13 Reasons not to pray through Virgin Mary

[Phil 1:21]

You are just presuming you know based on your religious system's interpretation of the world.

No, based on the word of God.

 

[FireDragon76]

No, based on the word of God.

Your interpretation of the word of God. Just like everybody else.

This question "do you know if you died today where you are going to go?" is only meaningful if you assume the Baptist assumptions about what it means to be a Christian.

I do not know with absolute certainty where I am going when I die (and neither do you). I believe that God has accepted me as his own through my baptism, he has enlightened me with the Holy Spirit and kept me in the true faith.

How sad for you to not know. IF you were not a Catholic you would be able to as I do.

Salvation has nothing to do with being a Baptist or a Catholic or anything else but instead has everything to do with Jesus.

IF you have not placed your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ my friend then you are not accepted by God no matter what you have done.

Just maybe, you should sped more time reading the Bible instead of internet web sites and then you would be able to know where you will be spending eternity. Just a thought!

You are just presuming you know based on your religious system's interpretation of the world.

I am confident in God's grace, but that's not the same thing as what you are suggesting, which is really little more than whistling past a graveyard of doubt. You are the one that has to hide behind pious sophistry. My pastor does a good job of keeping me secure in the faith, and away from wolves like you.

You have posted that you are a Luthern. May I say to you that I have many friends who are Luthern and I have never hear one of them say what you are saying.

Are you born again or are you just playing church?

 

[FireDragon76]

I will not be bullied by you or anyone else. You are not my pastor. My confidence in God is not dependent on accepting your inane arguments.

And I'm not Roman Catholic. One does not have to be Roman Catholic to honor Mary and to defend it as pious.

1. She’s not God.
2. She’s not God.
3. She’s not God.
4. She’s not God.
5. She’s not God.
6. She’s not God.
7. She’s not God.
8. She’s not God.
9. She’s not God.
10. She’s not God.
11. She’s not God.
12. She’s not God.
13. She’s not God.

Basically.

 

[Cat Loaf You]

Thanks for bringing up the usual anti-Catholic polemics.

As for me, I will continue to honor the mother of our Lord and God.

God does not have mother because he is eternal. He was never born.

You can track mother and son worship back to Babylon , they just renamed it to Mary and Jesus just like they renamed pagan holiday to Christmass

Nice nice - make sure you spoil her

 

[ViaCrucis]

Knowing indicates empirical evidence. That isn't granted us--instead we walk by faith, not by sight. I don't know where I'd go or what happens immediately once my body reposes; but I have all confidence and trust that I will be with Christ because of the promises He gives, namely He says, "Where I am, there you will be also."

We Lutherans say baptizatus sum, and that is sufficient for us. Because Christ is sufficient for us.

Jesus Christ is God.

Her sinless vessel is part of salvation . Her virgin birth . Not the person.

-CryptoLutheran

No argument from me and I am glad to hear that.

Of course the Bible as you know says that we are saved by faith in Jesus Christ plus nothing which includes water baptism.

By the way, is your baptism sprinkling or emersion?

 

[FireDragon76]

God does not have mother because he is eternal. He was never born.

What do you call Jesus?
