Catholic Answers- Mary, The Queen Of Heaven!! by Nobody: 7:39pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
Question- What is the answer to a friend who says we are worshiping the Babylonian goddess Ishtar when we honor Mary? He uses Jeremiah 44 as proof because we call Mary the 'Queen of Heaven'. Answer- The fact that a pagan deity was known as the queen of heaven doesn't mean this term can't rightfully be applied, in another sense altogether, to Mary. The pagan king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar, is called the king of kings by Daniel (Dn 2:37), yet this doesn't preclude Jesus from being called by the same title (Rv 17:14; 19:16). Since the destiny of all Christians is to reign as kings and queens with Christ in heaven (Eph 2:12; Rv 1:6; 5:10), and since Mary is the preeminent Christian, there's nothing wrong with giving her the title which Christ, the King of Kings, bestowed upon her in making Mary his mother. www.catholic.com/quickquestions/how-do-i-answer-the-charge-that-catholics-worship-the-pagan-goddess-ishtar-because-we 2 Likes |

When did mary became a queen in heaven? Who made her the queen of heaven? So God is the king and mary is queen(wife)? |

Ukutsgp: Queen doesn't necessarily mean wife. Check out biblical women that became a queen mother by their sons becoming a King. 1 Like |

Mary is not the queen of heaven. Fallacious reasoning. |

Re: Catholic Answers- Mary, The Queen Of Heaven!! by herald9: 10:34pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
@FrancisTony What role did Mary really play in the development of Christendom Was she a martyr? Did she join in the propagation of the Gospel? What did she really do to gain such an exalted position? Ha! You Catholics should stop peddling false beliefs...you're making Christianity more complicated than ever... There are women in the Bible who really suffered for this cause...why should they take the back seat while someone that was divinely chosen-no sweat, take all the glory... ARE 'WE' SERVING AN UNJUST GOD? |
Re: Catholic Answers- Mary, The Queen Of Heaven!! by Nobody: 10:53pm On Nov 01, 2014 |
herald9: She bore the mother of our Lord. She endured all the sufering alone. Her son was humiliated, killed and handed over to her. She wasn't scared to be called a loose woman for getting pregnant without being married. She never disobeyed God like Eve and never doubted like Zachariah. Elizabeth couldn't help but said she was only favoured to receive Mary- Luke1:43 Was she a martyr? Was Peter, Paul, Elijah etc a martyr? Did she join in the propagation of the Gospel? Who told you she never did? Because it wasn't recorded. Wasn't she among them in the upper room during pentecost? What did she really do to gain such an exalted position? By giving birth to the special one. Saviour of the world. Deal with it. Ha! No, you're the one peddling lies by concluding without doing a research. No woman is above her.- Elizabeth salutation is a reference. Ciao 1 Like |

Please my dear brethren, Read the word of God(bible) and let the Holy spirit liberate your mind. Allow the spirit of truth to teach you the very truth that you seek. My prayer for you: Oh God, as many who are zealous for you, but yet on the wrong cause, just like Apostle Paul- may your light liberate them from the shackles of religion. In Jesus name. |
