H L Mencken: "The fact is that the average man’s love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. He is not actually happy when free; he is uncomfortable, a bit alarmed, and intolerably lonely. Liberty is not a thing for the great masses of men. |

So obvious to true scholars. That's how God works. Remember, John the Baptist was Elijah, according to Jesus. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78240207 So clearly evident if you're aware of Priest's behavior even to this day, i.e.: "The voice in my head told me to bend him over, Judge." |

I can't recall where I read in some very old manuscripts that Mary was an Immaculate Conception birth just like her son. Only thing is women were looked down on and Rome decided to bury her facts because they preferred a male, Jesus. |

Careful. don't confess on your knees with eyes closed or bend over before the so-called priest. Mary Was Not Conceived specially. God incarnates in whoever He chooses and this time IT WAS ZACHARIAS THE CHIEF PRIEST. Wake up!!!! |

(OP) User ID: 81660600 United States 05/21/2022 11:19 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Should you pray to Mary? The first thing we learn, then, is that prayer, or worshipful address, should be directed to Jesus’ Father, who is Jehovah. Nowhere does the Bible authorize us to pray to anyone else. This is appropriate since, as Moses was told when he received the Ten Commandments, Jehovah is “a God exacting exclusive devotion.”—Exodus 20:5. What About the Rosary?

(OP) User ID: 81660600 United States 05/21/2022 04:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What About the Rosary? Many who pray to Mary have been taught that blessings can be gained by the repetition of set formulas—prayers such as the Hail Mary, Our Father, and others. For Catholics, “the most widespread form of Marian devotion [that is, devotion to Mary] is without doubt the rosary,” says the book Symbols of Catholicism. The rosary is a religious exercise in honor of the Virgin Mary. The term also refers to the string of beads used to count prayers. “Five sets of ten beads, separated by an individual bead,” explains the same book, “are an invitation to fifty recitations of ‘Hail Mary’, five of ‘Our Father’, and five of ‘Glory be to the Father.’” Does God listen with favor to the devout recitation of the rosary? |

Jesus said to her: “Believe me, woman, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 22You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation begins with the J..s. 23Nevertheless, the hour is coming, and it is now, when the true worshippers will worship the Father with spirit and truth, for indeed, the Father is looking for ones like these to worship him. 24God is a Spirit, and those worshipping him must worship with spirit and truth.” 25The woman said to him: “I know that Messiah is coming, who is called Christ.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79673933 United States 05/21/2022 09:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In a prophecy about the appearance of the Messiah, Isaiah foretold: “Look! The young woman will become pregnant and will give birth to a son.” (Isaiah 7:14) Under divine inspiration, the Gospel writer Matthew applied Isaiah’s prophecy to Mary’s conception of Jesus. After reporting that Mary miraculously became pregnant, Matthew added: “All of this actually came about to fulfill what was spoken by Jehovah through his prophet, saying: ‘Look! The virgin * will become pregnant and will give birth to a son, and they will name him Immanuel,’ which means, when translated, ‘With Us Is God.’”—Matthew 1:22, 23. Quoting: DGN His name was not Immanuel so to the layman that prophecy of the prophecy would definitely appear wrong. Also It would obviously appear he had direct knowledge of the supposed prophecy beforehand and was begging the outcome so there is that. They had 2000 post facto years to align the two stories / prophecies and they couldn't even get that straight? And all of these prophecies are so incredibly vague. That one is definitely the most specific of all even though it isn't all that specific other than it is a regurgitation of the virgin birth story of many prior religions. You have to do better than this. |

The Hail Mary and Rosary are not unscriptural. It is composed of all Bible verses. It is a tool to focus on prayer for some who need to. Furthermore, repetition is also utilized in the composition of Bibles verses such as the Psalms, as in Psalm 136 for help. Also, nowhere in The Bible are we told to worship Mary like we are to worship GOD. True Marion visitations never said to. There are also some appearances that gave false spiritual messages that are non-Scriptural, like the one in Medjugorje which is not approved by the Catholic church. |

Those in many places of power and those above them are not of the Kingdom. In order to reconnect the Kingdom of God to this planet, it has to come from within, from the inside, from humanity itself. The was through the Virgin Mary who ushered the arrival of Christ and still to this day appears in many countries to continue to assist in this process. |

The blessings that come through her Son will be to the eternal benefit of all obedient mankind. “All generations will pronounce me happy,” Mary herself stated. And her cousin Elizabeth said that Mary was “blessed . . . among women.” Indeed, she was. It was a wonderful privilege for Mary to be chosen to bear the Messiah.—Luke 1:42, 48, 49. |
