However.........since you reject Hebrews as the inspired Word of God, you are also rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ.
You seem to have serious reading comprehension problems. Nowhere did PeaceB reject Hebrews as the inspired word of God. He even explained why he DOES believe it is inspired.

Comment 1422..............
"My assertion is that you cannot find a single verse in Scripture that teaches that the letter to the Hebrews is the inspired word of God"

I supplied 2 Tim. 3:16 which he rejected.

Now one of us surely has a reading comprehension problem as #1422 is certainly a negative comment which implies that he is not accepting the explanation the book.

My point is, how in the world can he or anyone question the inspiration of the Book of Hebrews and then turn around and practice so many non-Biblical and non inspired practices done by the RCC?

It just does not make any sense to me.

Some ones says........."I am going to imply that I do not accept the book of Hebrews, However I AM going to pray the Rosary which is not IN THE BIBLE and I am going to bow down to graven images which is not in the Bible.

It is just impossible to say and believe this kind of thinking. IF you are going to use the argument that Hebrews is not inspired, how could you then say that the Rosary is inspired.

Well this is downright comical.

I wrote "I know that the letter is the inspired word of God".

I will point out your other errors later today or tomorrow.

2 Timothy 3:16 doesn't mention the letter to the Hebrews. What it does refer to are the sacred writings that Timothy has been acquanted with from childhood. That can only be referring to the Old Testament as neither the Gospels nor the Epistles had been written when Timothy was a child.
Now one of us surely has a reading comprehension problem as #1422 is certainly a negative comment which implies that he is not accepting the explanation the book.
You confirm that you have a problem reading. His comment is only negative towards your claim as the basis for Hebrews being inspired. He himself never denied its inspiration which he also confirmed in a subsequent post.
My point is, how in the world can he or anyone question the inspiration of the Book of Hebrews and then turn around and practice so many non-Biblical and non inspired practices done by the RCC?

He didn't question the inspiration of Hebrews, he questioned the basis of your claim that it is inspired, something you have not answered (though you will claim you have). You accept the table of contents in the front of your bible yet it was not penned by any Apostle and it was completed centuries after the last of the Apostles died. On what basis do you believe that table of contents to be true?

Devotion to whom?
To Mary. Devotion does not mean worship.
The google definition for devotion is love, loyalty, or enthusiasm for a person, activity, or cause.
"Eleanor's devotion to her husband"
synonyms: loyalty, faithfulness, fidelity, constancy, commitment, adherence, allegiance, dedication; fondness, love, admiration, affection, care.
None of these synonyms mean worship.
