentrated praying ( I've...

Mary was not born of a virgin. Stop listening to weird people and get the facts.

Also, check out Luke 1:29...

Wow Enoch... Ditto what @Grailhunter said. Read Luke 1:35 Luke 1:31 31“And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name Him Jesus. Luke 1:34 34Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I am a virgin?” Luke 1:35 35The angel answered and said to her, “The...

Does a person have to acknowledge a mistake in order for him to have made one? Good thinking. Wonder if theologians have ever considered this? Those on the Catholic end, I mean. We must be so much smarter than they are... We don't know what goes on in heaven. We only know what has been...

Hail Mary means Hello Mary. If anyone IS worshipping Mary, they are not following church teaching.

At Cana the water turned to wine. And if you don't understand Matthew 12:47-50, you could go ahead and study it a bit. Pay particular attention to verse 50. Jesus always honored His mother and earthly father. Jesus did not break even one commandment....not even no. 6. And the Son of God...

Be nice quietthinker...I like you. No wool pulled over Catholic eyes. Doctrines are as plain as day. You could agree or disagree with them, but there's no wool in sight. And Jesus is not eclipsed. He's spoken of at every Mass I attend, and I never really hear about Mary unless it's a special...

Why FINALLY! You're happy the other poster made a simple mistake because it suits your needs? MARY IS NOT WORSHIPPED IN THE CC !! Which part of NOT WORSHIPPED do you not understand? ONLY GOD IS WORSHIPPED.

Good post. And it might be helpful for some that are reading along and so these posts DO have to appear in these threads. Even if it is impossible for some to understand the difference between ADORATION WORSHIP I'm rather sorry for those that don't give Mary, the mother of our Savior, her just...

You sure are mad at the CC Carabbio. Are you this mad at other denominations that teach odd ideas? Some are VERY odd ideas... And do you think God Father and God Son are happy with how you portray the woman that gave birth to God incarnated, the 2nd Person of the Trinity, the Son of God...

As it does regularly....

Davy There's so much talk about this rapture. They even made a Hollywood type movie about it with Nick Cage,,,pretty funny stuff. No such talk about the Trinity because those who are Christian believe it and there's no debate about it. No hollywood movie about it either. :D

I agree. I'm just saying that some believe in the Trinity, but they don't really understand it, or how to really explain it.

I knew but thought you had the same name... :confused: Silly me.
