The last few months I've seen quite a few times people referring to Mary as the queen of heaven. Why do people refer to her like that? Nowhere in the Bible is she referred to as one.
To say such thing is a blasphemy.
Jeremiah 7:17-20 'Do you not see what they are doing in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? The children gather wood, the fathers kindle fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes for the queen of heaven. And they pour out drink offerings to other gods, to provoke me to anger. Is it I whom they provoke? declares the Lord. Is it not themselves, to their own shame? Therefore thus says the Lord God: behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, upon man and beast, upon the trees of the field and the fruit of the ground; it will burn and not be quenched.”
Mary, saints, angels nor anyone else is to be worshipped but God only, so why do people worship Mary and Saints? Why do people make statuses out of her? Worship Mary, and when you die she, herself will condemn you to hell for such blasphemy.
Yes, Mary is the mother of Jesus, but at the same time she is not as God does not have a mother. She is not to be worshipped, we may thank God for her and other saints but that's it.
I also seen some people saying she was without sin, but in Luke 1:47 she says 'and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,' If she was without sin, she would not need a saviour. Yes, Mary carried and gave to birth to Jesus, but at the same time Jesus was her savior.
And why do people call her virgin Mary? She was a virgin when she gave birth to Jesus, so in that sense it is ok. We must also note that she had other children after Jesus which we clearly see in Mark 6:3 for example '3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him.'
Why to I write this? So we don't make Mary and the Saints something that they are not.
