@@Perseverance777 Hi! 🙂

Yes Agreed and its Called Ayurveda...

Paradise is where God dwells (Rev 2:7). Jesus told Mary on resurrection morning He had not gone yet. So how did He meet the thief 3 days earlier? Looked at in this way Jesus lied to either the thief or to Mary. I refuse to believe that. The original Greek has no punctuation. Those were supplied by human interpreters that were still steeped in Catholic theologies, including the belief that a person's soul or spirit goes immediately to heaven or hell when he (or she) dies. Take a look at the punctuation in Luke 23:43, that comma before the word "today" was a human addition. It makes it look like Jesus promised the thief that they would meet that day in paradise. "Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise." But what if THIS was actually meant, because of a misplaced comma "Verily I say unto thee To day, thou shalt be with me in paradise." "Shalt thou" and "thou shalt" is the same word. Is was a promise Jesus made THAT DAY to the thief that (at some future date) they would be together in paradise..... I promise you, today you will be rich for some time. I promise you today, you will be rich for sometime. One says "I promise It will happen TODAY" The other says "I promise today, that it will happen" without specifying when.

@@PastorBatchelor Jesus said to the thief on the cross today I will see you in Paradise Luke 23:43 Paradise is where the Great Gulf is in Luke 16:26 where Jesus went back and preached to the prisons in 1st Peter 3:18 and 19 because they were living on the law and not Grace and he went back and taught them on the left side of the Gulf in a lot of them converted as you read in 1 Peter chapter 4. Pe 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 1Pe 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; 1Pe 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. 1Pe 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: 1Pe 3:22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin; 1Pe 4:2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God. 1Pe 4:3 For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries: 1Pe 4:4 Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same excess of riot, speaking evil of you: 1Pe 4:5 Who shall give account to him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead. 1Pe 4:6 For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. 1Pe 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer. 1Pe 4:8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. 1Pe 4:9 Use hospitality one to another without grudging. 1Pe 4:10 As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 1Pe 4:11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Luk 16:25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. Luk 16:26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

Why should it matter to you if you do not believe Paul's writings are true and inspired anyway?

Giants skeletons are found everywhere just Google the large skull that was found in China several years back. The Smithsonian has hid most all of the large skeletal human beings. Clive Black Sheep has a community section on his RU-vid channel that has videos with a lot of the Giants skeletons. Genesis chapter 6 is very clear there were giants on the earth when David killed Goliath he was one of them

Many giant skeletons have been found especially in South America. Also in the United States and the Smithsonian has hidden them all away.

Archeologist who hold to Darwinism are suppressing the knowledge of those findings. Google is your friend

sure Do you really think you follow the Bible teaching? You have mentioned Mary in your post. I will prove from your very own words (or lack of) that you do not follow all of Scripture, but pick and choose as you see fit. Luke 1:48 "Henceforth", means from the moment she said it until the end of time. "All generations", I would presume includes you as well as myself and everyone who has lived ever since the time she said it. "Shall/Will", denotes a command and not a suggestion. "Call me Blessed". You did not call her blessed even once, and I sincerely doubt that you ever have in your entire life. Catholics call her "blessed" and obey this command. Martin Luther, the first protestant, called her "blessed". He obeyed this command. Now, please tell me why you do not follow this command of Holy Scripture? Show me the verse which authorizes you to accept a verse which appears to conform to your teaching and reject another which does not conform to it? Aren't we commanded to conform our teaching to the Bible and not to try to conform the Bible to false teaching? All generations will call her blessed for she is blessed among women. Of all women, our Lord chose her holy womb, full of grace, as His own dwelling. The power of the Most High overshadowed the mother of our Redeemer and she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit. Our Lord Himself honoured her as His own mother and we must honour whom the Lord honours. Blessed be her name, Mary, and blessed be the name of the fruit of her womb, Jesus. The Lord will honour His own mother, blessed Mary, for all eternity & we cannot but follow His example and honour her as He does: hail, Mary, the Lord is with thee! He is flesh of her flesh & bone of her bone. We are born of Him & He is born of Her and of the Father. The blood which was poured out for us was blood of her blood. A spear pierced His side & a sword pierced her heart. Unless we eat His flesh, which is of her flesh, we have no life within us. Hail Mary, who gave birth to incarnate Love and Salvation and who raised for us sinners the Hope of Israel. The Lord is with her. With her is Redemption, with her is Forgiveness for all iniquities. Blessed be her name by all generations! “If you’re ever worried about loving the blessed Virgin Mary too much don’t be, you can never love her more than Jesus does.” - St Maximilian Kolbe Mary does not take away from the redemptive work of Christ nor does she add to it. If you want proof that Christ's redemptive work is perfect look to exhibit A- The blessed virgin Mary. So then you do not believe Mary carried the divinity in her womb and gave birth to it?....You believe rather that the divinity of GOD only came into Christ after he was born and seperate the divinity from the humanity of Christ(this is Nestorians)?....Do you believe the word mother means source?...If so do you believe your mother is the source of your soul?...or is she your mother because she carried you in her womb and gave birth to you? And it came to pass, as he spoke these things, a certain woman from the crowd, lifting up her voice, said to him: Blessed is the womb that bore thee, and the paps that gave thee suck. But he said: Yea rather, blessed are they who hear the word of God, and keep it. Our Lord was directly complimenting His mother, for who else among the race of men can say that they perfectly heard the Word of God and kept it Mary as the first Person To say Yes to Gods plan for redemption Mary Was the First person to say thy will Be done Mary thru who the WORD was made Flesh Mary is the only person that can say Jesus, flesh of my flesh. Bone of my bone. And that is VERY special The words of the first part of the Hail Mary are words addressed to her by the angel Gabriel and her relative Elizabeth. The second part is merely a request for the mother of God to pray for us. But most important of all: the whole point (the context) of the Hail Mary is not Mary but the incarnation of Jesus. Without the incarnation, we would have no Our Father. If Jesus had not taken flesh in her womb, we would necver have heard of her. So whenever we pray the Hail Mary, we are professing our faith in Jesus, the Word made flesh. As she said to Elizabeth, her soul magnifies the Lord; everything about her speaks of God. It was not the Church that held Mary is the highest esteem and reverence, it was God Himself. “If y’all have any problems with Mary , you better damn well get over them because she’s the Mother of God !” Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. Luke 1:29 "Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you." (Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee) Luke 1:38 "Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb." (blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus) 1 Corinthians 7:34 "An unmarried woman or a virgin is anxious about the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in both body and spirit." (Holy Mary) Luke 2:6-7 "6 While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn son." (Mother of God) 2 Corinthians 1:11 "as you help us with prayer, so that thanks may be given by many on our behalf for the gift granted us through the prayers of many." (pray for us sinners now) Matthew 10:22 "but whoever endures to the end will be saved". (and at the hour of our death. Amen.) I don't think you would disagree with me on the Lord's Prayer, Glory Be, and the Apostle's Creed, but if you do, then tell me :0) ➨INTERCESSION of a holy person on our behalf: ● JOB 42:8 8 Now therefore take seven bulls and seven rams, and GO TO MY SERVANT JOB, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and MY SERVANT Job SHALL PRAY FOR YOU, FOR I WILL ACCEPT HIS PRAYER NOT TO DEAL WITH YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR FOLLY; for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has. ➨INTERCESSION of MARY: At the wedding feast at Cana, it was Mary who asked Jesus to help the wedding party. ➨INTERCESSION OF THE SAINTS: Rev 5:8 The prayers of the Saints are offered to Jesus the lamb. ➨ JOHN 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. ➨The KING Honours his mother's request: ● 1 KINGS 2:20: Then she said, “I have one small request to make of you; do not refuse me.” And the king said to her, “Make your request, my mother, for I will not refuse you.” (Jesus is the Greatest King and he also honours his mother's requests) ➨SAINTS ARE NOT AMONG THE DEAD: AND THEIR INTERCESSION IS BIBLICAL: They share in the ressurrection of Jesus: (Protestants attack Biblical saints while they follow dead reformers) ● LUKE 23 v 39-43...Jesus told the good thief "today you will be with me in paradise" ● REV 19 v 14...when Jesus returns he will be accompanied by his heavenly armies of saints. ● 2 COR 5 v 8...Paul tells us that to be absent with the body is to be with the Lord. ● JOHN 11 v 25-26...Jesus said I am the ressurrection and the life, he who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives, believing in me will never die. ● MATTHEW 27: 52 -53: When Jesus was raised from the dead Many were raised up with him. 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. ● LUKE 1619-30 The story of the rich man and Lazarus show The Rich man, Lazarus and Abraham, all concious and interacting with each other even though they have physically died. ● LUKE 9:30-31 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias: 31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem. (Moses & Elijah were alive, and were yalking with Jesus) ● REV 6:10 The souls of the martyrs are before the throne of God, crying out for justice. (they are conscious and actively petitioning God) ● HEB 12:1-3 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, ● MATT 17:1-13 ...At the Transformation of Jesus, he is seen speaking to Moses and Elijah, further showing that Holy ones of God are not among the dead. ➨HONOURING MARY: LUKE 1:48: All generations will call Mary Blessed. We Catholics are the ones who call her the BLESSED Virgin Mary and treat her accordingly. ➨NOWHERE does the bible permit protestants (or anyone else) to Scrutinize & monitor the prayers of other people, nor to judge their sincerity or their salvation.

@@bibleman8010wow! Where in the Bible does it uplift Mary above Jesus?… it doesn’t it’s a Catholic teaching only. When accusing people of not reading the Bible it’s a good idea that you read it for yourself 🤦🏻‍♀️

@@Joanne_uk how about you gibe me this catholic teaching uplift Mary above Jesus lying dog...

@@Joanne_uk show me this catholic teaching that only exists in your lying mind🤷‍♀🤷‍♀

@@bibleman8010 #1 Your YT user name is wrong. You are not bibleman8010, you are catholicman8010. #2 You are biblically illiterate. The dead are in a state of: Perpetual sleep, do not awake - Jer 51:57 Have no thoughts - Psa 146:4 Have no emotions, no knowledge, no wisdom - Ecc 9:5-6 & 10 Cannot praise God - Isa 33:18 King David has yet to ascend into heaven - Acts 2:29&34 Paul knew he would have to wait in the grave until Jesus comes to receive his crown - II Tim 4:7-8 So did Job - Job 19:26 This is not just my "opinion". It's what the bible says in plain, simple words a child can understand. There are many more such scriptures in the bible. Eternal life with Jesus doesn't start until AFTER the dead are raised when He comes. Purgatory is a man-made false teaching. #3 If "papa" stands in the place of Jesus on earth in the flesh then why don't you eat your priests each and every Sunday morning? You will certainly pray for forgiveness to said priests in the confessional. #4 Do you own a sting of beads? 'Cause I have lost my pet rock and now have nothing to pray to.....

God ordaines life and death.

Purgatory is not biblical. It is a Catholic invention based on pagan beliefs.

None of this is biblical

Since my statements remain biblically uncontested I can only assume everyone agrees with this.

You are denying that Jesus was resurrected in the flesh. Luke 24:36-43 "And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat? And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them." And that God's people will also be resurrected in the flesh: Phil 3:21 "Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself." Job 9:26 "And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:" Are you wondering why not too many people will reply to your parroted indoctrinated teachings? The bible teaches that once you have died you completely cease to exist and no hope whatsoever of life again except for a resurrection in the flesh. Do you need references for this? the bible is full of them. Here's one: i Cor 15:12-19 "Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable."

Wether you believe in a God or not doesn't make you right. You're on your way to the lake of fire. So people like us try to warn you of such a thing. We're so evil aren't we, trying to save people's souls... Forgive us please...

Jesus tells us to spread the gospel message throughout the entire world. It is your own individual choice to accept or reject that message. The message of salvation is given with love, to help you to understand (and perhaps take a stand for Jesus). This old world is almost done and over with. Very few years remain (less than 10 I'm guesstimating). Mal 3:2 "But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth?..." Isa 33:14-16 "The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil; He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure."

Since my statements remain biblically uncontested I can only assume everyone agrees with this.

The Ark became the dwelling place of the presence of God [Exodus 40:34-35] Now notice how God the Holy Spirit overshadowed and then ind welled Mary. At that time Mary's womb became the dwelling place of the presence of God [Luke 1:35] Then The Ark contained the Ten Commandments [the words of God in stone], a pot of manna, and Aaron's rod who was the high priest that had a bulb on the end of it which when they pulled it out the bulb bloomed which represents Jesus's resurrection [Deuteronomy 10:3-5; Hebrews 9:4] Now look what the womb of Mary contained : Jesus who is the Word of God made flesh , the true bread from heaven , Jesus is the high priest who resurrected to life. So you can clearly see why the Church teaches typo logically that Mary is the New Ark and it gets worse for you the very same ARK had passed King David and when he saw this he danced and leapt for joy! just as with Mary when Elizabeth saw her and at the voice of Mary the baby in Elizabeth's womb Leapt for Joy! then David also said David asked, "How is it that the Ark of the Lord comes to me?" [2 Samuel 6:9] and then notice what Elizabeth asks, "Why is this granted unto me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?" [Luke 1:43] then The Ark remained in the house of Obed-edom in the Jude-an countryside for 3 months [2 Samuel 6:11] Mary traveled to the Jude-an countryside and stood with her cousin Elizabeth for 3 months!! Luke 1:56 Mary remained with her about three months and then returned to her home. !!! and no we don't Worship Mary catechism: For no creature could ever be counted as equal with the Incarnate Word and Redeemer. Just as the priesthood of Christ is shared in various ways both by the ministers and by the faithful, and as the one goodness of God is really communicated in different ways to His creatures, so also the unique mediation of the Redeemer does not exclude but rather gives rise to a manifold cooperation which is but a sharing in this one source. The Church does not hesitate to profess this subordinate role of Mary. It knows it through unfailing experience of it and commends it to the hearts of the faithful, so that encouraged by this maternal help they may the more intimately adhere to the Mediator and Redeemer. The Church’s perspective of Mary as subordinate, as any member of the faithful would be🤢🤢
