What if Mary appeared to you? [MOVED TO MARIOLOGY]

[lionroar0]

I would say get thee behind me.

And if it does not happen?

1After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 2There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 3Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus.

The Law and the Prohets Talking with the Messiah.. They were not talking to anyone but Jesus. They did not speak with any of the disciples.

 

[MamaZ]

And if it does not happen?

I go on with my daily ministries unto the Lord not paying any attention to it for I know in whom I believe and it is not Mary but Christ.

So what? Jesus was(is) alive Moses and Elijah are dead.

Jesus talked to dead ppl. According to some those that are alive can not talk to the dead. That's what the bible says. According to some.

And what if Jesus sent His Mother with a message? Is that believing in Mary or Jesus?

 

[lionroar0]

How would any one know with out testing the Spirit?

Jesus was not just an ordinary man. He is the beginning and the end the Alpha and the Omega .. Mere men are not God. They are just mere men.

And who's to say various Marian apparitions didn't happen for the same good purposes? I don't think this would be too hard for a being of infinite power. Just like simon you are attaching an arbitrary, vague objection because Marian apparitions disagree with your belief.



Same as above.

I believe Marian apparitions disagree with scripture. We are not to contact the dead. Only God will contact us and if he were t do that he would either do it himself or send his angels. However, revelation is complete. We are in the last age. Next comes the end.

 

[lionroar0]

YES. Finally. It's a miracle!

And if it is not rebuked then What? Would that still be a miracle?

 

[MamaZ]

And what if Jesus sent His Mother with a message? Is that believing in Mary or Jesus?

Why would Jesus send Mary? His message is written down for us. We have His message. Do you believe that Mary is an angel? These are Gods messengers. .

God is a God of the living not of the dead. We are all alive in Christ.

 

[MamaZ]

How would any one know with out testing the Spirit?

We test the Spirit through the written word of God. Knowing that is is breathed from God by His Spirit. Therefore it goes beyond what is written and does not line up with the full context of scripture so therefore nothing I am interested in.

So they why did supposedly dead men show up on a mountain that living people saw?

Why not? Isn't all things possible with God? Public revelation is closed. Private revelation is not.

There are those that have seen Jesus Himself. There are those that have seen angels.

Categoraly(sp?) saying it does not line up with Scripture and not testing the Spirit as Scripture states. Doesn't cut it.

 

[Jakihe]

God is a God of the living not of the dead. We are all alive in Christ.

But don't forget, "The dead in Christ" shall rise first upon his return.

 

[MamaZ]

Yes and angels are messengers of God and Jesus is God. Mary on the other hand is a person saved by the same grace of God that all are saved by.

Cut what?

 

[Frogster]

YES. Finally. It's a miracle!

Amazing !
You are happy with your pal frogster the lawless one?

 

[Yarddog]

I'm not so sure, to be honest.
I am only speaking for myself and what I believe at this point but I don't know that I would necessarily trust a vision of Christ. I will know it's him for certain when I see him appear with his angels and the sound of a trumpet.

Thomas doubted as well and Jesus didn't rebuke him. You are just being honest and humble, which is a good thing. Others are, on the other hand, passing judgment on what they would do, without waiting for God's discerning power, which is a bad thing.
