What did you have in mind about Catholic honoring Virgin Mary? Worshiping her perhaps?
That is a huge misunderstanding of Non-C towards Catholic. :getholy:

Hi Montalban
In my own words, then…
Have you ever asked your friends to pray for you? Doesn’t it take percentage out of your 100% praying to God. Don’t you agree that those in Heaven can see more clearly than we do? and that their prayers are worth it?**Hi Water
Honoring pple comes in alots of way. However it is the heart that count the most and not action. There are those who looks holy outside but ugly inside, most importantly i respect Mary for she is Jesus’s mother.
Non CC does have a little misunderstanding, is becoz Catholic spend 10% intercede to Mary and the rest to God. But Christian rather spend 100% praying to God solely. So i understand where Mary stands in term of the Catholic
Are you implying that the Word of God is not worth to be quoted? After all, most of the time, all posters here want to see what it says in the Bible, right?Hi Montalban
I rather prefer someone to answer me with their own words, then quoting bible verse, for interpretation of the bible should comes from the church and not how we read it in the form of an English statement.
Would an artist be angered if people spent 10% of their time marveling at his artwork instead of praising him directly? When Catholics and Orthodox and others honor the saints, we are honoring God because we are praising His creation and the love the Saints had for Him. So, we do indeed spend 100% with and for God, whether it is by directly praising Him or by honoring His Saints.Hi Water

**Hi Thistle
Elizabeth’s greeting to Mary (at the visitation):
Luther, himself, had no problem with this prayer, although he warned those of weak faith from praying it because they might be led to lose sight of Christ.
and would probably run me out of town if I were to suggest we pray those verses.She’s saying that people will call her blessed. That’s what we do when we say “Hail Mary…”
I hope you understand that not only are Catholics Christian but we were the first Christians and we belong to the only Church Christ founded when he established it on Peter. Other Christian churches are simply part of breakaways 500 years ago or new groups recently set up only by man and not Christ.
