Rosary prevented Serial Killer *Ted Bundy* from killing Unarmed Sorority College Student

The Rosary is about Jesus not Mary.........

Rosary beads are simply a tool that helps us remember God. An Evangelical woman on that plane might be reciting "How Great thou Art."

The very first Protestant in history, Reformation leader Martin Luther wouldn't agree with this "modern" criticism of the Rosary. He said:

"Our prayer should include the Mother of God . . . What the Hail Mary says is that all glory should be given to God, using these words: "Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus Christ. Amen!" You see that these words are not concerned with prayer but purely with giving praise and honor . . . We can use the Hail Mary as a meditation in which we recite what grace God has given her. Second, we should add a wish that everyone may know and respect her



What you're saying doesn't make a lick of sense.


That's like saying robbing a bank and going on a spending spree is good for the economy.

In no way shape or form "Hail Mary" brings glory to YAH.

Our life our sweetness and Hope?

OUR LIFE?
OUR LIFE?
OUR LIFE?


Who is our life?

John 14
6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.


Please dont' fall the subtle slight of hand infiltration of the queen of heaven....



It is a Prayer of Meditation not sure why that confuses you.

breast implants have saved womens lives before...

Learn from the Story which is *Faith*


the catholic religion is witchcraft. Please don't lump bible believing Christians in with your mystery religion
Mary worship is worship of an idol and praying to your dead relatives is necromancing... I was raised catholic, i know it well

thanks!


I get so tired of hearing the same old crap over and over. Nothing of the above is even remotely true about Catholicism. Obviously this person was NOT raised Catholic or they wouldn't be repeating the same old tired lies.
Catholics do not worship Mary. They don't pray to their dead relatives.


Hail Mary full of grace... what is that? Praying to Mary

and you've never had someone tell you to pray to some dead relative for something? Maybe you're not catholic or just new

I went to catholic school and stopped at my confirmation... I had enough crazy by then

You know it's true... also what's up with the confessional? Can't I go right to Jesus and confess my sins? He did die on a cross for me... so why should I go into a confessional and confess to another sinner, say a priest???
thanks!

Luke 1:26-28 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth, 27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. 28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Luke 1:39-45
39 And Mary rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda. 40 And she entered into the house of Zachary, and saluted Elizabeth. 41 And it came to pass, that when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: 42 And she cried out with a loud voice, and said: Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. 43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 For behold as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. 45 And blessed art thou that hast believed, because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to thee by the Lord.

The words of the Hail Mary are taken directly from Scripture. Was the Angel Gabriel and her cousin Elizabeth worshiping Mary?

John 20: 19-23
19 Now when it was late that same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them: Peace be to you. 20 And when he had said this, he shewed them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord. 21 He said therefore to them again: Peace be to you. As the Father hath sent me, I also send you. 22 When he had said this, he breathed on them; and he said to them: Receive ye the Holy Ghost. 23 Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.

Jesus instituted the Sacrament of Penance or Confession.
Jesus instituted all of the Sacraments. We confess our sins to the priest because that's the way Jesus wants it to be.
But, in reality you are confessing to Jesus and the Priest is acting for Jesus because Jesus gave the Apostles this power and instructed them to either forgive or not to forgive sins in His place.

Guess you weren't paying much attention in Catholic school, were you?

Matt 26: 42-44 42 Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done. 43 And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy. 44 And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.

As for those who think you should not repeat the same prayer over and over. If it's good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for us.

But in fact, when you are repeating the Hail Mary in the Rosary, you are meditating on various "Mysteries" or events in the life of Jesus at the same time. The Hail Mary is an aid to the meditation.

Thought this was an inspiring Story to share..That the Rosary is not only for Catholics but for all *Believers*

This is the month of the Rosary and so it comes as a timely reminder to read from a new book about yet another modern Rosary wonder.

The book is With Mary to Jesus, by Father Joseph M. Esper, and in it is related that "in 1978, the Rosary saved a college girl from dying at the hands of the infamous serial killer Ted Bundy.

"He had just murdered or fatally injured all the other girls in a college sorority house, and then entered her room -- but some unexplainable force made him stop, drop his weapon, and flee.

"That particular girl had promised her grandmother she would pray the Rosary every night, and when Bundy entered her room, she was still clutching the Rosary beads in her hand."

The date was January 15, the time approximately 3 a.m., when the horrific serial killer -- on the loose after a prison escape -- entered a sorority house and killed two sleeping women, Lisa Levy and Margaret Bowman, before searching for other victims.

The unnamed girl awoke to a man standing over her with a bat. When she opened her hands, Bundy looked at the rosary beads in them, and fled, notes another account; such is the power of our Mother’s protective mantle!

This was related to a priest, Monsignor William Kerr, of Tallahassee, Florida, who was called by police to accompany them to the Chi Omega sorority house at Florida State University -- where the girl was found catatonic and in fact would only speak to the priest (who died in May of 2009). Monsignor in his turn had related it to a priest named Gabriel Gillen, OP.

When Monsignor Kerr approached the near-catatonic girl, she told him her grandmother had made her promise before going off to college for the first time that she would pray the Rosary every night before bed for protection, even if she fell asleep praying it -- which she had that night; thus, when he entered, the beads were still clutched in her hands.

Bundy eventually confessed to over thirty murders, although the actual total remains unknown, with estimates of twenty-six to over a hundred (the general figure set around 35). Typically, notes a web biography, "Bundy would bludgeon his victims, then strangle them to death," sometimes along with sexual assault.

"Ironically, when Ted Bundy was on death row, awaiting execution for his crimes, he asked Monsignor Kerr to serve as a spiritual counselor, and the priest took the opportunity to ask about that terrible night," notes the book's reference section. "Bundy explained that when he entered the girl's room, he had fully intended on murdering her; some mysterious power was preventing him."

"There are very powerful promises attached to praying the Rosary," notes Father Esper. "And not only does it aid our own spiritual growth -- it also undermines the kingdom of Satan. The famous Vatican exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth testified, 'One day a colleague of mine heard the devil say during an exorcism, "Every Hail Mary is like a blow on my head. If Christians knew how powerful the Rosary was, it would be my end."' Padre Pio, who called the Rosary an extraordinarily powerful weapon against Satan, once said, 'The Rosary is the weapon for these times.'"

And so we pray.

this is a great point...seriously....


the rosary is ancient pagan prayer beads...

Matthew 6

7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen [do]: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.


the words of Yahushuwa....

The monks praying in Hiroshima when the atom bomb was dropped were all spared, while everything around them was flattened.

And so we pray.

Jesus told us to love Mary and pray to her, that she is full of graces and that He cannot refuse her anything she asks from Him. Can you imagine how offending it is when Jesus hears that you hate His mother so much? He gave His Mother to all of us when He died on the Cross.
