Matthew 16:18-19
May you know Christ and fantasy less
If Scripture interprets Scripture, why are there so many different interpretations of it? even though Christ prayed for unity, and the Apostles taught unity of doctrine (“be of one mind…”)
all the early Church Fathers disagree with you
Sorry it doesn’t say what you want it to say
have known Him for years
Yeah I heard this all before
IMHO, that verse does not indicate that the 5.5 billion non-Catholics in the world have dislike Mary personally.
Than why hurt Him by going to the dead
The " keys of the kingdom of heaven" Our Lord gave to St Peter and not to you or me.
I agree I don’t dislike or hate her. What I don’t understand is they pray to her to pray for others and say its just like us when asked to pray for others. I don’t believe that to be true. When we are ask to pray for others they don’t pray to us for us to pray for them.
“Yeah I heard this all before”
I honestly feel very sad for you.
I’m not going to reply anymore… I hope that one day, you’ll see the truth. God bless.Why hurt Our Loving Lord by not being in His church, the Holy Catholic Church?
Sorry, The Holy Bible does not say what you want it to say, scripture alone.
Well, this thread asks, “Why do non-Catholics dislike Mary?”
I wouldn’t get too caught up into what Charsan2 is posting. By their own bio they are Christian looking into Luthurism and are posting on a Catholic forum and just joined 3 days ago.
Kinda prudent to pause and wonder. We are encouraged to be wise as serpents yet gentle as doves.
Cyberspace is a perfect place to yank chains and cause dissension.
We celebrate the Word Incarnate’s appearance in just a few days.
We reflect and meditate on what the means to us as a people, and as individuals.
Don’t let another’s agenda take you off the course you have set for yourself in this Advent/Christmas season. Steady as she goes goes.
Christ IS born. Of Mary. Thru the Holy Spirit. Rejoice and be glad. For our Lord HAS come amongst us to save us from our sins!
And Holy is His name
Amen.
I disagree with the threads premise. See my quotes from Martin Luther a few pages back.Well, this thread asks, “Why do non-Catholics dislike Mary?”
That would be about 5.5 billion people.
I’m TRYING to see if anyone knows of even ONE that has a dislike for Her, personally.
So far, one said she USED to (she doesn’t know why) but no longer does.
Where are these 5.5 billion people who have a great dislike for her, personally?
I suddenly feel very isolated. I know hundreds and hundreds of people. Christians (of all sorts), Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, Shintos, Taoists - and a LOT of agnostics and atheists. And I’ve yet to know ANYONE who hates her. With 5.5 billion of them, you’d think I’ve would have met at least ONE, wouldn’t you?
