Airhix: Sketching information about the Virgin Mary's Apparition in st Benedicts catholic church,Ubiaja in Esan south-East local government Area of Edo-state ,Nigeria, picture is every where in the blessed land of esan, no surprises at all from me ,because ubiaja was one of the home land of white missionaries who brought christianity to Esan land . As the Esan people celebrate a centenary celebration of Christianity ,its a mark of Blessed Mother of God's prayers to the Esan land. I would be heading to Ubiaja tomorrow to see the exact sport of the apparition . Blessed Mother of God , pray for me.

There was no Apparition of MARY and there has never been one throughout history. WHY? Because Mary was a mortal that lived and died. She is not DIVINE! Again God have messengers to do his errands and these messengers are called ANGELS! Now tell me why on earth would Mary be making an appearance? What purpose does it serve? Whenever it comes to things of GOD, we should remove our personal feelings and beliefs and stay within Scriptures. Again there was never a Picture or Image of Mary, so why conclude that the Statute, Image or Apparition of A White woman whose head is covered is MARY? What makes her Mary?... If you collect all the Millions of Statues and Pictures of Mary around the world, you would be looking at more that a thousand different women and yet they call these different women one and the same MARY! Please let us leave the "Traditions of men and Focus on GOD... Stay Blessed

kasheemawo: what a confusing religion,can u explain better how Jesus is/was God and remember that Jesus was also created d way Adam was created.attributing Jesus to be a God always piss me off. Is only jehovah witness i respect most among Christianity because they believe that Jesus was a mere a message and he was sent by most High

CAMEROONPRIDE: so u are not comparing yourself with Mary? are u Virgin?
did an angel say to u that all generations should call u blessed? did u give birth to God? eh eh like i said you protestants don't know what u are doing or saying, i'm not even surprised .

mary was only a virgin after she gave birth to christ .. she also gave birth to other children remember... and was she still a man after this ..This teaching that suggests that Mary remained a virgin is antibiblical. Mary did not remain a virgin.


The Bible says that Jesus was her FIRSTBORN and Joseph knew her not
(intimately) TILL she gave birth to Jesus. The Bible specifically says that Jesus
had brothers and even mentions their names. Jesus had sisters too. Scriptural
references are below:

Mathew 1:25: And [Joseph] knew her not till she had brought forth her
firstborn son: and he called His name JESUS.


Mathew 13:55-56 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary?
and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are
they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?

"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)"

Alfa Seltzer: There's leak in church roof. They may want to fix it before the water causes further damage. Or not. That's their problem.

Coming to think of it, are these people so brain dead stuupid that they resort to worshiping a consequence of bad work and falling building?

Anyway, the water stain shape looks more like a giant condom than anything else.

Beey: At this age people are still chasing after images and shadows instead of chasing after God?What's this obsession that Catholics have with Mary praying for them?Is it even Biblical??I don't mean to attack your faith,even my Dad is Catholic though we differ on certain issues when it comes to faith.But the Bible calls both Jesus and the HolySpirit our intercessors.It says that the HolySpirit is groaning before the father.Jesus is called the High priest who's intercerding for us before the father.Mary was just a humanbeing,who was favored by God.When the curtain was torn into two after Jesus died & later rose,we were given direct access to the father. You and I don't need men to be our intercessors whether the saints or Mary.We all have direct access to God.

Mary's perpetual virginity

In connection with the study of Mary during Our Lord's hidden life, we meet the questions of her perpetual virginity, of her Divine motherhood, and of her personal sanctity. Her spotless virginity has been sufficiently considered in the article on the Virgin Birth. The authorities there cited maintain that Mary remained a virgin when she conceived and gave birth to her Divine Son, as well as after the birth of Jesus. Mary's question (Luke 1:34), the angel's answer (Luke 1:35-37), Joseph's way of behaving in his doubt (Matthew 1:19-25), Christ's words addressed to the Jews (John 8:19) show that Mary retained her virginity during the conception of her Divine Son. [65]

As to Mary's virginity after her childbirth, it is not denied by St. Matthew's expressions "before they came together" (1:18), "her firstborn son" (1:25), nor by the fact that the New Testament books repeatedly refer to the "brothers of Jesus". [66] The words "before they came together" mean probably, "before they lived in the same house", referring to the time when they were merely betrothed; but even if the words be understood of marital intercourse, they only state that the Incarnation took place before any such intercourse had intervened, without implying that it did occur after the Incarnation of the Son of God. [67]

The same must be said of the expression, "and he knew her not till she brought forth her firstborn son" (Matthew 1:25); the Evangelist tells us what did not happen before the birth of Jesus, without suggesting that it happened after his birth. [68] The name "firstborn" applies to Jesus whether his mother remained a virgin or gave birth to other children after Jesus; among the Jews it was a legal name [69], so that its occurrence in the Gospel cannot astonish us.

Finally, the "brothers of Jesus" are neither the sons of Mary, nor the brothers of Our Lord in the proper sense of the word, but they are His cousins or the more or less near relatives. [70] The Church insists that in His birth the Son of God did not lessen but consecrate the virginal integrity of His mother (Secret in Mass of Purification). The Fathers express themselves in similar language concerning this privilege of Mary


how dare u talk bad about your forefathers? tell me without the Catholic church would u guy exist? ah ah ah .bunch of rebels

Mary's divine motherhood

Mary's Divine motherhood is based on the teaching of the Gospels, on the writings of the Fathers, and on the express definition of the Church. St. Matthew (1:25) testifies that Mary "brought forth her first-born son" and that He was called Jesus. According to St. John (1:15) Jesus is the Word made flesh, the Word Who assumed human nature in the womb of Mary. As Mary was truly the mother of Jesus, and as Jesus was truly God from the first moment of His conception, Mary is truly the mother of God. Even the earliest Fathers did not hesitate to draw this conclusion as may be seen in the writings of St. Ignatius [72], St. Irenaeus [73], and Tertullian [74]. The contention of Nestorius denying to Mary the title "Mother of God" [75] was followed by the teaching of the Council of Ephesus proclaiming Mary to be Theotokos in the true sense of the word

Devil is deceiving you. You might be serving God under curse.

Exodus 20:4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

If you are still bowing down to Mary or honouring her you are a MUMU!!!
