Mary is The Ultimate Woman 

"What the Catholic faith believes about Mary is based on what it believes about Christ." Really? The Catholic Church worships Mary. Where does the Bible say that? NOWHERE!! The Catholic Church prays to Mary. Where does the Bible say that? NOWHERE!! Face the facts, the Catholic Church is feeding you garbage.

Jesus gave very scant "honor" to his human mother. Mary was NEVER front and center in Jesus' story. At the Cana wedding Jesus tells her to sit down and shut up. When she brings her other sons to try to carry him off home because Jesus is an embarrassment to her, Jesus disowns her flat. Mary is NOT Eve at all. If she WAS Eve that would be a horrible thing annd incestuous sine Jesus is the "second Adam" and that would be suggesting that Jesus married his own mother. EHHHH! Jael was horrifyingly evil. She gave Sisera, her husband's friend, hospitality and sanctuary and then murdered him cowardly in his sleep. This is a monsterous sin. Sisera was a danger to no one at this time and before that was just a soldier doing his kings orders. Abimelech and Sisera are NOT the seed of the serpent of Genesis 3:15. Read Gen 3:15 again deluded one. HE, Jesus, the seed of the woman, "bruises" the serpent's (Satan''s) head, not ANY woman. HAs becoming a Papist fried your brain?? You are seeing things that are NOT there. Liar.

@@cbooth151 TROLL.

@@HAL9000-su1mz Not so, little boy.

Mary was absolutely favored about all women. But what do you make of the scripture where Jesus says you are my mother and brothers when he was told his mothers and brother showed up where he was? When he had the opportunity to show high level of love & respect , he seemed to have brushed them off.

please pray for that to be the case!

@@midairfortress-revert Why is it that Protestant seminaries don't teach the Marian doctrines to their students? I get that the Immaculate Conception would be problematic, but how does the Perpetual Virginity threaten Protestantism? Luther and Calvin agreed with it? Mother of God is a Christological issue, and even the Assumption seems to pose little threat. If seminaries taught pastors and pastors taught church members, much ink could be saved. Thoughts?

you're very kind. thank you.

I find it strange that so many "bible believers" cannot even connect the ONE DOT they have!

Sir, I wish I had discovered that truth much earlier in life. But Nunc Coepi!

​@@midairfortress-revertGod the Holy.Ghost led you to his Spouse Mary who led you to her Son Christ.... Buy the 4 book set "City of God" by Mary of Agreda to really know Mary. Protestantism from Satan Catholiscism from Triune God.

@@chuckjones8459 "God the Holy.Ghost led you to his Spouse Mary." Where in your Bible does it mention the term "God the holy spirit," and where does the Bible say it was married to Mary?

You say Mary "carried God [in] the new ark of the covenant in Revelation 11." Really? Where in Revelation 11 does it say that? BTW, don't Catholics believe God is a trinity, consisting of the Father, Son, and holy spirit? So, where in Revelation 11 does it say Mary carried a triune deity? You also said: "Joseph knew he had the new ark of the covenant as his wife." Really? Where does your Bible say that? You also said: "Joseph did not touch the Virgin Mary in a sexual manner lest he be struck down the same way God struck down Uzzah." That's not exactly what the Bible says. For instance, Matt. 1:24, 25 says: "When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home. He had no relations with her until she bore a son." It's not that Joseph NEVER had sexual relations with Mary. He just couldn't have sex with her *"UNTIL* she bore him a son.

cbooth is a known pathological troll. If he harasses again, please report him.

@@HAL9000-su1mz Stupid people are afraid of the truth.

Also, we are known by our fruits. The "fruit" of Mary’s womb is Jesus. Mary’s "fruit" is undeniably the best there is and she deserves the requisite honor.

@@cbooth151 Look at the verse immediately before at the end of the prior chapter. It is about the Ark. Remember, there were no chapter and verse divisions until done by Catholic monks much later. Also, what is in the Ark? Commandments (word of God), manna (bread from heaven) and Aaron's staff (priesthood). Jesus is the Word of God, from Bethlehem (house of bread), who is the bread of life (see John 6), and He is the priest forever in the line of Melkisedek. See videos by Brant Pitre on this. Blessings.

how awesome! I'm so glad to hear this!! I plan to post that video on Monday or Tuesday, but I don't think it's going to be a big shocker.

Where in your Bible does it speak of "Jesus and Mary as the new Adam and Eve"?

@@cbooth151 My bible? I did not write the bible. Do you know who did? The Holy Spirit inspired people in the Church that the Son of God established. It is the pillar and foundation of truth. Ask this church.

@@billdavis5483 "My bible? I did not write the bible. Do you know who did? The Holy Spirit inspired people in the Church that the Son of God established. It is the pillar and foundation of truth." If the Catholic Church wrote the Bible, where in it did Jesus teach that death came through Eve and that life came through Mary? You say the Catholic Church is the "pillar of truth." Well, what did Jesus say about "truth"? At John 8:31, 32, he said: "If you obey my teaching, you are really my disciples, you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” So, if the Catholic Church is the "pillar of truth, where in the Bible or anywhere else did Jesus teach that... 1. Mary can be worshiped? 2. "we worship one God in trinity"? 3. the holy spirit is a person? 4. priests could be addressed as 'Father'? 5. inanimate objects such as statues and relics can be worshiped? If you honestly answer the above questions, you will see that the Catholic Church is not the "pillar of truth."

@@cbooth151 Pathological hater and troll.

Reported for incessant anti-Christian hate speech and demonic harassment.

of course - the trues are entirely compatible.

You are absolutely right. Death is through Adam. (Ro. 5:12) Life is through Jesus. (John 14:6) When I made that comment, it was deleted. The man who made the video doesn't want anyone to know the truth.

This is an excellent question and a legitimate concern that I can truly appreciate. I can offer just a few things that I hope might be helpful. 1) Much of the lofty language is poetic in nature, similar to the way a man and wife might write to each other, or a poet might describe with flowery language his love for a city or country. Consider how the Bible speaks in poetically lofty language regarding Zion "the perfection of beauty" (Ps. 50:2), which is "beautiful in elevation, the joy of all the earth" (Ps. 48:2), "a land flowing with milk and honey, the most glorious of all lands." (Ezek. 20:6). Similar examples could be multiplied; 2) Whatever praise is rendered to Mary likely falls short of how the Angel Gabriel addressed her: "Hail Full of Grace" - "Full of Grace" being a new name God gave her, much as he renamed Abraham, Jacob, and Simon. Simon, in fact, is a good example because the Lord changed his name to Rock (Kephas, Peter). "Rock" is how the Bible describes God Himself (Deut 32:4). So God is not threatened or lessened in anyway by a human taking a lofty name that also describes God. 3) "Latria" is reserved for God alone, and this is seen most essentially in the central act of worship, which is sacrifice. The Church has literally excommunicated anyone who offered sacrifices to Mary, as that is a blasphemy against God. 4) The Catechism (2097) refers to the "nothingness of the creature" in comparison to God. The Church, while have a lofty view of Mary as the greatest and most beautiful of God's creatures, could not be more explicit in drawing the unbridgeable metaphysical distinction between the Creator and the creature, including Mary. If I can, I'd like to recommend a couple books for you to look into. One is Bible Mary by Fr. John Waiss, another is Brant Pitre, Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary, and a third would be Marian Consecration with Aquinas by Matt Fradd and Fr. Gregory Pine. I hope some of this is helpful. But I want to reiterate that I completely understand your concern here. But I'm confident that there are good answers to your good questions. God bless and thanks for watching the video!

I should also point out Ezekiel 28:12ff where God uses incredibly lofty language to describe the king of Tyre, which most Scripture scholars see as ultimately referring to Satan himself. Yet God does not shy away from some rather exalted descriptions of His own handiwork.

One of the most hyper-duplicate guys (Louis de Montfort) references a book that gives an “academic” defense of Marian devotion. I found a translation and I have to laugh at what he considers more academic because it’s still very flowery and from the heart. Fr. Poire links Marian devotion to a manner in which we worship God - that God’s holiness and glory is beyond our comprehending that we can only perceive his perfections indirectly by observing what exists of the limited perfections in his servants who are mere reflections of His glory. Marian devotion is the greatest of indirect reflections of God’s glory - but to be selected to contain in herself the Son of God, the perfect or of the universe, she herself must be so beyond anything we are familiar with. Not because she is greater than God… but because she is an even greater reflection of God’s glory than any of the saints. The saints are dim mirrors… Mary is a multi-faceted diamond that reflects God’s pure light. So even she must be perceived indirectly because God is so beyond comprehension, he brings his handmaiden beyond our comprehension by choosing her.

Honoring Mary is a way of worshipping God. The more she is honored, the even higher God is.

If Mary had nothing to do with it then you are saying Jesus had no human body and therefore wasn't of the David's bloodline. Your statement is either Docetism, Nestorianism, or Monophysitism, not sure exactly which one of those your claiming, but you should know that all of them were dealt with by early Christians and rejected. Docetism The belief of Docetism holds that Jesus Christ did not have a real physical body, but only an apparent or illusory one. Nestorianism he belief that Jesus Christ was two persons, the divine Son of God and the human Jesus of Nazareth. Nestorius said that the Virgin Mary is not the Mother of God (Theotokos) because she gave birth to the human part of Jesus, not the divine Son of God, and called her Christotokos. Monophysitism The belief that Christ has only one nature, which is divine.

You correctly infer from the analogy to Mary's sinlessness. But it is a non-sequitor to claim that therefore she did not need a Savior, as she herself said. Think of it this way: a doctor could save you from an illness by administering a cure, or he could save you from ever getting the illness through inoculation. In both cases, he "saved" you. Or a father could pull his child from a ditch into which she has fallen, or he can prevent her from ever falling into the ditch. In both cases, he "saved" her. The Catholic claim regarding Mary - echoing the ancient believers and affirmed even by the early Reformers - is akin to the doctor who inoculates or the father who prevents the child from falling into the ditch.

@@midairfortress-revert Every human being was, is, and will be born of the fallen seed of Adam. Only Jesus was born not of Adam. "He who knew no sin became sin for us..." God's plan for fallen man was salvation from the power of sin and death. It certainly was not prevention from sin for anyone fallen, including Mary.

@@dannisivoccia2712 Well then, Jesus being also fully man would have been born of the Fallen seed of Adam, also... right?

@@MegaTechno2000 The seed came from the Creator; the egg came from Mary. It is why Jesus was not born of the fallen seed of Adam. In Genesis, it refers to the seed and not the egg.

You’re hopelessly out of touch with the teaching of His One True Church Mt 16 18-19! Do yourself a favour & read the early fathers to see how the early church operated.

Nowhere in the bible are the words Trinity, consubstantial, or bible and yet the overwhelming majority of Christians hold those to be true. Nowhere in the bible does a book contain a list of books that belong in the bible and no book of the bible has a verse saying it belongs in the bible. The queens of the Davidic Kingdom where the mother of the king not their wife therefore if Jesus is king then Mary is Queen.

@@geoffjs "You’re hopelessly out of touch with the teaching of His One True Church Mt 16 18-19! Do yourself a favour & read the early fathers to see how the early church operated." Sorry, but I didn't see this post until this morning. So, I will address it now, if that's okay with you. To be _in_ touch with the _true Christian_Church, not the Catholic Church, all one has to do is read the Gospels along with the book of Acts. That way, we can see what Jesus taught and how the early Christians were guided by those teachings. So, if members of the early _Christian_ church, were Catholic, where in the Bible does it say that they believed that... 1. God is a trinity? NOWHERE!! 2. Mary was immaculately conceived? NOWHERE!! 3. the Father, Son, and holy spirit make up the same "One Incomprehensible"? NOWHERE!! 4. Mary should be worshiped? NOWHERE!! 5. Peter was a pope? NOWHERE!! 6. inanimate objects like statues can be worshiped? NOWHERE!! 7. the Father, Son, and holy spirit are one in substance, nature, and essence? NOWHERE!! 8. the Godhead is triune? NOWHERE!! 9. "we worship one God in trinity"? 10. Mary is a co-redemptrix? So, if you will, will you please answer at least one of the above questions so you can show that the Catholic Church and the the "one true [Christian] church" are one in the same church? Sorry for the late reply.

@@kisstune "Nowhere in the bible are the word "Trinity." That's true, but, is the trinity teaching in the Bible? For example, where in the Bible does it say or even imply that... 1. "we worship one God in trinity"? 2. the Father, Son, and holy spirit make up the same "One God"? 3. the Father, Son, and holy spirit make up the same "One Incomprehensible"? 4. the Father, Son, and holy spirit are one in substance, nature, and essence? 5. the holy spirit is a person? Will you please answer at least one of the questions above?

@@kisstune "Nowhere in the bible are the words Trinity, consubstantial, or bible and yet the overwhelming majority of Christians hold those to be true." It's a given that the word "trinity" is not in the Bible. After all, Tertullian coined that word decades after the last NT writer, John, died. So, naturally, the word "trinity" would not be in the Bible. However, neither is the concept of a three-person deity. The trinity belief was introduced into apostate Christianity at two Catholic Councils. As A Catholic Dictionary says: “The third Person was asserted at a Council of Alexandria in 362…and finally by the Council of Constantinople of 381.” Before then, no trinity.

We KNOW that fred. You can stop trolling and harassing Christians now. PLEASE.

@@HAL9000-su1mz trolling l think it's trolling on these posts. Too many so called believers, just remember ur just as human as others.

The truth is both/and not either/or. Adam wasn't alone in the garden, and Jesus didn't just appear out of nowhere. As St. Augustine wrote, "just as death comes to us through a woman, life is born to us through a woman."

@@midairfortress-revert Men, like Augustine, can say many things but which doesn't make it true. We (believers) are to test the spirits, which is to use discernment, to see if they are true or not. And we are to hold fast to. Augustine's comment does not align with the teaching of the apostles or with the testimony of the scriptures. When John addressed his second letter to 'the chosen lady and her children', he was using personification to refer to the church, the church as a whole, not Mary. As Paul said, 'Watch out for yourselves and for all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God that he obtained with the blood of his own Son. I know that after I am gone fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. Even from among your own group men will arise, teaching perversions of the truth to draw the disciples away after them.' Paul's prophetic utterance certainly came to pass with doctrines concerning Mary and the false invention of a special class of Sainthood and Priesthood and the headlong fall into the institution of Christendom.

Another know it all. If YOU are Christian, it is a false faith.

​@Beautiful words of St Augustine, and yet, many, out of pride(?) don't seem to get it.😢

@@alelilaceda3539 Like a beautiful white washed wall, hiding the filth which is the prostitute, Babylon.

Those who learned from the very apostles who wrote the Bible disagree with you.

Not everything is in the bible eg the words Trinity, Bible etc Because of Eve’s disobedience to God and Adam’s cooperation with her, they lost sanctifying grace for themselves and their offspring. Like Eve, Mary was created full of grace. But unlike Eve, Mary remained obedient to God, just as Christ, unlike Adam, remained obedient to God. In cooperation with God, Mary became Mother of the Redeemer and, in cooperation with Christ, she became Mother of the redeemed as well.

FYI: Christians DO NOT NEED A BIBLE. The bible proves this. No Christian "IN" the bible "HAD" a bible. Explain...
